Men’s Work

Building Healthier Men and Upgrading Masculinity

Our culture is changing and many men are struggling to find healthy ways of expressing themselves, finding their purpose, and contributing as men in the modern world.

We’ve ingested a lot of toxic messages about what it means to be a “real man”. Many of them only serve to keep us stuck and isolated.

Luckily you don’t have to suffer alone. You may have been taught that needing help is a form of weakness, but I believe it is actually courageous to step towards breaking free. 

Admitting you're stuck and in need of support is a sign of awareness and a way to take responsibility. With help you can break free of your isolation, shame, and find your own version os masculinity. 

I can help you live authentically and in connection.

Are you ready to break free, find your truth, power, and voice? Are you ready to begin your amazing journey towards health, freedom, and connection?

Philosophy and Approach

As a man, I understand the challenges of trying to be a conscious guy in the modern world. 

We hear far more about toxic masculinity than how men can improve and grow. While it’s important to see the ways dominant notions of masculinity cause harm, I believe it's even more important to help men help men build on their strengths and find a path of growth. 

I approach my work with a deep respect and care for men. We all absorb loads of toxic masculine notions, but I believe most men really want to be good people, who contribute to the well-being of their family and community. 

With a clear sense of purpose, support, and healthy relationship skills, I believe it’s possible! 

I have done years of my own work, both individually and in men’s groups. I have facilitated men’s groups going on 3 years and worked with hundreds of men in groups and individually. 

I believe it’s possible to be strong, open-hearted, connected, vulnerable, and assertive men. The world is in deep need of men who show up fully and whole-heartedly. It needs you.
