You give and give to others yet still end up feeling unseen or unappreciated? Maybe you're the person everyone can count on...the one who keeps the peace, anticipates what others need, and says "yes" even when you really want to say "no." From the outside, you may seem caring and capable. Inside, you might feel exhausted, anxious, or quietly resentful. You may panic when someone is disappointed in you, second-guess your decision to say "no", or wonder whether you're asking for too much. In therapy, we'll notice what happens when you want to speak up, set a limit, or choose yourself: but feel pulled to take care of everyone else.

I specialize in working with individuals from a depth psychological lens, meaning that my work is rooted in a deep respect for and inclusion of the mysteries and paradoxes of life. I believe that we each have a unique path to finding and cultivating the most authentic and nourishing possibilities for ourselves. I specialize in work with eating disorders, body autonomy, and the intersection of psychology and spirituality.

I’m Nick, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience in mental health. I primarily work with men, including gamers who may not always connect with traditional therapy.

I understand that gaming can be more than entertainment. It can be a place for challenge, connection, competition, escape, and self-expression. When helpful, we can incorporate video games into sessions as a shared activity or a way to better understand how you respond to stress, frustration, communication, and other people. Gaming is always optional, and traditional talk therapy remains available.

I then pursued my Masters of Social Work degree and graduated in 2008 from the University of Montana. This graduate program had a focus on providing a social justice and integrated practitioner perspective. I have an eclectic style that can be tailored to each unique individual. My primary therapeutic methods include Mindfulness Based, Holistic, Exposure, Narrative, Cognitive and Behavioral, Strengths Based & Solution Focused Therapies. I provide a non-judgmental and compassionate environment that often helps people feel comfortable. A true passion of mine is structuring therapeutic activities for clients to express, process, increase self-awareness, and de-stress from life’s challenging and developmental experiences.

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist licensed in California with 17 years of experience working as a Mental Health Clinician and a Behavioral Therapist.

I have over 7 years of experience working with depression and anxiety disorders, trauma, couples, and other severe mental health concerns. My goal is to create a comfortable, safe space where you can begin your therapeutic journey with confidence and without judgment. Together, we can openly explore what you want in—and out of—life. If you don't know what that looks like yet, that's okay. We can figure it out together. Your goals may also change along the way, and therapy should have the flexibility to change with you.

I have 15+ years of experience working with individuals and couples who have experienced trauma, both directly and indirectly. My specialty is those going through a loss, suffered emotional trauma, or are victims of violence. Unaddressed individual trauma can often lead to anxiety, depression and difficulties in developing / maintaining loving relationships. Couples can struggle with unhealthy patterns of communication and need alternative tools to better understand each other. With a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach I support clients facing issues such as anxiety, grief, life changes and relationship challenges.
