I help Men with ...

For Men Who Don’t Know How to STOP Hurting Loved Ones..

So many of the men that I work with will come into the session and say, “my wife thinks I’m a narcissist” and I have to explain that this might not be as cut and dry as it may appear.

You might find yourself caught in a cycle—turning to substances, pornography, or affairs—not because you lack willpower, but because you’re seeking relief from pain, emptiness, or disconnection. These behaviors may offer temporary escape, but they often leave you feeling more isolated and ashamed.

I specialize in individual therapy for men struggling with patterns of lying, cheating, angry outbursts, impulsivity, addiction, infidelity, and compulsive pornography or sexual behaviors. Many of the men I work with identify as emotionally avoidant and have difficulty understanding how their behaviors impact those closest to them. In therapy, we work to uncover the underlying causes—often rooted in shame, trauma, or emotional disconnection—that drive these self-sabotaging patterns.

My approach is compassionate, direct, and structured. I help men develop tools for emotional regulation, empathy, accountability, and relational awareness. Together, we work toward genuine change, helping you move beyond avoidance and reactivity into integrity and connection. I bring lived experience to my work and understand firsthand the challenges of growth, repair, and recovery.

If you’re ready to take accountability, examine the roots of your behaviors, and create meaningful change, this work is for you.

If you identify with any of these patterns, you’re my people:

  • Avoidance and Defensiveness

  • Impulsivity

  • Anger

  • Compulsive decisions

  • Disorganization

  • Losing things, difficulty with focus, follow-through

  • Porn use

  • Cheating

  • Drug/Substance use

  • Numbing with Alcohol use 

  • Lashing out

  • Lying/Omitting/Minimizing

 

In our work together, we will:

  • Identify Triggers: Understand the situations or feelings that lead to destructive behaviors.

  • Explore Underlying Issues: Delve into past experiences that contribute to current patterns.

  • Develop Coping Strategies: Learn healthier ways to manage stress, loneliness, or emotional pain.

  • Rebuild Relationships: If infidelity has impacted your relationships, we’ll work on restoring trust and communication.

  • Cultivate Self-Compassion: Move from self-judgment to understanding and acceptance.

 

If you’re ready to be honest with yourself and create new behaviors and make better choices, contact me and stop avoiding. (Yes, I get you!)
