Welcome.
How I work.
My approach is rooted in the belief that healing happens in relationship. That includes the relationship you have with yourself, the different parts of you, where they came from, the assumptions about yourself and the world you may have never thought to question. But it also includes what happens between us in the room. I show up as a real presence, not a blank slate, and I pay close attention to what unfolds in our relationship as a window into everything else.
I'm here to think alongside you, to notice what you might not be able to see yet, and to help you make sense of what's been getting in the way, not to tell you what I think you should or shouldn't do. I bring myself into the work, my reactions, my observations, the felt sense of what's happening between us, because I believe that's where some of the most important material lives.
This work asks a lot. And it also gets to hold more than just the hard stuff. There's room for laughter, for meaning, for celebrating what's changing. I'll be there for all of it.
Who I work with.
-
Men
Many of the men I work with arrive with a sense that something isn't quite right, in their relationships, their work, or just in how they feel day to day, but without a clear way to articulate it yet. Some are dealing with anxiety or depression. Others are at an inflection point, questioning their values, their direction, or who they want to become. A lot of it comes back to relationships, with others and with themselves.
This is exactly the kind of work I find most meaningful. I work with men who are ready to slow down and actually look at what's going on, not just manage it.

Adolescents
The teenagers I work with are often navigating intense social dynamics, figuring out who they are and who they want to become, and dealing with pressures that can be hard to put into words. Some arrive knowing something is wrong. Others just know things feel harder than they should.
Teenagers are often more self-aware than they get credit for, and when they feel safe enough to actually open up, real things happen.

Couples & Families
Relationships and families are systems, and when something feels stuck it usually isn't one person's fault. The couples and families I work with range from those in high conflict, where communication has broken down and interactions keep ending the same way, to those who are simply looking to reconnect and go deeper with each other.
My approach is to work with the family system itself as the client. That means looking at patterns, dynamics, and the ways people have learned to interact over time, and finding new ways through.
