Therapy for Dads & Fathers
in Boulder, CO
Fatherhood is asking something of you.
You don't have to answer it alone.
For dads carrying the weight of the transition — the identity shift, the relationship strain, the pressure to hold it all together — and ready to finally set some of it down.
You became a father. And somewhere in that, you lost track of yourself.
It happened slowly. The sleepless months, the shift in your relationship, the way your own needs kept moving to the back of the line. You're still showing up — providing, protecting, performing — but something underneath has gone quiet.
Maybe you're more irritable than you want to be. Maybe the distance between you and your partner has grown in ways you can't quite name. Maybe you thought fatherhood would feel different — more natural, more complete — and you feel guilty that it doesn't.
This isn't a failure. It's a signal. Fatherhood is one of the most significant psychological transitions a man will go through — and almost no one prepares you for that.
This work is about meeting that transition honestly — not with quick fixes or performance goals, but with the depth it actually deserves. I work with dads and fathers across the Front Range, both in person in Boulder and via telehealth throughout Colorado, including Denver and beyond.
If any of this sounds familiar, you're in good company.
These aren't weaknesses. They're signals worth paying attention to.

I'm not observing fatherhood from a distance. I'm in it.
Two kids under five. A marriage I'm actively working on. The 2am diaper changes, the identity questions, the moments of profound love and profound exhaustion happening sometimes within the same hour.
I bring my personal experience into this work — not as disclosure for its own sake, but because it matters when the person sitting across from you actually knows what this is like.
I've spent over 15 years in deep inner work — in therapy rooms, meditation halls, plant medicine ceremonies, and the daily practice of trying to be a present father and partner. My approach to men's counseling draws from contemplative psychotherapy, somatic experiencing, IFS, and attachment-based relational work.
I'm not a fixer. I'm a companion on the road. I hold space for men to actually feel — to be strong and soft, protective and present, rooted and willing to fall apart when falling apart is what's needed.
I've held men as they've sobbed over things they never thought they were allowed to say out loud.
And I've walked through it myself. This work isn't theoretical. It's lived.

When you've been in survival mode so long you've lost access to what you actually feel.

Understanding what's driving the short fuse — and learning to respond instead of react.

Being here — not just physically, but actually arriving in your own life and relationships.
