Ryan LAC, CCTP

My 12 year career in the military taught me the value of compassion, service, and integrity. I'm passionate to continue serving by using my experience to help others reduce the impact of mental health problems in their lives.

Starting therapy can scary. That can keep us from trying. But, if you don't try something different, nothing's going to change. Allow me to motivate you to unstick yourself from usual habits, with empathic support and collaboration. You're not doing this on your own!

Imagine carrying a large bowl, and each day our stress and trauma are like water filling that bowl. Unless we're working to process trauma, that bowl becomes heavier and we struggle with its weight. Those living with trauma, full bowls, know how destructive it can be when the bowl overflows, gets dropped, and wreaks havoc and distress. I use several effective methods to help make your bowl lighter and manageable.

Together, we will develop achievable goals based on your needs and strengths. I use a collaborative approach, combining strategies from several modalities, to target your most impacting problems. We will meet virtually, so therapy will always be in a location and time convenient for you

Couples therapy helps you and your partner develop skills and strategies to improve satisfaction, happiness, and connection. I use strategies like Gottman method, systemic family therapy, and more to help overcome problems. Couples who've worked with me learn to forgive, let go of the past, parent effectively, and move forward together into stronger, loving dynamics.
