 Welcome 

Contemplative Psychotherapy and Counseling

"The core wound we all suffer from is the disconnection from our own being"
John Welwood

Are you...

...struggling in  your relationships?

...feeling isolated, alone, and misunderstood?

...hesitant about therapy because you've tried it before and not had a helpful experience?​

...finding it difficult to manage your emotions?

...having difficulty understanding and expressing your emotions?

...feeling angry, sad, or heartbroken?

... don't think therapy can help you?

We may be a good fit.

Autumn Leaves

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in private practice in Asheville, North Carolina. A history teacher turned therapist, my theoretical influences stem from Contemplative and Buddhist Psychology, a deep interest and regard for Native American and indigenous cultures, village-mindedness, Gestalt Therapy, as well as my roles as a husband, father, and friend.

I specialize in cultivating connection, helping people recover from relational trauma, creating fulfilling relationships with self and others, and assisting individuals in the radical act of self-acceptance.

I am a graduate of Naropa University's Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology program and a student of the Appalachian Gestalt Institute.
