You may feel invalidated by others, overwhelmed by responsibilities, or invisible in your closest relationships. You’ve tried to push through, but it’s exhausting when no one truly sees how hard you’re working just to hold things together.
In our work together, we’ll uncover root causes, strengthen self-trust, and create practical, brain-based strategies for lasting change. My approach integrates neuroscience, trauma-informed care, DBT, and CBT to restore balance, focus, and resilience. I’m intentional about providing culturally responsive, affirming care for men, POC, survivors of childhood trauma, BPD, PD, and LGBTQ+ clients.
I help clients rebuild trust in themselves, improve relationships, and regain control after trauma or stress. Using brain-based, trauma-informed methods like CBT, EMDR, DBT, I teach practical tools for regulation, focus, & communication. Forensic counseling for court-ordered-therapy clients and foster or adoptive families navigating complex family systems.
Clients often describe me as insightful, humorous, with a direct approach—affirming & compassionate. I offer a judgment-free space for blended families, diverse identities, and poly relationships. Therapy through this listing is provided via Affinity Psychology Ser., an insurance-based practice. Together, we’ll identify root causes & build beneficial change.
