Who I am as a Therapist

I believe everyone has the inherent right to change, grow, and heal. Life is complicated, and its challenges affect every part of who we are—both individually and in our relationships. As a relational therapist, my goal is to walk alongside you, witness your humanity, and move with you toward a place of self-compassion and resilience.

My clinical approach is rooted in a narrative, experiential, and emotion-focused lens. I recognize that alongside your primary story are many layers of feeling, circumstance, and context. I warmly welcome all individuals and relationship structures, including monogamous, ethically non-monogamous, queer, poly, kink, and straight identities. In our sessions, we will "zoom in" on your personal experiences and "zoom out" to examine the broader communities and societal contexts that shape us.

I also specialize in working with grief, death, and loss, universal experiences that require deep reflection. As a trauma-informed, queer, male-presenting therapist, I am mindful of how identity and privilege impact the therapeutic relationship; you are the expert on your life, and I honor your experience with cultural humility. With 20 years of experience as an educator and coach, I enjoy working across the lifespan—whether you are a young person, a parent, or a couple re-authoring your connection. I provide a collaborative, non-judgmental space, and I am glad you are here.

Who I am when I'm not a Therapist

I love travel, the arts, live music, good food, and low-key chillin'. Whether I’m camping, dancing, or just outdoors, my favorite moments are spent with friends, family, and our two pugs, who keep life delightfully silly.
