Sometimes our relationships with others, or ourselves, get stuck. We may have lost direction, purpose, or meaning, and we become unsure of who we are or who we are in our relationships with other people. We may feel alone, sad, or scared. Some of us become overwhelmed by naming these emotions. Some of us may choose to isolate ourselves and think we must navigate this life alone. In these moments, we are invited to pay attention; when we do, we begin healing. Therapy can be a gift, inviting you to look inward and grow.

My approach to therapy is client-centered, collaborative, and relational. I will create a warm, approachable, and trusting environment for you to begin making changes and progress toward growth and healing. I will hold space for you and meet you where you are, providing compassion and understanding.

My unique background has prepared me to accompany you through this journey. I have walked with people in life's ups and downs, joys, and concerns. The connection and trust we build is central to your success. Reach out to me, and let's see if there is a potential fit.

Being LGBTQ in our society presents a unique set of challenges and issues that can manifest and impact one's sense of self and ability to achieve the things one hopes to get from life. Over a decade of professional and personal experience has given me the knowledge to integrate understanding and compassion in my therapeutic work with LGBTQ people, particularly other gay men.
