About

Welcome. I help men learn practical, evidence-based skills and habits to thrive in today's challenging world.

I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which works to change the thoughts and behaviors that impede your progress, so you can create inspiring goals and move your life in a positive direction.

Prior to being a therapist, I was a professional athlete, a high school Spanish teacher, and I worked in tech in San Francisco. So yes, I know all about long work hours and high-stress jobs.

You don't have to stay stuck in stress. It's okay to get help. Schedule a free phone consultation today and let's talk.
