He completed his Bachelor of Arts in Sociology at Ithaca College, and his Master of Social Work at Boston University, where his focus was on clinical therapeutic work.

My practice is devoted to creating a reflective space where individuals can make fuller contact with who they are and actively stretch beyond the limits of what they can do alone. Attention to one's inner life requires respect and courage, and fosters greater understanding, healing, growth, and the making of a more fulfilling life. The changes my patients seek to make include several dimensions. Improvements are often sought with respect to painfully familiar habits of thought, feeling, and action (or inaction). These are often longstanding burdens that one has carried for quite some time.

In my work I focus on creating an environment that is safe enough for clients to explore feelings and experiences, and to delve into the things that worry them. Clients I work with are often struggling with parenthood, partners, or children, personal relationships, or major changes in life. I love working with clients who are curious and engaged, and for clients seeking art therapy services, therapy is also a priority to provide new means of expression and healing.

Support, encouragement, and motivation to instill change, one step at a time, is something i feel committed to help with as a therapist. Helping to improve mood and overall functioning would be a goal most of us desire to achieve.
