Individual Counseling
read moreIf youve come to this website, I imagine that something is bothering you. There is either something you dont want (like anxiety, depression, an unhappy relationships) that you havent figured out how to fix, or there is something you do want (such as a new career, peace, good relationships) that that you havent achieved on your own. If this is true, and you have the desire to change you are ready for therapy.Couples Therapy & Marriage Counseling
read moreI understand. Im married myself, and know that keeping a long-term committed romantic relationship alive and happy is hard work, and is a challenge most of us were not well-trained for. We go from the templates we saw of our parents (if we saw any), from TV shows and self-help books, from what we see around us (the public face of others relationships) and they dont provide us with the answers we need to stay connected and positive. Add in a kid or two and perhaps two careers and a mortgage and youve got a recipe for a tired, stressed-out couple.Anxiety, Stress & Panic Attacks
read moreAnxiety, worry and stress are part of the human condition. But for many people, the voice of anxiety can be a constant presence, the depth of worry can ruin days or nights, and panic attacks can interfere with living your normal life. I understand. Anxiety and panic attacks are something I have experienced personally, and I have both a great understanding of them, and deep empathy for how much they can impact our experience of life. I offer counseling and psychotherapy that can help you manage and lessen anxiety, stress and panic attacks.Job & Career
read moreMy father would often counsel me (as fathers often do) to be thoughtful about what I chose for work and a career. We spend too much of our lives there, he would say. And I agree. Our jobs and careers bring passion, purpose, meaning, identity, satisfaction, self-esteem, and income or they dont.I bring real-life experience to this part of my work. Before I became a counselor, I worked in IT jobs for over a decade, from large companies like IBM, to small companies, and even as an independent contractor. I changed careers in my mid-30s, enduring a couple wrong paths before finding my second career as a psychotherapist.Reviews Write a Review

I was always a nice guy in my mind. Always trying to be helpful and do good. With Peter's help, I recognized that being good also meant being good to myself.
In the past, I was resentful for some of the ways I behaved or how I was treated. What I learned is that putting on my own oxygen mask first was the best way for me to be able to give to others and be the nice guy I always knew I was. But, now more authentically so. I learned saying No was okay, if it meant taking care not to overcommit myself. Asking for help from others to get my needs met was okay too. Setting boundaries.
I have Peter to thank for that. Peter helped me see what I was doing that was not working for me. How I was kind of doing this to myself, and why I was frustrated and not happy. My wife and kids are happier too after I started seeing Peter.
Peter has a good sense of humor and is genuinely caring. I appreciate that I was able to find him. I highly recommend him.
