What's the hype with “fixing” yourself before you can ask for help?
You don't need to have it together to walk in here. You need to be done pretending you do.

Who I Work With
I work with people who've spent years being the steady one: military, first responders, the ones everyone else calls when things go sideways.
Why Me
I'm retired Air Force, 20 years in aircraft maintenance, multiple deployments. I'm not guessing what your world was like, I was in it.
​
That means I'm not going to ask “how does that make you feel?” and wait for you to perform an answer. I'm going to ask what part you played, what's actually going on, and what you're going to do about it.
How I Work
Direct. Sometimes with humor, sarcastic, occasionally a little ODD-teenager about it, because if you can't take a joke we're going to have a longer road than we need to.
​
I'll challenge you. Not because I don't get it, because I do, and growth is uncomfortable sometimes. No amount of worry is going to change the situation. We're here to actually change it.
What Does Therapy Look Like?
We start with a consultation, not a sales pitch. From there: real conversation, real accountability, and a plan, not an open-ended commitment to show up indefinitely.
​
Hopefully that clears it up or gives you a better idea of what working together looks like.
