Great to meet you!

I am an imaginative, therapist of color who operates best with people who enjoy a good laugh, are insightful, and willing to challenge themselves.

My approach to therapy

My approach is relationship-driven. An authentic relationship is pivotal to healing, as we process the past, navigate the present, and plan for the future. If you are looking for a clinician who can carry your burdens when you are unable, who can challenge and push you when you are at your most stuck, who is unafraid to grit his teeth and persevere with you through your hard times—especially when they are ugly—I’ve got you.

What you can expect from me

My purpose is to create a safe, non-judgmental environment in which you can share, process, and work towards whatever goal you so desire. While learning and practicing skills is important for growth, my focus is on your complete whole. I am invested in the whole of you, and not just the parts which hurt.
