Emotions Drive Every Decision You Make.
Steer Your Course
Master the Engine Behind Your Mind.
Emotions may seem vague and elusive, intangible forces that come and go without logic or structure. They may feel like fog, blurring the edges of thought, impossible to grasp or pin down. But they can be understood and figured out. I'm here to explain a scientifically grounded viewpoint: emotions are biological programs molded by evolution, designed not to make you happy, but to propagate life.
Emotions are deep-running patterns programmed to shape how you perceive, think, and act. They are the essence of your experience and the agent behind your behavior. They are here to guide you, though not necessarily to where you'd want to go. Learning their language lets you engage in the most vital conversation of your life.
The Stories You Tell Yourself About Emotions And the Ones That Tell on You
These five familiar beliefs about emotions feel true. They aren't. Learn what affective science reveals about why emotions exist and how to work with them.
Emotional Health: The Foundation of Your Well-Being
Emotions set the terms you play on
From your health and career to your relationships and mood, emotions shape every bit of your life. Managing your emotional foundations turns setbacks into fuel for growth. Solid emotional competence is the groundwork for lasting stability and ownership.
Your Everyday: Setting the Framework You Operate In
Emotions are the backdrop of your day. They set the conditions under which you operate, whether you notice them or not. Strong emotional health is like having reliable equipment: you can trust it to perform under stress, adjust when conditions change, and keep you moving forward.
Health Goals: From Resistance to Routine
The difference between constant struggle and steady progress lies in your emotional systems. When you understand your triggers and patterns, you can engineer routines that last. With the right adjustments at the foundation, progress stops being about forcing yourself and starts being about consistent execution.
Relationships: Working in Tandem
Relationships are like partnerships in a demanding project. Sometimes the coordination is smooth, sometimes it slips. Emotional awareness gives you the tools to anticipate changes, recalibrate, and keep the partnership moving without unnecessary friction.
Professional Success: Emotional Power at Work
Career success isn’t shaped only by what you know. It depends far more on how you relate to others, navigate pressure, read the room, and respond when things feel frayed. Emotions shape the way you build relationships, navigate challenges, and manage the subtle balance of expectations. Emotional competence is what allows you to carry all the moving pieces with steadiness and clarity.
Family Bonds: Breaking Old Cycles, Building New Ones
Family habits can run like outdated scripts. They load automatically, even when they don’t serve you. Emotional strength gives you the tools to rewrite the code, keeping the parts that work and upgrading the rest. You’re not stuck with what you inherited; you can build a system that fits who you are now.
Modern Parenting: Holding It All Together
Parenting today is a heavy lift. The old playbooks don’t cover the complexity you face now. Emotional skill is your stabilizer: it helps you carry the pressure, stay present with your kids, and hold the line without burning out. You need tools to meet the chaos with steadiness, and presence where it counts most.

Emotional mastery with science and precision.
I work at the intersection of science and everyday life. My background is in evolutionary anthropology, psychotherapy science, and psychoanalysis. I’ve spent years (and continue to) studying how emotions are built, what they’re built for, and how they shape the way you live.
I don’t promise brisk breakthroughs or overnight change. Emotional growth is a slow, often uncomfortable process. It happens through deliberate work: examining yourself closely, facing truths you'd rather avoid, breaking through resistance, and repeating what doesn’t come naturally until it finally does. My work is for people who value in-depth insight and want to build lasting systems rather than temporary detours.
I offer psychoanalysis and coaching, host groups and workshops, and lead science-based classes to help you understand yourself and others more deeply, and to support a steady and coherent way of living and relating.
