Therapy for feeling more grounded, connected, and like yourself again.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, ADHD, relationship stress, or a life transition that caught you off guard, therapy is a place to slow things down and make sense of what’s happening.
As a Pasadena therapist, I work with adults and couples in person and virtually throughout California.
Do you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite like yourself?
Maybe it’s anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, or something you can’t quite put your finger on. But underneath that is usually something deeper: patterns that once made sense, but don’t feel helpful anymore.
We’ll get curious about those together.
Most of what looks like dysfunction
is actually adaptation under stress.
How we work together.
Therapy with me is a real conversation. We’ll get curious about what’s going on, look at patterns as they show up, and talk through things in a way that feels grounded and human.
I’ll also check in, reflect back what I’m noticing, and gently challenge you when it feels useful.

Hi, I’m Andrew!
👋🏼
I’m a therapist based in Pasadena, working with clients across California.
I worked in entertainment for over ten years before becoming a therapist. That time still shapes how I see identity, stress, and how people adapt to their surroundings.
In therapy, I’m warm, direct, and down-to-earth. I try to make therapy less intimidating and more approachable than people expect.
My Therapy Specialties
-
Growing up LGBTQIA+ often means learning ways to adapt in order to belong or stay safe. We'll work to understand which of those strategies still protect you, which ones may be keeping you from feeling more like yourself, and how to move through the world in a way that feels more genuine.
-
Relationships can be one of the greatest sources of connection and one of the greatest sources of stress. Together, we will investigate those patterns that keep showing up, strengthen communication, and build the kind of relationship where both people feel more understood, connected, and like they're on the same team.
-
Many men have spent so much time trying to be who they're supposed to be that they've lost touch with who they are. Our work will be about understanding what's shaped you, what matters to you now, and building a life that feels more like your own.

Therapy With Me Is…
Compassionate, conversational, and really grounded.
Collaborative, honest, and gently challenging, with care and clear boundaries.
Focused on what’s getting in the way right now, so we can address present obstacles.
Curious about where your patterns come from, not just where they show up in your life.
Often humorous, even in heavy or difficult moments.
