The pressures of being a man in the Bay Area are many. Perhaps you have angry outbursts that seem to come from nowhere and are overly dramatic reactions to something small. 

Possibly circumstances outside of your primary relationship like job related stress, unexpected house or car repairs, injuries, or illnesses increase your stress and anxiety and you react out of anger. Your life doesn’t have to be like this. There is hope.

As a man, coming to the decision to seek help can be a long road. I understand. I struggled with trying to manage my own depression, anxiety, and anger on my own. Seeking help opened the door to healing through mindfulness, self-discovery, and connection with others. My journey brought me to the field of psychology and led to becoming a therapist.

Men come to me to learn to manage their anger and to reduce depression and anxiety, whatever their source. 

As a couples or relationship therapist, I help partners learn to stop the cycle of constant arguing, fights, and hurt feelings. 

I teach partners to learn how to communicate in a way that helps them to stay level-headed during disagreements, restore balance, and improve intimacy.

My life’s work is about helping individuals, couples, and polyamorous partners to improve their lives. Contact me to discover how we can work together to simmer things down, reduce stress, lift your mood, and restore balance.
