My Approach to Therapy

Most of us are pretty good at pushing through. At some point, pushing through stops being a strategy and starts being the problem. If you're here, you've probably already figured that out. I primarily work with men, first responders, and couples navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, and relationship stress. A lot of my clients tell me they waited longer than they needed to. You don't have to. Therapy can feel foreign, especially if asking for help isn't easy. I work with individuals and couples, and I bring specific training in trauma (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)), anxiety, and relationships. But what clients come back and tell me isn't about any of that. It's that they felt genuinely heard. Therapy with me is direct and built around you specifically, not a formula. If you've never done therapy before, or tried it once and it didn't click, I get it. The whole thing can feel a bit odd at first. That's normal. Most of the work happens once we get past that part. You don't have to have it figured out before you reach out. A free consultation is a good place to start.
