I want you to know that anyone experiencing low motivation, life changes, communication issues, relationships concerns, etc. can benefit from therapy.

Experienced individual and couples therapist. Often times, people find that they experience unhappiness, anxiety, or repeated obstacles to getting what they want in relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with what the "universe" throws your way, and which of your own behaviors and conflicts are contributing to your unhappiness. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to live more consciously and deliberately. I teach and practice psychoanalysis.

I approach the therapeutic process with reverence, openness, curiosity, and a desire to understand your unique experience. My goal is to provide a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and deepen your knowledge of yourself. I believe in the importance of cultural competency and responsiveness: I understand that your identity, your relationships, and your lived experiences provide meaning and context to your inner world. Let's be curious together as we figure out what contributes to and amplifies the challenges in your life, and explore ways to uncover your healthy self.

Therapy is about making meaning. Yes, most people start the process to develop coping skills and receive guidance during stressful times or life transitions, but that’s only the beginning of what it can achieve. If you approach this experience with curiosity and openness, I will help you unpack your history, identify patterns and make meaningful changes that leave you feeling like you are writing your own story.

Are you struggling with the current state of the world? Are you feeling frustrated with your work life? Are you finding that you end up in the same kind of relationships that just leave you feeling alone? Are you feeling overly stressed? Sometimes people come to therapy knowing what is wrong, and other times they come with just a feeling that something isn't right. Often, difficult thoughts, feelings, and past experiences prevent us from being comfortable with who we are, what we want, and the kinds of relationships that we want to have with others. I help you work through whatever is in your way.

I am not going to bullshit you, proper therapy is hard work. The work we will do together will be intense. Expectations will be set from session one about what you want to accomplish through treatment. I will hold you accountable, but in an empathetic and caring way. My patients have described me as "Invested, when I speak to him during sessions I can see how engaged and active he is to help me" as well as "Blunt, but compassionate. You can tell he cares and that allows him to challenge and push me to be a better version of myself".

Our mental health does not exist in a vacuum, it exists within a system. I see the source of all mental health issues as being rooted in the forces of oppression inherent in our society. The issues we each struggle with are responses to these conditions, rather than an individual ailment that exists only within us. My approach to therapy supports clients in deprogramming from the traumas of life under patriarchy, capitalism, and white supremacy. My expertise is working with addiction from a harm reduction approach and with people undergoing psychedelic therapy, but I also work with clients who have other treatment goals.
