YOU’RE A GOOD GUY
You’re here because you want to be a good husband and an engaged father.
But when conflict hits, you shut down, get reactive, or say what you think you're supposed to say just to keep the peace. You’re not the only one caught in this cycle.
Most men were never taught what to do instead.
Unlock the tools you’ve been missing.
With over a decade of clinical experience, I’ll help you learn how to stop the cycles of miscommunication, really connect, and build a strong and lasting marriage.
“I have experienced better communication and an improved relationship with my wife.
I have benefited from being able to discuss and process my thoughts and experiences openly and without judgement. I have appreciated having the regular routine for consistency and accountability to continue to think about, talk about, and take actions relative to my experiences and toward my goals.”

Helping Men in Relationships Reconnect, Repair, and Grow
Whether it’s communication issues, anxiety or depression, unresolved trauma, ADHD, or emotional distance, let’s start unpacking what’s really going on so that you can feel more secure in yourself and your relationship.
I work with men struggling with challenges like:
- Shutting down emotionally
- Reacting strongly in conflict
- Feeling like roommates rather than a couple
- ADHD or follow‑through issues
- Overwhelm in parenting
- Work stress spilling into home life
- Past relationship trauma, as a kid or adult
- Infidelity and betrayal
- Depression or irritability
- Difficulty expressing emotions
- Heightened anxiety or existential worry
- Healing after a divorce or breakup
Because these challenges are so common, I focus on three key areas where men often get stuck and where the right kind of therapy can make a real difference.
Men & Marriage
Therapy for men in committed partnerships who want to stay present, communicate better and build a relationship they love.

Trauma & EMDR
Feel like you shut down or blow up a little easier than you should? Past experiences might be hijacking your emotions. EMDR helps heal the unconscious impacts of the past.
ADHD in Relationships
Counseling for men whose ADHD symptoms, like reactivity, forgetfulness, or rejection sensitivity, are disrupting life with their partners and friends.

This Therapy Is Different
This isn’t generic therapy. It’s focused, personalized work for men who’ve built successful careers and want their relationships to feel just as solid.
Often, they’ve been relying on the same strategic thinking and drive that’s made them effective leaders at work but those strengths don’t always translate at home.
With my approach you’ll uncover where your strategies are backfiring and apply proven psychological principles that don’t feel stuffy, fluffy or condescending.
