About

The client who usually finds me is the strong one: the fixer, the provider, the person everyone leans on. Then one comment lands wrong, the room goes quiet, and he hates the version of himself standing there. Much of my week is set aside for men who are steadier at work than they ever manage to be at home. A short fuse usually has a long history, and we'll trace yours without shame and without hurry. We treat thought patterns like habits, and habits can be retrained with the right repetitions. I'm also glad to offer sessions in American Sign Language (ASL). I've noticed that men often lower their guard differently with me, and that opening is where we begin. I'll push back when the old excuses show up, and I'll do it with respect. I practiced in group settings before going solo, and I still believe change moves fastest in honest company. Reaching out is the hardest part; the rest we'll do together.
