I believe that “trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.” I work with those who have experienced various forms of trauma, including shock, developmental, medical, relational, and religious trauma. I also work with those experiencing forms of depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and those experiencing systemic and cultural forms of oppression. I believe that everyone has the right to a nurturing and supportive space, and strive towards the ongoing creation of an inclusive environment for all.

Accepting new clients! I help people overcome difficulty and use it to grow and pursue a life of meaning and purpose. Sometimes we start by treating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, career, or LGBTQ+ and other identity issues, and over time turn to deeper issues about the life you want to create, your identity, and your values. I’m a humanistic counselor, which means I’ll never tell you what to do and I’ll always empower you to make the choice that’s best for you. I use a collaborative, gentle approach that helps you connect with your intuitive sense of self and your intrinsic motivation to grow and do difficult things.

On hold for new clients until Oct. 21st: Have you (or your son) had trouble relating to a therapist in the past? As men, the world expects us to bottle to our emotions and trauma up; even when we know it's tearing us apart. You want to be able to express yourself in a healthy way; that doesn't interfere with your identity as a man in a world that expects you to be strong.

I understand the exhaustion and hopelessness. The gut-punching anxiety that hits out of the blue. I know what it is like to feel lost and trapped at the same time. I decided to become a therapist after a successful academic career as a philosophy professor. I made the career change after facing and overcoming my own mental health challenges with the help of a therapist. The experience was so liberating that I wanted to share it with others.

Do you experience unwelcomed thoughts that you try to ignore without much success? Do you feel imprisoned by intrusive images in your mind? Do you worry excessively about something bad happening to someone you love if you do not perform some kind of ritual? Do you avoid things like kitchen knives, public restrooms, children? Unwelcomed thoughts can manifest themselves in many forms beyond just excessive handwashing or checking stove knobs. Fortunately, there are evidence-based treatments available to effectively treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, or OCD, a condition that affects as many as 7,000,000 people in the U.S. alone.

You feel trapped in a loop—thoughts racing, emotions spiraling, sensations overwhelming—unable to break free. Caught between the pressures of a disaffirming world and the discomfort of your own pain, uncertainty, and fear, you long for a space where your neurodiversity or LGBTQ+ identity is not just understood but celebrated, where you can explore the hard stuff without judgment. Your goal is to learn how to sit with discomfort, embrace uncertainty, and heal from the burdens of oppression. You want to move through life authentically, with more compassion for yourself and less fear of your emotions.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, masking your authentic self, substance use, anger, low self-esteem, or other issues that affect your relationships, work, school, or parenting? Do you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated and burnt out from an overwhelming amount of responsibility, stressors, and big life changes? Is it hard to relax, have fun, and be present in your day-to-day life? I believe it shouldn't be so hard to get through the day and live the life you want to live. I am able to meet people where they are, without judgement, and walk through hard times to find resolution and an opportunity to feel better.
