Many life experiences impact the way we see our selves and the world, while certain experiences may cause us to disconnect from who we are and a life that is meaningful to us. I aim to help clients make sense of their experiences and reconnect with a more meaningful, aligned life. Our work will combine honest, deep conversation with moments of humor and lightness to make difficult conversations approachable. I also provide psychological assessments for children and adults (e.g., ADHD, Autism, and more) to support clients in understanding and normalizing their experiences, while gaining access to helpful accommodations.
I value working with individuals navigating the impact of various forms of trauma, such as sexual trauma, childhood abuse, and domestic violence. I also have extensive experience working with mood disorders (e.g., anxiety and depression), identity (e.g., sexual, gender, racial/ethnic identity), weight stigma, disordered eating, and neurodivergence.
Identities matter in how we experience and navigate the world; thus, I strive to be transparent about my own identities. I am a Multiracial, queer, cisgender man. I value being genuine as a therapist to help build a safe and connected therapeutic space. For virtual sessions, you may also meet my co-therapist—a very cute, and often loud, corgi.
