Let's Connect (504) 732-0511
I draw from my experiences working in hospitals, theatre, and teaching settings to cultivate a creative and warm therapeutic environment. I practice narrative therapy, so I co-work with clients to consider the contexts, cultures, and structures of power which influence and create their worlds. Through this effort, I help clients relate to “problems” as culturally specific phenomenons that exist outside of us. I see humans as inseparable from their environment, so explore relationship dynamics inside and outside of the therapy room. I sometimes write my clients letters about our sessions, so if you enjoy pen pals, I'm your guy!
I see children and adults of all ages and work with relationships. I enjoy working with my fellow queer and trans community. I offer outdoor/walking therapy, including outdoor group therapy. I am trained in EMDR for all ages, and somatic therapies. I use mindfulness exercises to help people access presence, regulation, and self-trust.
I prioritize transparency and celebrate questions during the therapeutic process. I want my clients to know that they matter to me and impact me, but that their time in therapy is about them. I continuously work to build trust and mutual respect. When appropriate, I use play and creativity to access our human right to joy.

Groups
Wandering Together: Outdoor Group Therapy
Learn more & register: crescentcitypsychotherapy.com/group. This group involves walking meditations in nature, expressive eco arts, sensory awareness activities, and verbal group processing. Walking induces bilateral stimulation, which helps to integrate our emotional and cognitive experiences. As a result, we gain a greater ability to process our thoughts and feelings. Walking, being in nature, and expanding our sensory awareness can also help to integrate our nervous system, which supports emotional regulation, mindfulness, trauma recovery, and more. Dates: Sep 11th - Oct 30th. 8 sessions with 8 max participants.
