About My Clients

I work with adults from all walks of life - whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship and life stress, military issues, or severe mental illness. Some clients feel stuck in survival mode; others are searching for direction or meaning. whatever brings you in, I provide a collaborative, respectful space to build insight and apply practical strategies tailored to your goals and values.

My Background and Approach

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with specialized experience treating mood disorders, trauma, personality disorders, ADHD and more. My approach is grounded in many of today's most effective, evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, ART, and ACT, which I apply empathetically and flexibly to match each client's unique goals and values. I've provided care in Air Force hospital settings and worked closely with flyers, intelligence, and other special duty personnel, gaining insight into high-performance and high-pressure roles. In addition to therapy, I offer psychological testing to clarify diagnoses, guide treatment, help with second options, and support major life decisions. Whether you're navigating a specific challenge or working toward long-term growth, I offer a collaborative and practical approach that's tailored to you.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe therapy should be a space where people of all backgrounds, beliefs, and identities feel respected, heard, and empowered. I'm committed to honoring each client's autonomy and values without imposing my own. I also care deeply about expanding access to therapy, especially for those who've traditionally felt unsure whether it was for them. That includes making therapy a place where men can feel comfortable, supported, and engaged in meaningful work. Everyone deserves the chance to explore their challenges and goals with dignity and clarity.
