Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome! I'm Brian, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Child Mental Health Specialist (CMHS). I work with adults and adolescents (ages 13-17). Life's challenges can be overwhelming and we may find ourselves feeling anxious, depressed, struggling in our relationships, or stuck in the lingering effects of past trauma. You are certainly not alone and I'm glad you are reading this. I can work with you. Currently accepting new clients both in-person and tele-health.

My approach to therapy

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice and focus on the link between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. Together, we'll explore how certain life events over the years have affected the way you understand yourself and your place in world. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to challenge unhelpful thoughts to improve and enhance your daily emotional experience.

What you can expect from me

My clients often find positive results after just a few sessions. I will teach you how to identify and change thoughts and beliefs which are getting in your way. I am a client-centered and relationship-based counselor. My style is warm, validating, and empowering. I believe the solutions to your problems are within you and we will discover them together.
