Therapists

You’ve seen behind the curtain. You know the theories, the interventions, the neatly packaged insights. There’s nothing a therapist can tell you that you couldn’t learn from ChatGPT or didn’t already dissect in supervision.

I love working with other therapists because you don’t need generic advice or surface-level reflections. As a NARM therapist, I focus on depth-oriented, experiential work that goes beyond intellectual understanding. I won’t reduce you to a set of techniques or throw clichés at you like, “What would you tell yourself if you were your client?” Instead, we’ll explore what’s actually alive for you beyond roles, beyond frameworks, beyond what you already know.

If you're looking for a space where you can bring your full self, not just your professional identity, I’d love to work with you.

Anxiety

Anxiety isn’t just racing thoughts or panic attacks. It can look like overthinking, perfectionism, people-pleasing, irritability, and trouble sleeping. For many of my clients, anxiety is a long-standing survival strategy that helped them stay safe in unpredictable or demanding environments growing up.

In our work together, we won’t just focus on symptom management. We’ll explore the deeper patterns underneath your anxiety, where they came from, and how they show up in your relationships, work, and parenting. My goal is to help you build a more flexible, grounded relationship with yourself, where anxiety isn’t running the show.

Religious Trauma

Religious beliefs can be a source of meaning, connection, and comfort—but they can also be a source of harm. If your experiences with faith left you feeling shame, fear, or disconnected from yourself, you’re not alone.

What is Religious Trauma?

Religious Trauma occurs when religious teachings, community dynamics, or spiritual beliefs cause deep emotional and psychological distress. It can stem from rigid purity culture, fear-based teachings, authoritarian leadership, or rejection from a faith community.

What is Spiritual Abuse?

Spiritual Abuse happens when religious beliefs or authority figures are used to manipulate, control, or harm. This can include coercion, punishment for questioning beliefs, or being told your suffering is a result of lacking faith or not praying hard enough.

What is Deconstruction?

Deconstruction is the process of critically examining and questioning religious beliefs, often leading to a shift in faith, a new spiritual path, or stepping away from religion entirely. This process can feel isolating, disorienting, or even terrifying—especially if your sense of identity or community was tied to your faith.

A Secular, Judgment-Free Approach

I grew up as a Christian Scientist, so I understand the specific language, thought patterns, and cultural expectations that come with certain religious upbringings. Whether you’re untangling childhood conditioning, processing religious trauma, or navigating deconstruction, I provide a space that is completely secular and free from any spiritual agenda. My focus is on your healing, not on prescribing what you should believe.

Men's Issues

A lot of men come to therapy because they’re dealing with stress, struggling with anger, or (let’s be honest) because their wife told them to. Maybe you’re feeling burned out, frustrated, or disconnected from the people in your life. Maybe you’re tired of feeling like you have to handle everything alone.

Therapy doesn’t have to be about digging through your childhood or endlessly talking about feelings (unless you want to). My approach is practical and straightforward. We’ll focus on what’s actually bothering you and how to handle it in a way that works for you. Whether it’s learning how to manage stress, respond differently to anger, or figure out why certain patterns keep showing up in your relationships, we’ll work together in a way that makes sense for you.

You don’t have to fit a stereotype to benefit from therapy. You just have to be willing to show up. If it’s important to you, it’s important to me.

Divorce

More than just a legal process, divorce is a profound emotional transition. Whether you’re initiating it, in the middle of it, or adjusting to life after, it can bring up grief, uncertainty, and even relief all at once. You might be questioning your identity, worried about how this will impact your kids, or struggling with guilt and self-doubt. You’re grieving the loss of the life you thought you were going to have and creating a new identity.

If you have a history of complex or attachment trauma or have experienced narcissistic abuse or coercive control, divorce can stir up old wounds: fear of abandonment, difficulty trusting yourself, or patterns of people-pleasing and self-sacrifice. You may be feeling the weight of expectations, unsure of how to advocate for yourself while still trying to ‘keep the peace.’

In therapy, we’ll work together to help you navigate this transition with clarity and self-compassion. We’ll explore what’s coming up for you emotionally, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build a foundation of trust in yourself moving forward. Whether you need support in co-parenting, processing grief, or redefining your sense of self, I provide a space where you don’t have to do it alone.

Developmental Trauma

My primary specialty is working with adults, typically parents themselves, who experienced a traumatic or neglectful childhood. This does not necessarily mean you had “capital T Trauma” like physical or sexual abuse; complex trauma means you experienced longer, ongoing pervasive neglect, lack of attunement, unpredictability, abuse, or feeling like you had to take care of others before your time. You might struggle with trusting others, feeling like you're “too much” or “not enough,” or constantly seeking approval. You might be highly independent, but underneath, there’s a fear of needing help. Or maybe relationships feel confusing. You want closeness but pushing people away at the same time. Therapy can help untangle old patterns, build new ways of relating to yourself and others, and create a sense of safety that wasn’t there before.

Through exploration and depth-oriented inquiry, I’ll help you determine what strategies you developed to survive as a child, how to have compassion for those strategies, and how to get to the root question of what you really want for yourself now that those childhood fears are no longer a threat.
