Other focus areas include: sex/ sexuality, healthy boundaries, and inner child work.
I specialize in working with individuals who have been impacted by traumatic and/or distressing life experiences and circumstances. Attachment wounds as well as single incident traumas are ruptures that result in a sense of disconnection from ourselves, others, and the world. This is an adaptive reaction to abnormal events. In time, you may realize that living life in ‘survival’ mode is no longer serving you. You may feel disengaged from those around you, numb or empty, or feel ‘too’ sensitive, emotional, or reactionary. Connecting with others may feel overwhelming. You are deserving and capable of growth, connection, and healing.

I believe strongly in the fundamental value of sexuality as an inherent, essential and beneficial dimension of being human.
"Did you ever get the feeling the world was a tuxedo and you were a pair of brown shoes?" George Gobel. Life is tough, sex should be good! I am an LPC specializing in sex therapy. I know seeking someone to share a taboo topic with can be daunting, but once you get there it's worth it! I provide a comfortable and judgement free space where I work with clients to reflect on their sexual experiences throughout the lifespan. We start with a simple question; "When was the last time you had sex, and how was it?"

I focus on intimacy and sexual health concerns with individuals as well as couples, with an interest in non-traditional relationships and the LGBTQ+ community.
Intimacy is often a difficult topic to talk about, but one that affects many individuals and relationships. My role is to help you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be. Together we will collaborate to create realistic, attainable goals and a therapy plan that is the best fit for you. Being a systemically trained therapist means that I look not only at who is sitting in front of me, but all of the things affecting you, and how those impact your experiences and interactions. I am also a Prepare and Enrich Certified Facilitator as well as have an Opioid Training Certificate. Evening appointments available.

My best work is with clients who need to love themselves more. I enjoy working with clients with low self-esteem, self-doubt, and anxiety, and working with them to extend more care to themselves. Often, these concerns can intersect with trauma, grief and loss, loneliness, experiences of bias and discrimination, and more - all of which I am glad to work with clients to address! Additionally, I am an expert in taking a nonjudgemental, abortion-positive approach to supporting people who have had abortions. I am also happy to work with clients around other family-building and reproductive topics.

We love to collaborate with clients to help them draw from their own expertise, build on their own positive values, discover their own skills, and use these new tools to work through conflicts and hardships. We are systems therapist. What that means is: we like to approach problems that people have within the context of social, political and cultural storylines that influence the way we view ourselves and our own personal stories. We use this same approach in family therapy to seek ways to change the way the family system works rather than trying to "fix" a specific family member.

Change promotes growth. Whether self-generated or completely unexpected, change can be challenging for some, and inspirational for others. Having a clinical partner to join you as you navigate your journey can ease the stress that comes along with the inevitable changes that you will encounter throughout life. My clinical approach is to work with you to emphasize your personal strengths and to help you discover ways to feel at peace with yourself, especially when facing stressful times. I work with individuals and couples to help you feel supported as we partner together to accomplish your goals.

My clients are adult individuals, couples, and partners who want deeper relationships. They're experiencing life transitions, grief, or they've reached a point in their lives where old strategies aren't working anymore and they want to create new patterns in their lives. They want to release old hurts, feel more ease and freedom in their spirits and bodies, and understand themselves and their partners better.

If you feel like things could be better, you're probably right. Maybe you're struggling in your relationship — you keep having the same fight, and feel unheard and stuck. (Or you're not fighting, because you're more like roommates than romantic partners.) Or maybe you've always held it together pretty well, but you're finally realizing how anxiety, trauma, or that unkind inner critic has been subtly (and not so subtly) affecting you, keeping you from getting the most out of life. Whether it's been weeks, months, or years, you know don't want want to feel this way forever.

I am open and affirming to people with LGBTQAI and alt sex identities, and welcome traditional and non-traditional relationship types.
I offer individual and relationship therapy on a wide array of topics. You are the expert in your life, and my goal is to create an accepting, non-judgmental environment, which offers you the opportunity to explore patterns and behaviors that no longer benefit you. My passion is helping people recognize that they are their own greatest resource.

With an understanding that you are an expert on your own life and experiences, I enjoy working collaboratively with clients to support them in their journey to actualized wellness. Utilizing a systemic lens allows for a non-blaming, holistic approach to identifying difficult interactional patterns, historical/familial patterns of behavior, and encourages clients to take ownership of the things that are within their control while allowing them let go of the things that are not. Therapy can be a scary and difficult process and I strive to show up authentically to allow clients' conscious exploration of their healing journey.

Welcome to my Psychology Today profile. My name is Dan. My approach to therapy is eclectic, but what I believe is most important is the therapeutic relationship. If you don't feel comfortable and relaxed, your healing and growth will feel more like work than a journey. I try to create an atmosphere tailored to your specific needs and desires. Whether you're seeking a guide, a teacher, or an instructor; I can fill that role and ensure you feel comfortable enough to ask for a change of pace. Seeking therapy can feel like an intimidating ordeal, my aim is to make it a tranquil yet invigorating hike through nature.

My first ten years as a psychotherapist were spent in New Orleans, where I worked, in part, to provide support and healing to members of a community ravaged by the traumas of Hurricane Katrina and the BP Oil Spill. This experience equipped me to serve people within the context of dramatic and disruptive life changes. I collaborate with my clients to manage their symptoms, transform the effects of trauma and grief, address creatively relationship issues, career changes and artistic blocks, and engender personal growth.

You and your partner are struggling to communicate. The emotional intimacy has lost its spark and physical connection is fading. We aren't connecting and the stress is high. You want to heal together instead of growing apart. You want to be a better partner! You need to shake up how you talk to each other in order to make this to work; there is so much at stake to maintain the relationship you've built. There is so much you want to share with your partner, and you need help learning how to engage again. You can learn how to be vulnerable with one another by increasing your communication skills and learning how to listen again.
