About

The stressors of school, work, and relationships can often be overwhelming. Whether you are a young man, adolescent, or parent seeking support, navigating mental health can be confusing and isolating. Rather than focus on what is “wrong,” I work in collaboration to cultivate what is working well. Our work invites change through hard work, awareness, and seeking truth; exploring both bright and dark. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, young adults, athletes and parents. As a former Division I soccer player and youth coach, I’m comfortable with structure and discipline. I also know the value of flow, intuition, and improvisation. Some of the areas I often support clients in is anxiety, depression, suicide ideation, identity, and transitions. I also work with parents and families facing communication challenges.
