Is work making you feel stressed or stuck? I Can Help You Find Your Right Direction.
You are doing big things in your life. But you are feeling conflicted, stressed, burnt out, anxious, hopeless, exhausted, or stuck.
Maybe you are a professional or tech worker and have been dealing with a fairly stressful situation for a while now.
Maybe you are a business owner and everything and everyone is relying on you.
Maybe you are feeling stifled in a work environment that doesn’t support your creative drive.
Maybe you are thinking about pivoting and want to talk to someone before making any drastic career changes. Or maybe you are trying to just make it a few more years until retirement.
Maybe you just plain don’t like your job and don’t know what to do.
The thing is, problem-solving is better with collaboration. You need a non-judgmental place where you can learn to use real tools to reduce stress, anxiety, burnout, and depression to get to clear-headed decisions, and make positive change in your life.
I can help you find your right direction, move forward, and get on the path to loving your work.
What is therapy with me like?
Examine and reflect
Life can be full of conflicting values, aims, and goals. We slow down to examine and reflect where you are currently.
Laugh sometimes
Humor is a really good way to get to the truth. Often what makes something funny is something that’s incongruent.
Enjoy life
You cant just wake up and choose to be happy. But you can learn to infuse happiness into the process of getting there.
Hi, I’m John
Many people think therapy is about achieving some specific thing and then your done. But I think therapy is about developing a process of thinking that helps you feel happy along the way.
You may have tried therapy before and you didn’t really get much out of it. But working with me is different.
I believe that therapy isn’t about just listening or offering generic advice. It’s about collaboration. It’s about slowing down long enough to examine your life, working out what it is that is making you feel stuck, and being your partner to help you find your right direction.
I became a therapist because it seemed like a way to actually help people live a better life. For the last 10 years I have had the privilege to help over 500 clients feel better with evidence-based therapy informed by practical philosophy.
Therapy with me feels reflective, fun, and meaningful. We will ask questions, we’ll challenge assumptions, and we will probably find a way to laugh about it all.
Most importantly, we’ll take time to focus on you. Together we’ll get you on the path to living a life that you actually enjoy.

Therapy isn’t just about solving your problems.
There is a term in philosophy called eudaimoia — which people often translate as happiness. But really it means something more like flourishing. Its not just joy, but a life condition that encompasses good feelings.
What you do in the present moment indicates what you do in the future. You have to aspire to love your life right now. If you want to enjoy life later, you have to enjoy life right now. There is no separation.
The process of finding your right direction, moving forward, and getting on the path to loving your work is part of life and it is part of feeling happier.
