(he/him)
With over 19 years as a therapist, I am a graduate of a top program at the University of Southern California (USC). Mood, relationship, self-esteem in one or more areas, lack of joy, or if you need to put it into your own words, I’m here to make your mission into our mission. My approach is to be direct, solution-focused, and adjust to your progress and developing needs. Our work will touch on all or most areas of your life. Having worked successfully with clients for many years, I customize treatment to your needs and prompt you to move on your goals. Results are what matter. Sometimes taking a single action can set the rest of your life on the right course.
In the first session, I will assess your needs. We will uncover a lot about your life, situation, what we can do in therapy to support you.
I view clients' needs from the perspective of how we can go beyond normal functioning to optimize life experiences, enhancing mood, relationships, and engagement in activities that foster personal fulfillment.
Do you find yourself overthinking, stuck in ruts in your personal life or relationships, or wishing you could feel more inspired in your work or beyond? I am here for you to explore your real issues and wants in life. I work with people of all genders and specialize in working with men’s issues because being a man in an ever-changing social landscape makes it hard to stay in touch with who you are and how to act.
I use existential therapy to help you step back and ask the real questions about your direction, your relationships, happiness, and the kind of life you actually want to build.
I use CBT with clients who struggle to regulate their emotions or feel out of control in their responses.
We bring those patterns to the surface so they lose their grip.
