Who I Am & What I Believe
I am a therapist and father. My approach centers on building genuine, trusting relationships with his clients, using evidence-based methods tailored to what each person needs. I hold firmly to the belief that "no matter how hard things feel right now, people are capable of real, lasting change when they have the right support."

I work with individuals, couples, and families facing depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, and difficult life transitions. My clients span a wide range of ages and backgrounds, from college students under academic pressure to adults navigating crisis and acute psychological distress.
