About
My Philosophy & Practice
In our world of constant motion and connection, many of us face a quiet paradox: despite unprecedented progress, we are often left grappling with a profound sense of disconnection from ourselves and our purpose.
​
In my 18 years as a clinical psychologist, I have sat with individuals from all walks of life and have seen this paradox firsthand. I have learned that true psychological well-being is not simply the absence of symptoms, but the presence of meaning. A person can have everything and feel nothing if they lack a reason to get out of bed in the morning.
​
This has become the core of my professional mission: to practice a psychology that empowers individuals to navigate existential challenges and rediscover their intrinsic will to live a meaningful life.
This conviction is now the driving force behind my work. My current focus is on translating these extensive clinical insights into a rigorous program of research, with the goal of scientifically validating and disseminating new, meaning-centered interventions for suicide prevention. Ultimately, my mission is to provide clinicians with better tools and individuals with a renewed sense of hope and purpose.
Services
Over the span of more than 20 years, I've dedicated myself to understanding human relationships and mental health. Through this journey, I've come to realize that our interconnectedness is paramount to our well-being, and there exist methods to enhance our lives by improving our interactions with others.
I firmly believe that success and happiness are not mutually exclusive; it's entirely feasible to cultivate both while fostering kindness and nurturing a thriving career. In my book, "Heroes of Our Existence," I delve into the profound influence of love, illustrating how it can serve as a potent tool to surmount psychological challenges and pave the way to a fulfilling life.
