Life is messy, and seeking help can be a tricky and nerve-wracking proposition. Piled onto the problems of life comes the added discomfort of never quite knowing what you’ll get with a new therapist. Personality and style is arguably more important than a therapist’s theoretical approach, so finding a good fit is seriously important. With that in mind, let’s get down to business: I’m a curious and contemplative guy, eager to give you space, hear you out, and sit with you as we ponder the most challenging questions of life. My humor is wry, I question everything, and I’m far more interested in exploring possibilities than in telling you what to do. Central to my practice is the idea that you are not the problem – the problem is the problem. You are the leading authority on your own experience, and together we’ll collaborate in examining the problem’s influence over you and your life, uncover what maintains and encourages it to remain, and reflect on and celebrate those moments in which you’ve thrived in spite of the problem’s presence. Ultimately, we will work together to write the next chapter in your life. If I sound like your guy, pick up the phone (or mouse) and bring me your story!

On a personal note…

I’m an avid gravel cyclist and bikepacker, deeply in love with solitary jaunts far into the depths of the wild. When I’m not sleeping under the stars, you can find me immersed in creative projects, caring for my menagerie of colorful reptiles, or buried in an ever-present backlog of podcasts, articles, and philosophy books. You can bet money that I’m watching that new science fiction show, and I could talk your ear off about my 3D printer over a euro-style board game!
