Often times, individuals and families struggle with issues beyond understanding or don't have an individual to provide an unbiased approach to life's problems. Sometimes those seeking therapy have a support system that doesn't know how to best assist in their struggle. Some individuals don't have a support system and need help navigating isolation. Some couples struggle to feel heard, validated, and respected by their partner and struggle with communication.
Therapy can provide a safe place for positive regard to occur as individuals, families, and couples work to achieve healthier approaches to a majority of life's problems. During therapy, we will attempt to understand patterns and connections to the current issues you or your family may be facing. Then, we will come up with a plan on how to address these issues. Sometimes, all it takes is a third party to have a good look at the current state of things to determine minor or major changes that you or your family can take.
In all, my hope is that I can share in your journey to discover the meaning in your life and create a space for positive change to occur. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have about the therapy process, and if I cannot help, I will do my best to point you in the direction of someone who can.

Before I became a counselor, I graduated from Saint Vincent College in 2010 with a B.S. in Mathematics and Education. I worked for a total of 7 teaching years. During my first two years of teaching, I studied to become an administrator and received my M.A. in Leadership at Notre Dame of Maryland University in 2013. In 2017, I graduated from Liberty University with an M.A. in Professional Counseling. I slowly transitioned out of teaching and began working in psychotherapy full time.
I ran my first marathon in 2019 and began training in Brazilian Ju Jitzu off and on and competed in my first tournament in January 2022. I received my Blue Belt in 2022.
I continue to train for 5ks and marathons, play guitar for my friends and family, and participate in book clubs on philosophy, psychology, and theology. I actively participate in the Catholic Psychotherapy Networker. I also participate in Catholic men's fellowship and formation.
