You’ve built something real. A career, a reputation, a life that looks — from the outside — like everything is working. But privately, you’re exhausted in a way that sleep doesn’t fix. You’re snapping at the people you love most. You feel emotionally flat, disconnected, or like you’re running on fumes behind a very polished exterior.

You’re not broken. But something needs to change.

I work with executives, founders, and high-performing professionals who are ready to go beyond managing symptoms and actually understand what’s driving them. My approach is depth-oriented and relational — meaning we don’t just talk about what’s happening at the surface. We look at the patterns, the history, and the beliefs that have quietly shaped how you lead, love, and respond under pressure.

Many of my clients come in thinking they have a stress problem. What we often discover together is that the stress is pointing toward something deeper — unresolved experiences, relationship dynamics, or a version of themselves they’ve been outrunning for years.

This work is serious, meaningful, and it creates lasting change — not just better coping strategies. This work leads to transformation that will bring you closer to the heart of a safe but wild God who loves us just as we are not as we should be. This work will change how we can see ourselves and our limitations, understand our history so we can understand what drives our maladaptive behaviors and transform through loving patient attention from secure relationship with a therapist that will ultimately deepen your relationship with our loving God.

If your relationship is also feeling the strain — the distance, the short fuse, the sense that you and your partner are roommates more than partners — I can help with that too. I specialize in couples work and bring the same depth of approach to helping partners reconnect, repair, and actually understand each other again.

I am licensed in California, Arizona, and Florida and work exclusively via telehealth — which means sessions fit around your schedule, not the other way around.

If you’re ready to do real work, I’d love to connect. Call or text for a free 15-minute consultation.
