I specialize in sex, drugs/alcohol, and relationships emphasizing men's mental health. We'll work at a pace that you feel comfortable and challenge you if we both feel that you can do more. I believe in establishing rapport, reflecting on your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, examining how the past may be affecting you now, bringing awareness to things that you might not be conscious about, addressing uncomfortable social situations, and planning for your continued growth after we've finished meeting.

While I was a patient in a rehabilitation facility, I looked up to my counselors Jane and Randy and wanted to follow in their footsteps to help others recover from alcohol and other substances. That was one of the most healing times in my life that helped change the relationship I had with myself, my friends, intimate relationships, and family. Now I want to help those who are seeking to do the work to heal and continue to grow.

Healing may take time, and therapy is not a quick fix. It's realization or transformation, that can take a lot of inner work where you might be faced with things that are uncomfortable. Everyone's journey will be unique, the path isn't always linear, and sometimes things may seem to get worse before they feel better. Often times, clients have to learn how to forgive and love themselves for things they've done and heal from things that were done to them. Be patient with yourself and the process.
