I provide perinatal mental health counseling for men, whether expecting a child or already postpartum and in the midst of parenthood.

Becoming a parent is a deep-end leap into unfamiliar waters, an experience you cannot know until you are immersed in it. It's helpful to talk with someone about it. As a father, I'm familiar with the desire for guidance and support during this time. I'm here to check in, to identify those essential ways you can anchor in what's most important and meaningful to you, as you figure out your own way of being a dad.

I work with men on paternal well-being because dads/dads-to-be who are grounded in their values and commitments can show up for their families in ways they prefer. I also work with couples, because sometimes we need everybody in the room in order to figure things out in a way that works. Babies are welcome to join us during our conversations!

My perinatal therapeutic work is shaped by my clinical training in systemic family therapy and narrative therapy. It's also informed by nonviolent communication and Magda Gerber's Principles of Educaring. I've completed a RIE Foundations training course on theory and observation for respectful parenting. I've completed additional training with Postpartum Support International in perinatal mental health and advanced psychotherapy.
