I draw on aspects of mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, humanistic, psychodynamic, and acceptance and commitment therapy to assist clients in improving their symptoms, relationships, self-image, and coping strategies.
I strongly believe that therapy should be a safe place where anyone can come and talk about their life without judgment or shame. It is a place where everyone can benefit from unconditional empathy, understanding, and grace. I am an outgoing person who is easy to talk to, and I do my best to make the therapeutic process as smooth and understandable as possible. We will go at your pace and create a personalized treatment plan to meet your needs and goals. I strive to help you become self sustaining where you can gain a sense of understanding of what skills you need, why you are utilizing them, and when to utilize the skills learned.

I utilize numerous evidence-based interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and other evidence-based interventions.
I describe myself as an "individualized therapist" because I utilize different evidence-based techniques from different theoretical orientations to help my clients. Using and applying one theory and one technique does not help a client. Therapists must utilize different modalities and constantly think outside the box to help their clients. I believe in collaborative teamwork and an interactive approach with my clients to get the help they seek. I encourage my clients to give their input and opinions and give them only the best. If this is what you are seeking, cont act me.

I am a Harvard-trained psychologist who specializes in using transdiagnostic (CBT, DBT, and ACT) strategies to help you find joy.
My clients are gay and bisexual men who have needed to mask their authentic selves because their identities were not embraced by the world. They often find they are doing well in achievement-based activities (work, school, sports), but deep down they still do not feel good enough or worthy. This is because while the mask allowed them to dodge potential rejection and societally-inflicted shame, it also distanced them farther from their authentic selves. Many of my clients read the "Velvet Rage" and felt seen, but were left wanting actionable strategies that will help them break the shackles of shame and embrace self-compassion.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists

How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.

What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?

The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.

Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?

Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.

How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?

A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
