A Different Kind of Therapy for Men.

Think of it as therapy for the bigger questions. Existential psychotherapy grew out of a rich philosophical tradition that stretches from Socrates through thinkers like Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Viktor Frankl. Rather than viewing emotional suffering as something to simply eliminate, these thinkers recognized that many of life's struggles arise from being human: facing uncertainty, making difficult choices, navigating relationships, and searching for meaning.

Yes, we'll work with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships, but we'll also explore purpose, identity, freedom, responsibility, and what it means to live a life that genuinely feels like your own. My goal isn't simply to help you feel better. It's to help you understand yourself more deeply so you can live more deliberately.

I work with adults facing a range of life challenges. My approach is depth-oriented, existential, and tailored to each person’s unique situation. Common areas I support include:

• Existential concerns – Feeling stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about life’s meaning and purpose.

• Men’s issues – Navigating identity, masculinity, and purpose in a changing world.

• Trauma & PTSD – Healing from past experiences that continue to affect your present.

• Anxiety – Overwhelm, worry, and tension that interfere with daily life.

• Depression – Low mood, loss of motivation, and emotional numbness.

• First responders – Coping with high-stress work and the impact of repeated exposure to trauma.

• High-functioning professionals – Managing stress, burnout, and pressure while maintaining performance.

• Relationship issues – Challenges in communication, connection, and boundaries (individual therapy only).

• Spirituality – Exploring meaning, values, and personal belief systems.

• Stress – Everyday pressures and life demands that feel unmanageable.

• Veterans – Navigating military experiences, transitions, and their emotional impact.

In-person sessions take place in my private home office in the heart of the Montrose neighborhood of Houston (77006). For privacy and security, the exact address is shared with active clients after scheduling.

I intentionally chose a home office because I wanted to create a space that feels warm, comfortable, and conducive to honest conversation rather than clinical or commercial. Therapy asks us to slow down and reflect, and I believe the environment should support that kind of work.

I offer video sessions via a secure telehealth platform to residents of Texas.

Most clients start with weekly sessions for the first 6–8 weeks. This helps build consistency, momentum, and a foundation for meaningful progress. After that, we can adjust to biweekly sessions based on your goals, needs, and what feels sustainable. You always have a say in the pace, and together we’ll find a rhythm that works for your life and your process.

I offer early morning and early evening appointments to accommodate busy schedules. I intentionally keep a smaller practice because my clients are never just another appointment on the calendar. Your time is protected, held consistently, and treated with the care that meaningful therapeutic work deserves.

Each 50-minute session for individuals is:

standard rate: $150/session

sustaining rate*: $175/session

*choosing the "sustaining rate" helps create space for those needing a reduced rate. Reduced rate availability limited.

I do not participate in insurance panels for both philosophical and ethical reasons. This allows me to protect your privacy, maintain the freedom to tailor therapy to your unique needs rather than an insurance company's requirements, and preserve the independence to practice in a way that aligns with my clinical values.

I intentionally maintain a small caseload so I can devote significant time outside of sessions to studying the philosophical and clinical concerns most relevant to my clients. I also invest in ongoing consultation, advanced training, and voluntary existential supervision despite already being independently licensed. This behind-the-scenes work is an important part of the care I provide, but it is largely unsupported by the insurance model.

If your plan offers out-of-network benefits, I'm happy to provide a superbill for possible reimbursement.

Yes—but they are limited.

I partner with Open Path Psychotherapy Collective and reserve a small number of slots each week. These reduced fee sessions are limited to my least requested time slots, 10AM-3PM.

Open Path is a nonprofit organization that connects uninsured or underinsured individuals with affordable therapy.

To access Open Path rates, clients pay a one-time $65 lifetime membership fee directly to Open Path (not to me). After that, sessions remain in the reduced-fee range as long as you’re working with an Open Path therapist.

You can check my current Open Path availability here.

I require at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or reschedules. I understand that emergencies happen, and we can discuss together whether a situation qualifies as a true emergency. I keep a credit card on file to hold appointments and ensure that time reserved for you is respected.
