As a queer trans man and a licensed social worker, I understand the complexities of challenges related to sex, sexuality, and gender identity. With years of experience working with the LGBTQIA+ community, I recognize that everyone has their own unique path. I also specialize in substance use disorders, anxiety and mood disorders, thought disorders, chronic illness, and crisis management.
I am committed to fostering a safe and inclusive environment where clients can navigate life’s challenges with care and compassion. I utilize a harm reduction approach when working with clients who struggle with addiction, as meeting clients where they are is critical in the recovery process.
Treating clients holistically is a key aspect of my practice, as emotional, physical, and mental health needs often overlap. This comprehensive understanding enables me to assist clients in achieving their goals.
