(he/him)
I ONLY SEE ADULT CLIENTS and I DON'T SEE COUPLES. I’ve wanted to be a therapist since I was 18; I knew that I was a very self-aware, emotionally sensitive, and insightful individual. I have a genuine desire to get to know each client as a human being. I find it very easy to listen to others and am interested in solving personal problems. I like to observe and analyze people. In high school, my friends always confided in me about their problems because they saw that I was trustworthy. Before becoming a therapist, I was a medic in the US Army. Whether you are struggling with porn and sex addiction, depression, anxiety, or trauma, I’m honored to support you. I specialize in helping adults get to know themselves and feel empowered to advocate for their well-being. As we work together, you will reflect, expand your awareness, and gain tools to manage adversity and grow.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Personal Development I would be happy to work with you to help you reach your personal development goals. In sessions, I use tools to assess self-reflection, organization, physical fitness, diet, sleep patterns, and work and personal relationships to help you find ways to improve your life and interactions with others. Relationship Issues If you are struggling with relationship issues, I would be honored to work with you. These relationships could be personal, occupational, religious, etc. When helping clients experiencing relational conflict, I often use communication tools, self-awareness, role playing, and empathy to help clients manage and deal with relationship issues.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I work with adults from diverse walks of life and am particularly interested in supporting Asian Americans and sex (including but not limited to porn) addicts.
