Hello! I am Gay-identified clinician; my goal is to team up with you and identify what you’d like to work on and together, tackle those challenges head-on. I’m here to help you with anything from relationships, to work/family stress, sexuality, gender identity, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, panic disorder, life adjustments, major health changes. As a gay male, I vowed to work with LGBTQI individuals as I know first hand how challenging it is to find a clinician that has a lived understanding of the struggles within the community. I work with all adults, specializing in LGBTQI issues.
I've been the person feeling vulnerable and looking for a therapist. It's a disconcerting process. I've felt judged by others; I vowed that one day I would become a therapist and provide a safe space for my clients; a place where he/she feels inclusive.
Everyone is entitled to have bad day, challenging times, or things that nobody would understand. That's why it's important to talk to someone about it; that someone who wants to team up with the client and work together to get to a better place emotionally.
