ACT is a specific form of cognitive behavioral therapy. It is the most directive form of therapy I have the most experience in. The basic premise behind this work is deeply accepting where you are at without putting blame on you for your thoughts and feelings. We can then move forward, working to thoroughly identify the type of person you hope to be and take the necessary steps to get there. I can also definitely use traditional CBT if

Interpersonal Therapy focuses on the therapeutic relationship as a means for experimentation and change. So many mental health struggles are rooted in relational difficulties, whether it is depression, trauma, anxiety or many others. Often times, we get stuck in behavior patterns that are rooted in our childhood experiences. Utilizing IPT, we can identify difficulties that come up in our therapeutic relationship, work to heal them and then apply the change to your personal relationships.

I am a Person-Centered Therapist first and foremost. PCT focuses on the core of what it means to be a therapist: behaving non-judgmentally, providing unwavering support and relating in an authentic way. Often times therapists will try to mold you to be a certain way, but I strive to allow you to make your own decisions and be a guide. I like to think of PCT as my base for all other work in therapy, allowing me to give structured help, but only in the ways you consent.

Gearing our sessions to your needs and desires is my greatest priority.

ADHD can be really confusing because there is so much more going on there than just attention deficits and hyperactivity. At its core, ADHD can effect all aspects of your executive functioning including, emotional regulation, planning, motivation and more. When working with people with ADHD, I find it helpful to provide the concrete solutions we all want, but also explore the shame associated with the disorder as well grief about not being able to preform in the same ways as the neurotypical.

Everyone needs balance in their lives. As men, it can be easy to neglect parts of ourselves that we might have never really listened to or are perhaps even afraid to get to know. You deserve love and care just as much as anyone else does. Let me help you find how to get your needs met by others and more importantly, yourself.

Relationships with other people are part of life for everyone. Isolation or dysfunctional relationships can be so draining and debilitating. Together we can get to the root of what is causing your relationship issues whether its with family, friends or romantic partners.
