Who I am

Thanks for visiting my website! If you're looking for support for your teen, family, or yourself, you're in the right place. I specialize in helping young men and parents navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, ADHD, and communication struggles. My approach is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Non-Violent Communication, and nervous system education to foster lasting growth and resilience.

Beyond therapy, I’m a big nerd who loves board games, movies, the outdoors, and music. I’m also a husband and father who knows how challenging being a parent can be. I connect with teens and young adults in a way that’s engaging, compassionate, and motivating—creating a space where real change can happen.

With 17 years in the psychology field, I’ve had the privilege of helping many families strengthen their relationships and find healthier ways to communicate and solve problems. I’d love the opportunity to support you on your journey.

Let’s be Real

One of my core values is authenticity—I believe therapy should feel like a real, human connection. The emotions you or your son are struggling with? I’ve been there too. The rich, meaningful life you want for him is the same kind of life I strive for myself. I make it a priority to acknowledge our shared humanity and remind young men that struggle is a natural part of growth.

I also love bringing my passions into my work—whether it’s board games, fitness, music, or my love of travel—because connection happens when we share what makes us come alive.
