About
I work with many types of clients, but specialize in working with queer and trans people, couples, and other forms of relationships (triads, polycules, open, polygamous, etc.). I deal primarily with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, family conflict, grief and loss, transitions, stress management, trauma, sex-related issues and traumas, kink and BDSM, behavioral and substance addictions, and chronic pain and chronic illness. I work primarily with adults. I love working with clients that bring their whole self to therapy as I do too. I always encourage feedback to ensure the therapeutic process feels affirming and healing. I use a person-centered, relationship-focused approach, believing that as I build a relationship with the person or people seeking therapy, the therapeutic process becomes more beneficial. I focus on making the client feel comfortable, heard, and safe, so we can make progress together. I tend to focus on the client's strengths and resources as well. I identify as a cisgender, gay, White, disabled, Jewish man. I recognize how my identities show up in the therapy space and I enjoy discussing how our identities interact. I have a chronic pain disability, so sometimes in person sessions have to be moved online day-of session. I'm looking forward to getting the opportunity to connect with you.
