Founder, Punk Rock Therapy LA

I’m not your typical therapist. I don’t do soft-focus therapy or sugarcoat what’s holding you back. I help men and couples face the truth, break destructive patterns, and build something real.

I specialize in sex and love addiction, substance use, trauma, and relationship repair. My clients are often high-functioning but disconnected, sober or trying to get there, successful on paper yet stuck in shame, anger, or isolation.

My approach is direct, relational, and grounded in real-world recovery. I use two-person psychology, mindfulness, CBT, and trauma-informed therapy to help you understand yourself, rebuild trust, and reconnect with your purpose.

I bring over 15 years of experience in addiction treatment and recovery work, both personally and professionally. Therapy with me is about honesty, growth, and learning how to live in alignment with who you really are, no bullshit, no judgment, just real change.
