I work with adults and adolescents facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, personality concerns, substance use, and life stress. My approach is warm, supportive, and practical.

My philosophy is very Jungian-based. I offer a masculine perspective to help those in learning about how to help relate to themselves better and then offer better relationships with others. My work is centered on the truth that when we see reality we are set free. The matrix keeps you stuck and enslaved. My mission is to help people free themselves so they can connect to their true nature and feel more fulfilled. I use health, nature, sexuality, and spirit to help others.
Looking for a therapist who'll be honest with you — not just agreeable? I offer direct, compassionate care, all from the comfort of wherever you are. I'll validate what you're feeling when it needs to be heard, and gently challenge you when it's time to look at things differently. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we'll work together to reshape the narratives keeping you stuck and help you see your life through a new lens.
If you are constantly living on high alert, feeling overwhelmed by past trauma, recent painful event, or managing the high-pressure anxiety of the tri-state area, you do not have to carry the weight alone.

Because of my background in psychiatric care, I am uniquely equipped to help you feel safe in your skin using simple, practical tools like CBT and gentle body-centered practices. Whether you want to integrate a, faith-based perspective into your healing or simply need a grounded space to process your pain, we will work entirely at your own pace to help you find genuine peace.
