My communication style

My style of communication can be quite direct, but always in a kind and caring way. The goals of my communication are effectiveness and emotional comfort. I think that well-placed humor in the therapy space can be a beautiful ingredient for the experience, so that may happen every so often.

My journey to mental healthcare

I think you'd have a hard time finding a therapist who hasn't experienced therapy as a client themselves. The experience I had as a client pushed me towards a path that has now become a purpose: to reduce human pain to the greatest possible extent, and to help people find the beauty that can exist in our lives. One person at a time.

My goals for you

Oftentimes, one of the most important actions we can take in therapy is to identify and remove boundaries to achieving goals. I find that once we can break down these barriers, everything that comes after is much more achievable.

Our first session

Well, if we are being honest, we have to kind of grind through some intake stuff. I personally love getting to know some general things about you that might not directly relate to the reason you are coming to therapy. I want to know what kind of music you like, what you do for fun, hobbies, etc. So often, we find something we share in common.

I identify as...

• Male
• Caucasian or White
