About Me:
I am a National Certified Counselor (NCC) with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health and Rehabilitation Counseling. I learned in my past media career the power of people telling their stories to spark change, ignite emotions, and impact relationships. I draw on these skills to help clients explore their life stories in a safe, judgment-free, affirming space. As a cisgender gay man, I am dedicated to supporting those who feel unseen, unheard, or othered. I am inspired to help clients live with pride, joy, and a sense of meaning. From my own experience, I know that healing is possible and that every person’s story, like life itself, can change and grow. I am sex/kink positive, trauma-informed, and culturally humble. I use he/him pronouns.

Who I Work With & My Approach:
I offer individual and couples therapy for adults of all identities, with a focus on LGBTQIA+, kink, poly/CNM, and creative communities. I specialize in gender and sexual identity, trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, career/life transitions, and reconciliation with religious upbringing and identity. I support clients navigating conflicts between personal desires and family, religious, and societal expectations. My counseling approach is person-centered, meaning I see you with sincere curiosity and respect. I journey alongside you, offering encouragement and holding space for the hard emotions, like shame and sorrow, until seeds of new meaning, hope, and change take root. I provide an evidence-based, integrated counseling approach, which means I utilize proven methods from various counseling theories to create a customized plan with you that best suits your needs. We become partners in your counseling journey, where I respect your autonomy, decisions, and story with unwavering positive regard.

I Believe in Hope:
You are not broken, you are becoming. As your therapist, I offer the empathy of Mr. Rogers, the frankness of Dr. Ruth, the empowerment of Brené Brown, and the humor of Dan Savage, where we can discuss anything- from monogamy to poly, vanilla to kink, and the tame to taboo, all in a shame-free space. As Mr. Rogers says, “I like you just the way you are.” Come as you are, and let’s begin your journey toward authenticity and fulfillment.
