I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors seeking a path out of the "stuckness" of trauma, anxiety, and grief. I specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals navigating the intersection of identity and spirituality, particularly those healing from religious trauma or life transitions. Many come to me feeling disconnected from their bodies or weary from the weight of past selves. Using Somatic Experiencing, I help you move beyond talk therapy to resolve how trauma lives in the nervous system. We work together to honor your history while building a lived sense of safety, flow, and bodily wholeness.

I focus on marginalized populations and am versed in multicultural counseling. It's been a rough couple of years, and this one harder than most. So many of us are feeling exhausted, overwhelmed and cast out. Suddenly, you might have noticed those bottles of wine going faster, your temper growing shorter, and the stress piling up. Everyone needs something from you, but you've given so much already and aren't sure where to refill yourself. Trans and LGBQ+ clients are my primary focus. Or/and perhaps you are a member of additional marginalized identities and facing additional stresses or obstacles in our society. Self-care IS activism.

You're tired of feeling stuck in the same patterns—the relationship conflicts that keep repeating, the anxiety that won't quiet down, the sense that you're going through the motions instead of actually living. You know something needs to change, but you're not sure where to start.
Together, we'll look at both what's happening now and what shaped these patterns. I help clients untangle the thoughts that keep them trapped, process emotions they've been carrying too long, and develop tools that actually work in real life—not just in theory.

Real lasting positive change is possible. And it doesn’t have to take the rest of your life. Whether you want to improve your relationships, feel better about yourself, finally quit your addiction(s), resolve anxiety or depression, or heal pain from the past, I provide professional therapy for real healing, growth, and change. Sometimes this means learning to create greater safety inside – more kindness and less criticism. Sometimes it's about becoming more embodied, grounded, and present. Sometimes it’s about going back into the past to heal what was hurt. It's different for everyone, but possible for anyone.

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
