My practice springs

from my commitment to respect for objective reality, intellectual clarity, human agency, and a love for the beauty and goodness of existence. I work with high-functioning individuals, professionals, and families who value a grounded, robust approach to mental and relational wellness found in personal mastery.

Our work together will be guided by my three core pillars:

A Love for Our Human Species: Integrity requires looking at the world as it actually is and telling the truth about it, starting with telling the truth to ourselves. My practice respects the material realities of natural human biology and an appreciation for the enduring laws of nature. We navigate life's challenges by anchoring ourselves in the empowerment of empirical facts, the pleasures of observable science, and the stable physical realities of human development, rather than transient social trends. No matter the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, we do this by developing a sense of creative responsiveness to the game of life by learning to have a bit of fun with it all.

Freedom of Thought & Reason: Therapy should cultivate an autonomous, resilient mind. I honor open inquiry and the capacity of the individual to think clearly and navigate life with wisdom, integrity, and personal accountability. We’ll take a leaf outta the insights of the great philosophers, thinkers, sages and saints the world over, knowing that we are not alone in the great story of being alive.

The Dignity of the Individual: I view every client through the lens of their irreplicable character, strengths, and agency, not as a representative of a demographic category. Personal integration, resilience, and building upon the best elements of our shared cultural foundations are the wellspring for how to build a good human life.
