One of my favorite song lyrics says, "I'm just a spirit trying to be human." There’s so much weight that lives inside those words: emotions, questions, uncertainty. For those of us who wander, question who we are, or wonder what our purpose is, we can stumble if life hasn’t met our expectations. The majority of my clients identify as misfits, empaths, spiritual beings, and highly sensitive people who have survived childhood trauma, harsh life transitions, and an occasional identity crisis.

My sincerest hope is that any who reach out to me will feel supported and welcomed.

My therapy style is mainly using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Culturally sensitive approaches to provide space for change in the client. I have also trained in trauma-informed care and more interpersonal approaches such as Gestalt and Psychodynamic. I love seeing the change in the client. Once change happens, it is like a whirlwind. That drives me to continue to do this work. I am honest and direct, I like for my clients to feel confident enough to challenge me if necessary. Goal setting is a collaborative approach between me and the client. We determine the goal and how to approach said goal.

I share my licensure, clinical experience, and how I conduct therapy with clients. At the beginning of each session, I ask about the time between sessions and any new insights or challenges. I ask clients what they would like to work on and then I share what my goals are. I provide feedback if relevant during the session. At the end of each session, I ask how clients are emotionally and mentally and discuss specific goals for time between sessions. I consistently ask for client's feedback regarding their therapy experience and if anything needs to change.

As a male therapist specializing in male psychology, I bring a nuanced perspective to the therapeutic process. I firmly believe that masculinity, in its essence, is not toxic or a problem to be solved. Instead, I view masculinity as a diverse and multifaceted aspect of human identity that deserves celebration and exploration. My goal is to create a therapeutic space where men can embrace their masculinity authentically, free from societal pressure or stereotypes. My mission is to break down the barriers that prevent men from seeking help and to challenge the stigma surrounding men's mental health.

Your voice is valid and you deserve to be heard. Life unfolds whether we feel in control or not. It is helpful to have a place to explore, discover, vent, and release the anchors that might be weighing us down and making life just a bit too difficult. Therapy is a way to soften the "shoulds", identify strengths, and face our shadows.
