I am a compassionate and experienced therapist dedicated to providing support and guidance to individuals facing anxiety, depression, and substance use issues. I am trained in EMDR therapy and happy to offer this effective, evidence-based treatment to those who are yearning to move past their trauma and re-claim their agency. As a gay man, I have a special focus on working with my LGBTQ+ siblings and anyone who has felt left out or marginalized by rigid stereotypes in American culture. My mission is to create a safe and affirming space where clients can explore their concerns, heal, and build a happier, healthier life. I believe in the power of a warm and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship as a foundation for healing and personal growth. My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from various evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Life can present us with many challenges, but you don't have to face them alone. Together, we can embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal growth. If you're ready to take the first step toward a happier, more fulfilling life, I'm here to support you.
