I decided to become a counselor because I’ve always been drawn to supporting people through life’s challenges and helping them uncover their strengths. I’m passionate about creating a safe, affirming space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to heal and grow. My own experiences with religious, childhood and other past traumas inspired me to help others navigate similar struggles with compassion and care."

I work best with LGBTQ+ adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, identity issues, and life transitions.

I wish all clients knew that healing is a journey, not a quick fix, and every small step you take toward understanding yourself, building resilience, and living authentically matters.

In your first session, we’ll get to know each other, explore your goals, and begin shaping a collaborative approach. Early sessions focus on creating a safe space, identifying patterns, and starting to build practical tools, insight, and self-compassion.

As a queer man, my experiences inform my practice, helping me create a compassionate, affirming space. I value authenticity, advocacy, and meeting clients where they are while supporting growth, resilience, and self-compassion.

I tailor therapy to each client by listening closely, honoring their experiences, and using approaches like solution-focused, trauma-informed, and CBT strategies. Together, we create a personalized, affirming space to build insight, resilience, and self-compassion.
