About

Have you started wondering whether this is simply who you are now, instead of something you are moving through? That question usually arrives quietly, on an unremarkable afternoon, and it is often the first fully honest thing a person says to me. I treat depression, and I hold it as a real condition rather than a mood you ought to be able to talk yourself out of. For a long stretch I worked inside hospital and step-down programs, sitting with people through their hardest weeks, and that left me steady in rooms that unsettle many clinicians. Because of it, you never have to protect me from how bad things have actually gotten. We look plainly at what you are carrying and begin loosening its grip. People often expect me to be cool or clinical, and I am neither. I ask real questions, I remember what you tell me, and I keep us aimed at what might make an ordinary Tuesday livable again. If that lands as familiar, reach out and we can start there.
