It is not my place to tell you how to feel or how to be in response to life; your experiences, desires, and goals are your own. It is my job to work on understanding, as best I can, what you envision for your life and assist you in bringing it into the world. Sometimes this work can be focused on a particular area or issue, while other times it can feel harder to pin-down the exact cause. We start where you are and then collaborate on finding a way forward together.
I work from an humanistic framework and make use of various techniques to promote growth, e.g., analytic, cognitive behavioral, constructivist, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and voice dialogue/"parts work." I specialize in working with men, but I richly enjoy working with people of different gender identities across the lifespan.
I like to think that I have a brotherly approach to counseling work that is both companionable and hopeful. Sometimes it's just pointing out that the problem is not inside of you, but in an oppressive system that perpetuates injustices. Regardless, I invite you to reach out to me if you think I can be of service. I am happy to be helpful.

Counseling can look a lot of different ways- developing skills, reprocessing past experiences, examining meaning and identity- there is no "one size fits all" for this work. I will discuss some of the approaches we can take in our first meeting, but it's also okay for you to change your mind. It's an ongoing process that we can navigate together.
