About My Clients

My ideal client is someone who wants help now. (Currently accepting new patients as of January 2026.) They have seen issues at home, work, or school. They want help to get back to "doing life" and not just existing. Often they are experiencing depression, anxiety, and problems sleeping. I do not prescribe controlled substances.

My Background and Approach

As a previous Spanish teacher and school counselor I have learned to work with people from all walks of life. As a special needs dad, I often "get it" when other don't understand. While medication may be required, I have found that at times supplements and/or counseling may be all that is needed, preventing on-going expenses and side effects. Many patients have poor sleep that affects everything else in life. Being trained in CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I), I can provide helpful hints that may be enough; but, as we are all different, some may need treatment with the full CBT-I program.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that every person is unique and special--no one is "normal." As the dad to a nonverbal, autistic son, I "get it" when working with families with special needs individuals and can relate to those with special needs.
