Being a man today often feels like a balancing act between the world’s expectations and the silent weight we carry behind closed doors. For over two decades, I have dedicated my life to helping men navigate the complexities of identity, mental health, and legacy. But my deepest credentials didn't come from a textbook—they came from the fire.
I know what it means to lead a family while your own heart is breaking. I have walked the agonizing path of losing my oldest son to gun violence—a pain that reshapes a father’s soul. I also understand the quiet, heavy grief of estrangement, a reality many fathers face but few talk about. I’ve navigated the wreckage of divorce and the intentional, patient work of rebuilding a life, eventually finding the profound joy of a successful second marriage. As a father of four boys, I understand the pressure of being a pillar, a provider, and a protector, even when you feel like you're running on empty.
I founded my practice because I realized that for most men, "just talking" isn't enough. When you are navigating the deep waters of grief, the high-stakes pressure of a mandated program, or the burnout of chronic stress, you need a strategy that addresses the root cause. My signature Root-Cause Method is built specifically for the male experience. We don’t just discuss the problem; we integrate clinical expertise with somatic tools like therapeutic movement and meditation to reset your nervous system and reclaim your drive.
Whether you are a father grieving an unimaginable loss, a man trying to find his footing after a divorce, or a professional facing the pressures of a mandated recovery program, I am here to tell you that your story isn't over. My clinic is a space where dignity is a given and excellence is the standard, regardless of whether you are utilizing private insurance or Wisconsin Medicaid.
I am in my 50s, I am a father, and I am a man who has done the work. I invite you to step into a different kind of healing—one that honors your strength and tackles your pain at the root.
Let’s do the work together.
