You don’t have to hold everything together here.

Therapy focused on every stage of fatherhood online in Michigan.

Let's Begin

The weight on your shoulders is starting to feel too heavy.

Some days feel manageable, other days the pressure and worry feel suffocating even when things look “fine” from the outside.

You might feel like you’re going through the motions, carrying responsibility after responsibility, unsure of when you started feeling so far from yourself. You care deeply about your family. You’re doing your best.

And still, stress, burnout, or self-doubt can quietly build, leaving you feeling stuck or off-balance.

Hey, Eli here.

As a dad and a therapist, my goal is to support you — the father. I understand the pressure to provide, stay strong, and carry more than you let on. With a genuine, nonjudgmental approach I offer a space where you can begin to make sense of what you’ve been carrying. Together we’ll work to lighten the load, help you reconnect with yourself, and support you in becoming the kind of father, and person, you want to be.

I help men with:

  • Trauma

  • Depression/Anxiety

  • Burnout

  • Grief

  • Acculturation

  • Healing childhood wounds

I’m on your team.

I specialize in helping dads in every stage of fatherhood examine what’s underneath the weight of what they are carrying. We find the patterns and cycles you’re living in and work together to create lasting change.

My Specialties

    EMDR

    Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) helps dads process stress, past experiences, and moments that continue to affect how they feel and react today. Instead of reliving the past, EMDR supports the brain’s natural ability to heal, reducing the emotional weight that can show up as burnout, anxiety, irritability, or shutdown.

    Emotionally Focused Therapy

    Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) provides a space to slow down and reconnect with emotions that often get sidelined in the pressure to provide and hold things together. EFT supports deeper self-understanding, stronger relationships, and a steadier sense of confidence and presence in fatherhood.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

    CBT is a common and popular therapy modality for a reason. Let’s take a deep dive into the thoughts and feelings you are experiencing and find what works for you and what needs revising.
