If you are a queer and/or trans person of color looking to explore the ways that your intersectional identities shape your life, I may be the right fit for you! I'm interested in working with folks who want to move beyond mainstream, Western narratives of mental health and well-being, and connect with the roots and paths that have forged your unique path. How do we define our "best self", and what societal structures may have impacted that idea? How do we move towards being more comfortable and vulnerable at the expense of shattering lifelong ideas of how we are meant to live?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a form of Cognitive Therapy to help individuals who struggle with regulating and understanding their emotions. Patients are taught about themselves through how they feel, how to understand themselves and how to communicate their experience in a healthy manner that results in positive changes in daily life with improved relationships. The group involves an approach that involves mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. The group is ideal for individuals with depression, anxiety and relationship troubles.

I am a LCSW, CASAC and trained psychotherapist, specialize in the treatment of addictions, mood disorders, life transitions, relationship conflicts, PTSD, trauma. I practice from an existential psychotherapy approach that considers human nature to be open ended, flexible and capable of an enormous range of experience and change. I emphasize the subjective meaning and uniqueness of a person's experience and help patient's find their path in life that is their own that brings self-fulfillment and strength. This knowledge will in turn help us re-conceptualize presenting issues and gain a deeper understanding of the internal conflicts.

If you’re tired of Grindr but baffled by intimacy, this therapist-led group for gay men is your safe place to talk about it. As queer people, we’re taught having a mask helps us survive yet we also want meaningful connections. So how do we let go and allow for vulnerability when it feels right and protect ourselves when it doesn’t?

I believe that the best therapy is done when your relationship with your therapist has a strong foundation, meaning, you like and trust your therapist enough so the therapy space becomes a place for creating the changes you want. I believe in people and their ability to heal. We all develop patterns of being and thinking and sometimes those patterns just don't work anymore. I am compassionate when exploring emotional and psychological patterns, anxiety, depression or relationship issues to establish new boundaries, and feel empowered.

This group is recommended for people who are in, or have been in, individual therapy for OCD and are generally familiar with the concepts of exposure and response prevention (ERP).

I believe in the capacity of us all to define our life's path by taking risks and stretching in new directions. This can be one of the hardest parts of OCD and anxiety: feeling like your choices are dictated by the lump in your throat, the pit in your stomach, or obsessive thoughts. Before becoming a therapist, I was a practicing lawyer for 17 years. That experience informs my work with clients as we strengthen their inner advocate and, often, develop a truer understanding of who they are and want to be when actively choosing how to live. You are not that critical, anxious voice in your head; let's clarify and pursue the real you.
