Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) helping men struggling with sex addiction and porn addiction regain control and build healthier, more productive lives. When unwanted sexual behaviors feel hard to stop, it can be painful, discouraging, and damaging to relationships. Many men find themselves stuck despite a genuine desire to change. If you or someone you care about is struggling, I offer a free consultation to explore whether working together may be a good fit. I specialize in helping men overcome porn addiction, sex addiction, and compulsive sexual behavior through a structured, supportive recovery coaching program. With over 16 years of sobriety and recovery, I understand the pain of not being able to stop, and even worse, not knowing what to do to change. With a deep understanding of the nature of sex addiction and the right recovery tools, you can stop and build the life you've always wanted.

If you're looking for a therapist who mostly nods quietly and asks, “How does that make you feel?” without really engaging, I’m probably not your person. And honestly? That’s okay. I always tell clients that I’m not everyone’s cup of tea—but I am a lot of people’s cup of tea. Therapy with me is active, honest, collaborative, and deeply human. I’ll laugh with you, sit with you in the hard stuff, celebrate your wins, and gently call you out when you’re stuck in patterns that aren’t serving you anymore. Because if I spent our sessions telling you everything you do is perfect and amazing, then what are we doing here? I tend to work best with people who are incredibly self-aware but still feel stuck. The overthinkers. The people-pleasers. The perfectionists. The emotional suppressors. The “I’m fine” humans who are very much not fine. Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, ADHD, self-esteem, relationship challenges, burnout, life transitions, or feeling exhausted from carrying the weight of everything on their own. My approach is warm, direct, and practical. We’ll build insight, challenge patterns, develop healthier ways of coping, and work toward meaningful change without making therapy feel robotic, clinical, or like another item on your to-do list. Starting therapy can feel weird, vulnerable, awkward, or honestly just exhausting—especially if you’re used to handling everything yourself. You don’t need to have the perfect words or your whole life figured out before reaching out. We’ll meet human-to-human, figure it out together, and see if it feels like the right fit.
