Why I do this work:

I know what it’s like to feel like you don’t fit the mold. Though I hold privilege as a white, cisgender, heterosexual man, I’ve never quite matched the “expected” version of masculinity. Growing up with a soft, gentle approach to life, I faced bullying and pressure to conform—but those experiences taught me the power of curiosity over judgment, and compassion over critique. They also showed me how healing it is to finally find your voice, challenge people-pleasing patterns, and recover from trauma.

My journey to this work wasn’t linear. As an in-home caregiver for kids with disabilities, a paraeducator, and even a professional dog trainer, I saw how connection—whether between humans or animals—can be transformative. (Yes, I’ll absolutely discuss with you the human-animal bond!) Now, as a therapist, I “Believe,” à la Ted Lasso: I believe you’re doing the best you can. I believe change is possible. And I believe that even the deepest wounds can become sources of strength.

I completed my Master’s in Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy here in Portland, where I’ve worked with individuals, couples, and families.

How I do this work:

Therapy with me feels like a conversation with a trusted guide. I’ll ask questions, listen deeply, and help you untangle the stories you’ve inherited that shape your current challenges. We will look at the emotions you might have learned to suppress, or the “parts” of you that feel stuck. With couples, I focus on building safety and trust so you can break cycles of conflict and truly hear each other.

I won’t just nod along—I’ll gently challenge you when needed, but always from a place of collaboration. (Think: “Tell me about your anger. How is it shaping your relationships?”) And because therapy shouldn’t feel like a one-size-fits-all lecture, we’ll tailor our work together through feedback-centered care. Your goals, your pace, your voice leading the way.

If you're into therapy lingo, I draw from Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Emotion Focused Therapy.

And as someone who’s actively unlearning patriarchal norms, I’m committed to creating a space where you don’t have to perform, pretend, or shrink—especially if society has told you to.
