Specialties:

I specialize in working with men who feel isolated or struggle in social and romantic settings due to anxiety, low self-worth, or past emotional wounds. Many of my clients have internalized messages that discourage vulnerability, leaving them disconnected from both themselves and others. I help men break free from shame-driven narratives and rigid expectations, fostering deeper connections and a more authentic sense of self.

Clinical Style and Orientation:

I help clients identify core beliefs and perspectives about self and others, and recognize how these shape personal history and present experiences. Depending on individual needs, I integrate values-based living, mindfulness techniques, and accountability strategies to break unhelpful patterns in both individual and relational domains. My approach empowers clients to shift their self-talk, build confidence, and form more fulfilling relationships.
