About Me

I'm a former actor, writer, director of 32 years and working as a therapist for almost 7 years now. I have 2 amazing sons and a lovely wife. I'm patient, loving, caring and curious about people. I have a lot of experience working with others and studying human nature through my work in the arts. I love to read, learn more about human beings and practice meditation and other healing modalities. I really like what I do.
