My Approach to Therapy

I work with clients across Washington state and the greater Seattle area, offering individual therapy using insight-oriented, and mindfulness-based approaches as well as EMDR. I meet with clients using an online or telehealth platform. My focus is on helping adult men facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions; working with them to build the self-awareness and tools needed to shift old patterns of thinking and behavior that no longer serve them. I help my clients to slow down, look inward, and meet life more skillfully. When trauma or emotional overwhelm occurs, the nervous system can get "stuck" in the experience. I am trained in EMDR, a technique that works to supporting and strengthen a client’s own nervous system's capacity to process difficult events, allowing that stuck experience to move and resolve. Sessions run about 55 minutes, with our first few focused on clarifying your goals. I know taking that first step isn't easy. If you'd like to explore whether we're a good fit, reach out to schedule a free 20-minute consultation - I'll answer your questions and we can talk through what you're looking for. I look forward to meeting you.

Groups I Work With

I serve clients in Washington state and the greater Seattle area by providing individual therapy, EMDR therapy, and trauma therapy in an online telehealth format. My focus is working with men on issues including trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I use EMDR, a therapeutic approach that works with the nervous system to calm traumatic symptoms, alongside insight and mindfulness therapy that helps clients gain perspective and better address emotional distress and life stressors. Sessions run about 55 minutes; we'll start by understanding what brought you in and what your goals are for therapy. I provide free 20-minute consultations to answer your questions and see if we'll be a good fit to work together.
