My name is Brian, and I’m honored you’re considering me for your therapy journey. Since I can remember I have enjoyed teaching, mentoring and, coaching. I have a unique background in crisis management, trauma, EMDR, and substance abuse. I use a straightforward but non-judgmental approach in providing guidance and alternatives to one’s given situation. I enjoy helping my clients learn new and updated methods of building resiliency, coping skills, and conflict management via an integrative, and solution-focused approach.
Deciding to create change takes courage, dedication, and determination. We are happy that you have chosen to consider us as your provider and partner in your life story. It may feel overwhelming, frightening, or like walking a tightrope at times; it takes humility to begin again. Here we will help you achieve your goals. Thank you for considering us.
I often use an Integrative Approach with aspects of CBT, DBT, Solution & motivation Focused techniques, trauma-informed CBT, EMDR, and Radical Honesty. This helps clients by providing a well-structured approach with clear direction. I also have a diverse background in law enforcement and as a veteran.
I’m best positioned to serve adults who are self aware enough to know something needs to change, but who feel stuck in old emotional patterns, relationship dynamics, or survival strategies that no longer fit the life they want. My work resonates most with clients who value clarity, compassion, and practical tools they can use outside the session. The clients who tend to benefit most include those who: • Carry trauma histories and want to understand their triggers, reactions, and emotional patterns without shame or pathologizing • Struggle with intense emotions—tantrum like reactions, shutdowns, panic, or overwhelm—and want to build emotional regulation skills • Are navigating relationship stress and want to break cycles, communicate more clearly, and show up with more grounded presence • Are motivated for insight and appreciate a therapist who can name patterns directly but with warmth, respect, and empowerment • Want structure and tools, not just conversation—clients who benefit from worksheets, visuals, summaries, and clear next steps • Are rebuilding identity after trauma, addiction recovery, major life transitions, or long-standing self criticism • Value a strengths based approach, where their resilience, clarity, and courage are highlighted rather than their deficits These clients often come in saying things like: “I’m tired of reacting like a younger version of myself,” “I want to understand why I do this,” or “I know I’m capable of more emotional control, I just don’t know how to get there.” They’re ready for a therapist who can blend emotional attunement with practical guidance, someone who can help them understand their internal world, build new habits, and feel more in control of their story.

I find Brian to be earnest and truthful. He provides me the balance I need of letting me explore my ow thoughts honestly, while also guiding me in a productive direction when I find myself in a loop.

Brian has been truly life changing. His approach, demeanor, and ability to expand my mind and lead me to the answers I needed to find are incomparable. I would recommend Brian to anyone! He makes me feel good about myself while addressing the key issues that I originally started to see him for. Thank you, Brian, for changing my life!
