Where Transformational Change Happens in Days, Not Years

Meet david

I believe that meaningful connection is essential to human flourishing, yet our culture offers few spaces to honestly explore relationship and familial complexity. My passion lies in facilitating unique experiences where couples can shed inherited scripts, discover authentic desire, and build relationships rooted in genuine understanding rather than performance.  

my COMMITMENT

This work is highly curated to what you most authentically desire. I avoid creating dependency by focusing on experiential transformation that becomes part of who you are as a relationship or family, not just what you do.

MY APPROACH

My Approach to Transformation

My work is deeply influenced by Virginia Satir's understanding of congruence—when what we think, feel, and experience with our senses all line up—and Michael White's narrative therapy, which empowers couples to re-author their relationship stories. I also have extensive training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and am curious and attuned to how your attachment styles show up in your romantic and familial relationships.

I don't see people as problems and I don't pathologize or label people. Wherever you are, you got here together. Anger often masks deeper emotions like fear or sadness. Conflict signals unmet needs or unspoken fears. Distance reflects protective patterns that once served but may no longer fit your authentic desires. Virginia Satir believed that when we align with our authentic selves, we can no longer hurt or be hurt. Finding this congruence creates space for choosing whether and how to continue relationships with others.

Through what I call "thicker language" and experiential activities, we explore the emotional landscapes that shape your connection. This isn't about learning communication techniques or managing behaviors—it's about transforming how you see and experience yourself and each other.

Why Intensives

After years of traditional weekly therapy, I discovered that real transformation—what family therapists call second-order change—requires sustained focus. Just as you don't learn to ride a bike through scattered 10-minute practices, relationship transformation happens through immersion, not fragmented sessions.

My intensive approach creates a curated vessel where couples and families can step outside familiar patterns and discover entirely new ways of being themselves. and together.
