LGBTQ+ Affirmative

Even with all your success and amazing life experiences, you might still feel like you're not good enough. Maybe it's because your culture, community, or even your family made you believe that. So, despite all the validation you've received, small rejections still sting, and you find yourself constantly comparing yourself to others. It’s tough to feel truly confident as your authentic self, and you might wonder why you’re not thriving as much as you could be.

You Don't Have to Stay Stuck.

“On the other side [of therapy] is a life feeling confident and good about yourself.”

 

You’ve probably heard that before, along with other promises of happiness and contentment. 

 

This one is different.
 
When I first sought therapy, I found myself feeling unseen and misunderstood. While I was offered some useful tools for the issues I was struggling with, my identity as a gay man was ignored. 

 

The truth is that not many therapists understand the unique needs of our community. So, we often end up hiding in therapy—a space where we need be fully seen. 

 

I strongly believe that if you have to leave part of yourself at the door, you’re in the wrong room.

I have developed my own method for treating the LGBTQ+ community.

My method synthesizes the best of a variety of therapeutic modalities, including CBT, EMDR and attachment theory, that specifically targets the needs of our community. 

 

My goal isn’t to tell you what to do. 

 

My goal is to meet you where you’re at, learn about what makes you unique, and help you create the life you truly want to live.

 

You can experience a life where you feel like you’re thriving inside and out.

We will work together.

After years of specialized clinical training working with gay men, I've developed my own method for treating our unique needs. My method is based not only on therapeutic expertise, but on my own experience as an out gay man. My goal isn’t to tell you what to do. My goal is to help you create the life you want to live.
