People come to see me when they are stuck. This painful experience of not being able to find a way forward shows up in many ways: anxiety, career stagnation, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, self-criticism, sexuality, trauma. Speaking offers a way out of this suffering. In our work together, I will invite you to speak about your life and what is on your mind in detail—past and present, fantasy and reality. I will help bring you closer to your desire, conflict, and pain so you can understand the meaning that hides behind your suffering. This work offers a way forward that is more alive.

As an openly gay bi-cultural man, I’ve spent the better part of my adult life unlearning the harmful messages our world tells us about what it means to be different - that we are somehow broken or unworthy. I am here to tell you they are wrong. You are fabulous, vibrant, and deserving of all the gifts this world has to offer. I became a therapist to share what I’ve learned and to bring healing not just to queer folks, but to anyone who knows what it feels like to be left out. When we work together, you can expect a safe, affirming, and sometimes silly space where we collaborate to find real solutions you can implement right away.

It is my belief that we generally want to feel safe, secure and connected to ourselves, our families, friends and our communities. Obstacles to doing so can include circumstances outside of our control and also the results of our own learned patterns and behaviors. Therapy is an integral part of healing past trauma, validating one's thoughts/feelings/emotions, identifying dysfunctional patterns of engagement and learning new skills to cope. Through work with a therapist, it is possible to shape a life and relationships that include confidence, calm and presence that is so often missed in the busyness of society today.

Your potential is much greater than you even think. But psychological burdens -- such as depression, loneliness, guilt, and anxiety -- rob you of the freedom to feel, act, and choose. Self-protective strategies left over from childhood, ingrained but faulty ideas, and an absence of self-acceptance make life very, very difficult. I prefer to work in a reasonably short time frame but also recognize that your trust in me is essential to change. So my sessions are not always full steam ahead. Our closeness gives you courage.

I have helped many people improve coping skills and interpersonal relationships. I'm focused on your needs and committed to having you better prepared to handle your current issues each time you leave my office.
I am interactive and enjoy having an open dialog to help you find lasting solutions. We will explore any underlying unconscious issues from your past that may be contributing to your current life. Illuminating why you may be drawn to act in a negative way (even though you don't want to) often can help you to make better choices and feel better about life.
