I work with gay men and queer people who would like to feel more empowered, more at ease, and more connected in their lives and relationships! It’s not easy to walk your own path and find safety, belonging, and purpose in this world. If you identify as LGBTQIA, you didn’t grow up with good models for queer relationships. Even if your life is "perfect on paper," it might be a challenge to find trust, deepen intimacy, set boundaries, stay centered, and go after the life you want.
I practice body-based, mindful psychotherapy. These powerful methods can cut through speech and story to help people relieve symptoms of trauma, anxiety, and depression, feel more at home in their bodies, and come into fuller, more alive ways of being in relationship.
Including the body to go beyond talking and thinking, our work can integrate body and mind to impact the way you move, grow, and express yourself in the world. I know it can be hard to make a change and how vulnerable it can be to ask for help. You don’t have to be alone in this - I’m here to help. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you have!
