With a specialized focus on empowering the LGBTQIA+ community, I offer compassionate support to individuals as young as 10 years old, as they navigate the complexities of mental health challenges. My commitment lies in fostering an inclusive and affirming space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I identify as a transmale and understand the challenges of finding a therapist who truly grasps the intricacies of gender and sexuality.

I specialize in working with individuals struggling with symptoms stemming from anxiety, trauma, life transitions and self esteem difficulties. No one should feel that they need to “push through” irritability, fatigue, distraction, sadness, anxiousness, shame or difficulty with staying present in their day to day life. Therapy will support you with the insight needed to not only heal, but to also thrive outside of therapy in the longterm. I believe when given the opportunity, we have the power to heal, thrive, and therapy can provide the support to do so.

Obtaining serenity by unburdening your mind. My hope is that I can help others by providing a calm, supportive, nurturing space where you can work through past experiences and build a peaceful future.

My work is focused on empowering my clients to feel both motivated and capable of achieving their goals. People have a natural tendency to heal and grow, but sometimes the work of self-exploration can be uncomfortable and difficult. I meet my clients where they are and we move at a pace they are comfortable with. This does not mean I won't challenge you to expand your comfort zone, only that I won't push you into the deep end of the pool without knowing you can swim. I find I do my best work with people who struggle with depression, anxiety, boundaries, communication, self-esteem, stress and time management, and mindfulness.
