(he/him)
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (Lic. 150726) who helps children, teens, adults, and couples tackle anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, substance use, and life’s endless plot twists. Think of me as part therapist, part guide, and occasional reality-check provider. Using evidence-based therapy, collaboration, and a touch of humor, I help clients build resilience, gain insight, and discover they’re often far stronger than they give themselves credit for.
Expect a therapist who is positive, compassionate, and genuinely curious about your story. The first session isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about getting to know you. I’ll meet you where you are, help you feel heard, and work alongside you to turn challenges into opportunities for growth, hope, and meaningful change.
Therapy with me isn’t about lying on a couch while I mysteriously ask, “And how does that make you feel?” It’s about rolling up our sleeves and tackling life’s challenges together. As a CBT therapist, I help clients identify the sneaky thoughts, habits, and patterns that keep them stuck—and then teach them how to outsmart them. My approach combines evidence-based therapy, a healthy dose of humor, and an unwavering belief that people are far more resilient than they realize. Together, we turn overwhelming problems into manageable goals using the SMART framework, building confidence, self-esteem, and momentum along the way. My mission is simple: help you become the strongest, most authentic version of yourself while proving that hope is much tougher—and much more stubborn—than any challenge life throws your way.
I am best positioned to serve individuals of all ages who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, life transitions, and personal growth challenges. I work well with clients who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, misunderstood, or disconnected and are seeking a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space to heal and grow. My approach is especially beneficial for clients who want to improve emotional regulation, communication, coping skills, self-awareness, confidence, and overall well-being while building hope, resilience, and healthier patterns in their daily lives.
