He helps people cope with grief, relationship difficulties, sleep problems, parenting strain, career frustrations, and compassion fatigue. He also works with ADHD-related challenges and impulsivity. People describe his approach as compassionate and direct.
He invites clients to try manageable strategies in everyday life and to adjust plans as they learn what works. Sessions are offered in English and he provides online formats for flexibility.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and connections. Online sessions use this work to spot recurring interaction styles and try new ways of relating in real time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises. In online sessions clients learn tools, try them between meetings, and then review what helped or didn’t. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client’s lead; the therapist offers support and reflection while the person sets goals and pace.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person’s needs. Plans are adjusted as progress is tracked, so the work stays focused and relevant to the client’s everyday life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, quick problem-solving, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make scheduling easier and let people use therapy in the ways that work best for them.
