I help thoughtful people work through stress, anxiety, depression, and the relationships that matter most — so they can do meaningful work, love the people in front of them, and feel at home in their own minds again. Therapy here is calm, practical, and grounded in research on how the body and mind actually heal.
Stress, anxiety, depression, and relational struggles are not just thoughts to argue with. They are patterns that live in the body, the breath, the nervous system, and the stories we carry about who we are.
My work blends evidence-based talk therapy with mind-body strategies — practical tools for the breath, the body, and the attention — so the changes you make in session keep working long after we hang up.
I am direct but unhurried. You will not be handed a worksheet and a smile. We will look at what is actually happening in your life and build something that fits it.
Cognitive and acceptance-based tools to loosen the grip of anxious thoughts without trying to suppress them.
Breathwork, somatic awareness, and simple practices that help your body remember how to settle.
Therapy is not only about feeling less bad. It is about being free enough to do what actually matters to you.
Alongside my clinical work, I research how technology can break barriers to mental health care and deliver mind-body strategies that actually reduce stress and build a healthier mind, body, and soul.
The goal is simple: take what works inside a therapy session — breath, attention, embodied practice — and figure out how to make it reach people wherever they are, in the everyday moments when they need it most.
How online sessions can reach people that traditional therapy has never quite touched — those in rural areas, with packed schedules, or who could never picture themselves walking into an office.
Devices like the WHOOP, Apple Watch, and Oura now measure heart rate variability, sleep, recovery, and signs of stress in real time. Used well, they give a person a real-time window into their nervous system — and a feedback loop for lowering cortisol and building a healthier body, mind, and soul.
Using wearables, apps, and biometric data to help people stay on top of stress and recovery in everyday life — turning information into healthier rhythms.
Measuring how short, well-designed practices shift stress in the nervous system.
Studying the deep connection between mental health and the nervous system — how the body's state shapes the mind, and how tending to one can heal the other.
Research that treats body, mind, and soul as one — keeping the spiritual dimension of healing visible in fields that often forget it.
Every person who walks into this work carries something sacred. Whatever your faith — or none at all — you will be met with full respect, and your beliefs will be honored as part of who you are.
As an Orthodox Christian, I am also uniquely positioned to walk alongside fellow Christians who want their faith woven into the work. The Orthodox tradition has a remarkably deep understanding of the inner life — what the Fathers call the healing of the nous, the contemplative heart where a person meets God and meets themselves. In this view, what we now call psychotherapy is, at its root, the care of the soul.
Anxiety and stress are never only mental events. They touch the body, the mind, and the deepest part of us — the part that longs for meaning, peace, and a life that feels truly worth living. That is the whole person I want to help you tend to.
A short, no-pressure call so we can both see if working together makes sense. Pick a time that fits your week.
