My Approach to Therapy

Life is relationship. Whether it's a relationship with one's mind or body, other people, work, activities, or nature, life is an ongoing relationship. So, how do we operate in relationship with harmony, joy, courage, and love? The answer to that question is the essence of what contemplative counseling is all about. In the process we will become more naturally who we are, face our fears, find humor and purpose in the mysteriousness of life, and discover how we most naturally give our gifts to the world. I want to assist you in becoming a healthier person who is more engaged and present with life. We can do this together. I love working with couples (very much) and people dealing with other relationship issues, be it family, friends, work, etc. I also work with adult and adolescent men with men-related issues such as intimate partnerships, sexuality, work life, and awareness of social conditioning. I run a men's group on Wednesday evenings from 6:00-7:30 called Brother Roots. Please feel free to reach out. I would love to hear from you and potentially work together. And if we are not a good fit, then hopefully our conversation will aid you in finding the right counselor for you at this time in your life. Take good care.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

Couples Work & Relationship Issues: My own family and intimate partnership are my greatest teachers in this area. The closer we get with someone, the more challenging the relationship becomes. Our deepest patterns, fears, and hurts show themselves fully. This is both why relationships are so challenging and fruitful. I love working with couples trying to deepen their connection and live into a more harmonious union, people struggling with family issues, and those looking for more aligned and supportive friendships. Men's Work: Men have a unique challenge in this country. We have been given so much and it has made us emotionally weak. At the same time, we receive resentment from gender identity groups who have not materially benefited from patriarchy like us. We need to feel our pain. We need to acknowledge and own our shortcomings and ignorance. We need to ask for support. And we need to find our true backbone in the integrity of our Hearts.

Groups I Work With

I best serve those wanting to grow into their unique expression of inherent goodness. If you value the importance of relationship in true happiness and purpose, if you are interested in understanding your inner world in order to best serve the outer world, if you desire to cultivate your capacity to be present, loving, wise and courageous in all life circumstances, we will likely work well together. I don’t want to just help you reduce symptoms. I want you to know who you truly are ?
