I help individuals and couples understand what's underneath the conflict, disconnection, addiction, betrayal, and emotional patterns that keep repeating—so you can heal what happened, change what isn't working, and build healthier relationships with yourself and the people you love.
About
Direct, compassionate work that gets beneath the surface.
You may look like you're holding everything together while privately struggling with a relationship that's falling apart, the aftermath of betrayal, alcohol or other addictive behaviors, anger, emotional shutdown, or patterns you can't seem to change. Or maybe the problem isn't what is happening now at all. Old experiences—family dysfunction, emotional neglect, trauma, abandonment, or relationships that taught you not to trust may still be shaping how you respond to the people closest to you.
I work with men, women, and couples who are ready to understand what's actually driving the problem, not just manage the symptoms. Specializing in relationship and couples therapy, affair and betrayal recovery, addiction and substance use, men's issues, emotional regulation, and healing the impact of difficult childhood and relationship experiences.
My style is direct, genuine, practical, and nonjudgmental. I'll challenge you when it's useful, slow things down when we need to understand what's underneath and help you turn insight into actual change.
Whether you're trying to repair a relationship, recover from betrayal, change an addictive pattern, or simply stop repeating the same painful cycle, therapy can help you understand how you got here—and build something different from here.
