I identify as deeply spiritual, queer, an artist, a mindfulness teacher, and a therapist deeply committed to the art of healing through empathy and conversation. I believe too many people go through life confusing their true self with the person folks would like them to be. I feel honored to walk alongside his clients as they parse their identities, meeting the authentic individual as they uncover new parts of their self. I take pride in bringing compassion and care to sessions with my clients. I also work with couples through an EFT lens.
I am an existential therapist who pulls from ACT, DBT, narrative therapy, and a number of trauma treatment modalities including EMDR. I specialize in working with individuals navigating trauma, CPTSD, emotional dysregulation, overwhelm, crises of identity/spirituality, existential dread, poly/kink/BDSM, and LGBTQIA+-related issues.
CPTSD affects: Children of alcoholics/workaholics & individuals who grew up struggling to be seen for who they are (LGBTQ+, artists, neurodivergent folks) often describe feeling like outsiders who are "faking" knowing how to socialize. They often feel overwhelmed by emotions with hard-to-see triggers. Call and request a free 20 minute consult to learn more.
