I believe therapy works best when it's built on a real connection. My goal is to give you a space where you can stop pushing your emotions aside and start making sense of them. I want to help you close the gap between who you are and how you live.

I work mainly with gay men and members of the LGBTQ2IA+ community. My focus is on identity, relationships, and emotions. In practice, that looks like:

  • Values Alignment — Figuring out what matters to you. Then building a life that reflects it.
  • Emotional Resilience — Moving from pushing feelings down to understanding them. We work on breaking patterns that hold you back and building better coping skills.
  • Relational Healing — Learning more about your own needs and patterns. This helps you connect with others in a deeper way.
  • Trauma Integration — Processing past experiences so they have less power over your life. The goal is to build a stronger sense of who you are going forward.

I became a therapist because I was drawn to the science of how people heal — and because this community needed more of us in the room. I am also a member of the LGBTQ2IA+ community. This work is personal to me, not just professional. I want to help queer people build a stronger and kinder relationship with themselves, and a life that reflects who they actually are.
