During my training and early career experiences at the University of Texas at Austin and The Central Texas VA system, I became an expert in implementing multiple evidence-based approaches to address anxiety, stress, trauma, relationship issues, sleep issues and anger. As an Adventure Therapy Therapist and Outward Bound Instructor, I developed experientially-based approaches to help clients that struggled to find therapeutic gains in traditional, office-based settings. These early career experiences ignited my commitment to help clients develop practical and lifelong skills to address their mental and relational health through both traditional and experiential therapy.  

 

My practice is informed by my experience working with a variety of populations and honing a unique combination of approaches that integrate traditional Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, evidence-based therapies, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction frameworks, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. The result is a practical, flexible and useful approach that gives clients insight and skills they can apply throughout their lives. 

 

I have extensive training and experience working with individuals working in technology industries, with veteran and military populations, and with topics specific to men, masculinity, and fathering.
