A quote that has always brought me courage, "Into the Great Perhaps," moves us to embrace the unknown. It's an invitation to dream and a challenge to have the courage to step into uncertainty. This concept deeply resonates with my therapeutic approach. I emphasize that embracing uncertainty is where growth and transformation occur. In therapy, we'll explore the uncharted territories of your thoughts, emotions, and relationships and view life's challenges as opportunities for personal growth. Together, we'll journey toward self-discovery and personal development. Life is filled with uncertainties, and navigating the intricacies of relationships can often resemble an unmapped voyage. Yet, within these unknowns lies the potential for healing and transformation. Let's uncover what the "Great Perhaps" means for you. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with years of experience, I provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for you to explore your experiences. I firmly believe in the resilience of the human spirit and our capacity for positive change, even amidst adversity. *Currently only offering recurring appointments between 9am-5pm.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, clients can expect a collaborative and compassionate experience. I believe that therapy is a journey we embark on together. We'll begin by exploring and conceptualizing the challenges or issues you're facing, aiming to gain a deeper understanding of your unique situation. We'll also delve into your values and goals, as they are instrumental in shaping the therapeutic process. Most importantly, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space where you can openly express your thoughts and feelings.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a marriage and family therapist, I blend professional expertise and personal strengths. With a loving marriage and three energetic boys, I deeply understand family dynamics. My commitment to strengthening bonds isn't just a profession; it reflects my values. I bring empathy, patience, and resilience, honed as a husband and father. Effective communication, problem-solving, and life balance are skills I apply to help clients build fulfilling relationships.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

Throughout my career, I have focused on serving individuals and families facing a wide array of challenges. Whether you are a family in crisis, a parent seeking guidance, a child in need of support, or an individual striving to uncover purpose, I am committed to providing a safe and empathetic space where we can collaboratively explore and nurture your unique journey towards growth and well-being.

My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) by helping clients accept their thoughts and feelings without judgment while guiding them to align their actions with their core values, fostering resilience and well-being. ACT also involves mindfulness practices to enhance awareness and promote a more flexible, value-driven approach to life challenges.

Family Therapy

I view the family as an interconnected unit, concentrating on the relationships and dynamics among its members rather than individual actions. I guide exploration into how each person's behaviors and feelings impact the family system, striving to cultivate healthier interactions and bring positive transformation to the family as a whole.

Existential

I assist individuals in exploring the fundamental questions surrounding existence, meaning, and freedom. I guide them to confront life's uncertainties, encouraging personal responsibility and supporting the search for meaning, ultimately empowering them to make authentic choices and lead purposeful lives in line with their values and beliefs.
