Maplewood, MN 55109
Healing is a personal and political process. As a transgender man, I understand how hard it is to find a provider who can see the whole picture of who you are, your identities, and your experiences. You deserve a therapist who understands that. I want to support you in building a life that feels more authentic and sustainable. After all, you are not the problem. The problem is the problem. When we can see the problem for what it is, it creates space for us to dream and work towards a better future.

My ideal clients are teens and adults who feel like they've been swimming upstream — often without knowing why. Many are navigating ADHD or Autism, carrying the weight of years spent masking or misunderstood. Others are processing trauma, chronic anxiety, or a life transition that's left them unsteady. What they share is a readiness to understand themselves more deeply and a desire for therapy that meets them where they actually are — not where they "should" be. They want real tools, genuine connection, and a space where their whole self is welcome.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
