Get To Know Me
What would be important for someone to know about working with you?
I take a supportive approach to therapy. I’m not here to judge or push you to talk about things before you’re ready. I meet you where you are and help you work through challenges at a pace that feels right for you.
At the same time, I believe in being honest and practical. Our work will focus on helping you gain clarity, improve communication, and make real changes that carry into your daily life. Clients often appreciate having a space where they feel both supported and gently challenged to grow.

Work HistoryOver the course of my career, I’ve worked in a variety of settings, including residential treatment programs, outpatient care, and community-based services. These experiences have allowed me to support individuals and families facing a wide range of challenges, from substance use and trauma to anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.
Much of my work has involved helping individuals navigate complex life situations, rebuild relationships, and develop healthier ways of thinking and responding. Over time, I’ve developed a strong focus on working with couples and families, as well as supporting men, particularly around fatherhood, identity, and responsibility. These settings have given me the opportunity to work with people at different stages of change, helping them build insight, improve communication, and create meaningful, lasting progress in their lives.
