Who I Work With

I serve men, young adults, teens, and individuals feeling overwhelmed and burnt out from navigating big changes. Whether you're new to therapy or seeking a more relaxed, approachable experience, my goal is to provide a safe, down-to-earth space where you can explore your feelings and discover practical paths forward.

Together, we’ll focus on your goals and needs, helping you integrate new insights and behaviors, develop resilience, and reconnect with what truly matters. If you're feeling anxious, stuck in old patterns, or just need someone to be in this with you, I’m here to support you.

  • Being a man can feel isolating, with pressure to handle everything on your own. I help men who seem fine on the outside but feel overwhelmed inside, whether due to work, parenting, or life changes. If pushing through isn’t working, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to help you figure out what's weighing you down and find a way forward that feels right for you.

  • Young adulthood can be an exciting time of trying new things and figuring out your path. But it can also leave you feeling stuck or like something’s just not right. The pressure to have your career, relationships, and life mapped out can feel overwhelming. If you’re feeling stuck, unsure of what’s next, or just not feeling like yourself, you don’t have to face it alone. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in your way and find an authentic, fulfilling path.

  • Being a teenager these days is tough. I work with teens who feel overwhelmed by the pressures of school, friendships, and everything else that comes with growing up. My approach is laid-back and relatable, creating a space where your teen feels heard and understood. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on and find practical solutions to help them manage their challenges.

  • Sometimes, family communication can feel like it’s just not clicking. Parents may feel unable to reach their teens, while teens often feel misunderstood or pressured by their parents. That’s where I come in, creating a relaxed, open space in our sessions where everyone feels comfortable sharing. Together, we’ll work on improving understanding, easing the pressure, and finding positive ways for your family to connect

  • Being a parent is hard—I get it because I’m one too. I offer therapy for parents to help navigate challenging moments, understand their child's needs, and build a stronger connection. I also support you in finding peace in parenting, because you’re more than just a parent—you’re a person. How you care for yourself directly impacts your family, and everyone benefits when you prioritize your well-being.

A variety of evidence-based therapy approaches that are tailored to you.

At Next Wave, I incorporate a variety of evidence-based therapy approaches that are tailored to you. My primary focus is creating a genuine connection and ensuring your comfort so that real change can happen at your own pace.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

A gentle, effective approach for processing trauma and relieving distress, EMDR helps you reframe and release painful memories or feelings that may be holding you back. It’s a practical way to reduce emotional suffering and regain a sense of peace, often in a relatively short amount of time.

Psychodynamic
Therapy

By exploring the roots of your present challenges, psychodynamic therapy helps you understand how past experiences shape your current thoughts, feelings, and relationships. This helps create a compassionate perspective of yourself, paving the way for meaningful change and lasting emotional health.

Cognitive Behavioral
Therapy

A gentle, effective approach for processing trauma and relieving distress, EMDR helps you reframe and release painful memories or feelings that may be holding you back. It’s a practical way to reduce emotional suffering and regain a sense of peace, often in a relatively short amount of time.

Acceptance and Commitment
Therapy (ACT)

ACT invites you to embrace your thoughts and feelings with openness and compassion, rather than resistance or avoidance. This approach helps you to take meaningful steps aligned with your core values, fostering acceptance, mindfulness, and authenticity. In doing so, you cultivate resilience and find freedom in choosing actions that reflect your true self.

Internal Family
Systems (IFS)

IFS helps you connect deeply with different parts of yourself, fostering internal harmony and self-love. By understanding and integrating these parts, you can reduce inner conflict, build resilience from within, and nurture a compassionate, whole-hearted relationship with yourself.

You don’t have to face this alone; let’s navigate the waves of life together.
