Your culture shapes how you see the world — and how the world sees you. And that matters in therapy. As a queer man of color, I deeply understand how identity, inclusion, and lived experience affect your mental health — especially if you're part of the LGBTQIA+ community. Many of my clients are gay men navigating anxiety, relationships, self-worth, or questions around identity. Others come for support with depression, parenting, recovery, or career uncertainty. Some are simply feeling stuck, or just trying to stay afloat. Wherever you're starting from, you're not alone.
I offer collaborative, affirming in person and virtual therapy, where you can show up fully and move toward the life you want—at your pace, on your terms. Some prefer weekly sessions, others check in periodically. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. I meet clients where they are, using techniques tailored to your unique needs.
Our time together will be rooted in real connection — a space where you can explore, heal, and grow. I also offer a free 15-minute consultation to introduce myself and answer any questions you may have.
