Licensed Social Worker

My Journey:
My work is grounded in a deep commitment to relationship—both with others and with the inner and outer landscapes that shape us.
I’ve spent much of my life drawn to places where growth asks something of us—within relationships, in groups, and in the natural world.
I began in Wilderness Therapy with Open Sky in the Four Corners region. There, I saw how quickly patterns come into focus under stress—and how extraordinary change is possible when we meet life’s many stressors directly, with communication, support of others, and a sense of connectedness to our soul’s place on this earth.
Since then, I’ve worked with young men in rites of passage settings, supported families and couples navigating betrayal and trauma at The Meadows, and now facilitate intensive group work focused on intimacy and relational patterns at The Begin Again Institute.
Across these settings, one thing has stayed consistent:
Meaningful change happens in relationship—through honesty, accountability, and the willingness to stay present when it’s hard.
My work is especially focused on men and couples.
I’ve seen how many men carry pressure and isolation—and a quiet sense that they’re supposed to figure things out on their own.
Often without the tools—or the language—to do it differently.
Underneath that, self-worth can become tied to performance, achievement, or control—at the cost of connection and a fuller sense of self.
In the room, I work directly with these patterns—especially when the way someone is trying to create connection is actually getting in the way of it.
Whether in a therapy room or sitting in circle, I aim to create an environment where people are met with respect, challenged directly, and supported in doing work that leads to real change.
This is work grounded in relationship—and in that willingness to be real - we face the risk and the invaluable reward of a truer connection.
If this is the kind of relationship you seek to support you in your journey and relationships, reach out!
My Approach:
Insight alone doesn’t create change.
Most people already have some sense of what isn’t working—but that doesn’t necessarily change how they show up when things get difficult.
I focus on what happens in those moments.
Not just what you think or understand—but how you respond when there’s tension, disconnection, or pressure in your life and relationships.
I’m not interested in staying at the level of insight.
I’m interested in helping you change what you actually do—especially in the moments that matter most.
That means being direct when something isn’t working.
Slowing things down when needed.
And staying with the places that are easy to avoid.
My work is grounded in Relational Life Therapy, with an emphasis on both accountability and respect.
You won’t be shamed—but you also won’t be able to stay hidden in patterns that are costing you.
Over time, this work builds something more solid:
The ability to stay present, respond with intention, and create relationships that feel more honest, connected, and real.
