About

If you’ve been struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship problems, or any other issues, then I think you deserve a happier, more satisfying life. And, you can discover that professional insight, tools, and guidance through counseling and therapy sometimes really can be the difference that makes the difference.However, unless you take the first step to solve your problems, they will never go away. Individuals, couples/pods, etc with a desire to open their relationship or address challenges that have occurred after opening up will find an experienced professional to help you navigate both.

As a systems trained therapist I believe in the power of relationships. My therapeutic approach honors and explores key relationships in a client’s life as they pertain to the problem that the client brings to therapy, and fostering a strong therapeutic alliance, integrating compassionate understanding to create a safe environment to explore client needs.

In addition, he has earned PHD in the field of social work and researcher in the fields of gerontology, human sexuality, intimacy, relationships, and masculine studies.
