Approach to Therapy:
I approach therapy in a relaxed and relational way. My aim is to offer an authentic and warm presence, supporting clients on their road to healing—whatever that might look like for them. I seek to embody compassion and empathy, meeting individuals where they are at, and embracing life's many nuances. The destigmatization of therapy for men and the integration of positive masculinities into therapeutic work are particularly strong interests of mine. As your therapist, I will strive to be someone who is in your corner, a supportive resource for you as you find your footing, and a collaborator in sitting with feelings and seeking solutions.
Approach to Wellness:
For me, wellness can mean many things, and I am always seeking new ways to meet my emotional, mental, and physical needs. Some of my favorite approaches of the moment include taking hikes with my partner and dog, spending time with friends and family, playing racquetball, meditating, gardening, trying new restaurants, cooking at home, reading fiction and poetry, going to thrift stores, and watching reality TV, football, and The Sopranos.
