Full Bio Below:

I'm a licensed and board certified counseling psychologist that also has specialized expertise in sport and performance psychology. A former football player at The Ohio State University, I found out first hand the mental, physical, and emotional requirements necessary to perform at a high level. After graduation, I attended the University of Akron where I received my PhD in Counseling Psychology and crafted my educational and applied capacity to help individuals and teams harness mental fitness.

Fast forward 10+ years, I have honed this skillset through various endeavors - as a professor and researcher of psychology, college Dean, national presenter, University sport psychologist, leadership consultant, entrepreneur, golf caddy, and rock band singer.

So whether you are an athlete, artist, entrepreneur, or executive, the ability to manage stress and leverage the mental aspect of performance is paramount in pursuing the quest of reaching one’s fullest capacity.

How does this happen?

First and foremost, whether a live class, an online program, or an individual session, there is an emphasis on establishing a relationship that is conducive to change. One that is built on a foundation of trust, shared understanding, creativity, and rapport. On top of this relational foundation are the pillars of empathy and awareness to understand and connect to the needs and goals of others. Finally, once an understanding of the destination has been achieved, I use mindfulness, cognitive/behavioral, humanistic, and gestalt principles and practices as vehicles to get there.

What this means for you? Well, though I may be a shrink, I am all about expansion. You will expand your awareness about your self, your situation, your struggles, and your striving. You will expand your assessment of the key areas requiring intervention. Finally, you will expand the toolset available to you to overcome mental barriers in order to live the life you want to live. Whether that means more confidence, harnessed focus, greater motivation, higher productivity, or deeper connections to name a few, my goal is to serve as a guide, cheerleader, mentor, and coach to get you there.

Let's get started.
