My work is focused on helping clients develop self-compassion and self-acceptance. I utilize behavioral activation techniques in my practice and am more directive than traditional talk therapists. I specialize in working with people experiencing anxiety and depression and also have training in working with perinatal clients and neurodivergence.

I work with LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC individuals, teens, end-of-life clients, couples, and families; especially those who are dealing with life transitions, internal family conflicts, and systematic scrutiny.
Hi! My name is Trent (he/him). I believe in fostering deep connections with my clients by meeting them where they are at so I can better understand where their lived experience. I focus on creating a space for my clients to feel safe sharing without scrutiny or judgement and where they can be their true authentic selves. My perspective of therapy is one where the client is the captain of the ship and the therapist is the co-captain, always there to be the “tap on the shoulder” when necessary. I believe that people’s ideal lives are more attainable than they’ll ever imagine.

I work with couples dealing directly with their attachment problems with each other.
About 50% of my practice is with couples who vary in age,cultural background, and sexual orientation. I find couples work interesting and gratifying because of my interest in individual development and change, the system of the couple, and how each, the two individuals, and the relationship, influence each other.

Sometimes, we want to make changes but struggle with unknown parts of ourselves that seem to stop us. Habits, life long patterns and unconscious beliefs can hold us back from living the life that we long for. It takes time and courage to examine our belief system and reach out for what we really want. As a therapist, I follow the process of each individual. Clients are viewed on a spectrum of health, rather than through a lens of pathology. This approach creates a very curious and creative focus that encourages growth at the client’s own pace.

I also work with issues such as anger, relationship issues, and life changes/adjustments.
I want to share your moments, learn your perspective, sort the details, and walk through your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Sessions are designed to facilitate healing through evidence based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). We will explore avenues of self-discovery and enhance social, physical, and emotional well-being. All feelings are valid; however, what is the rational of the feeling? Where did it originate from? You may find your emotions have deeper links. I offer a listening ear and empathetic understanding in a non-judgmental safe space.
