Anyone can give advice. In my experience, people come to therapy looking for something they cannot get anywhere else. Usually they are struggling with anxiety, depression, or some other issue that they have not been able to solve on their own. How does therapy help? My philosophy is that we heal through relationship—not in isolation. So rather than providing a list of pre-scripted tools, I strive to develop genuine connections with my clients. But beyond simply looking for relief from troubling symptoms, my goal is to help you create the life you want to live.
Your therapy should be distinctively yours. No two people are the same. So my goal is to utilize specific therapeutic tools uniquely tailored to your needs. My method synthesizes the best of several therapeutic approaches including EMDR, cognitive behavioral therapy, internal family systems and attachment theory.
You don’t have to stay stuck. If you’re like most clients I work with, you don’t want to just live–you want to thrive. I’ll help you set clear goals for treatment, understand how your past is informing your present and develop strategies to optimize your life to its fullest potential. To get started, schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation.

Groups
Gay Men’s Trauma Therapy Group
This group will provide a safe space for gay men to heal from trauma. Unfortunately, gay men are more likely to experience trauma than straight men. And, it's often difficult for gay men to find a space to begin to unpack their traumatic experiences. That's what you'll experience in this group: a safe environment to recover from trauma. In fact, many folks find that the healing process is quicker in a group setting, rather than traditional individual therapy. Interested to learn more?
