You’ve hustled, climbed ladders, and accomplished things…but you’re restless. The destination isn’t what you thought it would be and you don’t know what to do next.
You did what you were supposed to. Worked hard, played it safe, and made responsible choices. People like you because you make life easy for them and don’t rock the boat. Now you’re bored, unfulfilled, and frustrated.
You’ve done okay for yourself, but life feels kinda pointless. You want to make a difference in the world, but you’re not sure how.
Whether it’s a relationship, career, or habit, you know you need to make a change. Each time you try you feel frozen with worry, crippled by uncertainty, disoriented by doubt, or paralyzed by fear.
I’m done chasing shiny objects. I know what really matters: creating the work, play, and relationships I’ve always dreamed of.
I am unapologetically myself. I speak up, stand out, and press forward. I’m guided by core values I absolutely believe in. I’m proud of how I show up.
I make a real difference in the world using my unique strengths. I’m realizing my greatest potential. I’m bursting with energy and purpose.
I use my well-practiced mental and emotional skills to stay cool, manage stress, and forge ahead. I balance pushing myself with recovery practices so I’m always at my best.
My services aren’t for everyone. I only take clients who are sick of the status quo and ready to work hard to change it. We’re going to go deep. I’m going to help you make some changes you’ve always wanted, some you never thought you could, and some you didn’t know you needed. I tailor my process to meet the specific needs of each client, but in my experience transformation occurs in 3 phases:
We dig deep and uncover the unconscious parts and processes responsible for your limiting beliefs, self-defeating habits, and unregulated emotions. We get REALLY honest here, but your courage pays off BIG TIME!
After exposing the unconscious puppet masters responsible for keeping you down, it's time to start climbing up! You'll learn new skills, establish new habits, and leverage new insights as you ascend out of the rut you've been stuck in. Your path forward starts to take shape as deep self-understanding and empowering self-acceptance leads to extreme responsibility-taking.
Armed with new self-awareness, skills, and clarity you're ready to leave the old version of you behind. As you transcend old patterns, you start making values-based, purpose-driven, and wisdom-oriented decisions. You forge a life filled with passion, freedom, love, joy, and abundance.
I’m a clinical psychologist. That means I’m a “doctor”, but not the kind you show your private parts to 🙂 I’m the kind you share your private thoughts with. I’ve helped thousands of people gain insight, change patterns, and transform their lives.
I’m also a father, husband, military veteran, skier, gym-rat, outdoorsman, adventure athlete, music-lover, sci-fi nerd, gamer, and podcast host.
I’ve served in many roles: psychotherapist, coach, researcher, teacher, leader, mentor, advocate, skeptic, and ideological gadfly. I’ve been humbled by each one and have learned that there is no such thing as a human who is a finished product.
Perturbed by existential questions from a young age, I’ve spent my whole life seeking knowledge and skills from both modern and ancient wisdom traditions in an effort to create a life of meaning, peace, love, and freedom. This quest has exposed me to many schools of thought and tools of self-development. I’ve learned a lot of things. I’ve tried a lot of things. Some things help…some don’t. Some help for a while, then stop helping. Some didn’t help at first, then started helping after a while. This has taught me to stay open, humble, determined, and curious.
One of my many curiosities is how “non-ordinary states of consciousness” (NOSC) can catalyze lasting personal change. NOSC can be achieved many ways, but I’m most fascinated by those occasioned by psychedelics.
You can learn more about my work with psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and research on my podcast, Psychedelic Therapy Frontiers.
I know what it takes to reinvent yourself. I’ve done it. Let me show you how you can, too.
