I am Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in attachment, self-esteem, and relationships. I am trained in EMDR for trauma, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Gottman method for Couples. I work with adolescents and adults. I enjoy helping you find your unique nature and expression. My aim is to help you live life with purpose, love, and compassion. I am a father of two small children, a husband, and lover of life and nature.
Our first session will be getting to know each other. I will likely ask many questions about your life and how life circumstances have brought you into to therapy. My hope is that by the end of our first session together is that you will walk away with more hope than you had before coming in. My other hope is that you feel connected and seen. Additionally, we will lay out the framework for what treatment will look like so you can engage in life in a meaningful way quickly.
I hold unique compassion and understanding for others who may be going through an extremely challenging time. What stands out is how people walk away feeling more understood, seen, and motivated for change. After meeting with me, people are able to experience difficult emotions while feeling safe to do so. I use humor, compassion, and understanding as my main approach.
Are you tired of the incessant chatter in your head and wish you could find a moment of peace and inner calmness? Or maybe you wish you could feel something… or just anything at all. Life can sometimes be a challenging and confusing experience. It may also be a joyful and meaningful one. I help clients find just that. Through a collaborative experience, I bring openness, mindfulness, and curiosity to help people find their strength and courage and move through life in meaningful way.
