I offer a creative, youth-centered approach to help boys and young men who are impacted by mental and behavioral health concerns. I begin work with each individual by seeking to understand their personality and identities, their unique skills and challenges, the systems and environments they are living in, and the way mental health symptoms are getting in the way of their valued goals. I prioritize building a strong therapeutic relationship as a pathway to help the individual connect more deeply to themselves and those around them.
I specialize in supporting boys as they navigate the development of a masculine identity. I use outside-the-box approaches to build a relationship and help this population explore themselves and new mental skills; I love using sports, music, and movement outdoors to connect with youth through settings and activities that are naturally engaging for them.
Whether in the park or in the office, I also use the philosophy and skills of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy as core modalities in all of my work. If you are or know a boy who might benefit from my approach, please reach out or fill out the consultation form found on my website!
