I am casual and tattooed, and that tends to work for most people... even if it's vastly different from how people picture a typical 'therapist'. I feel very privileged to work with members of the LGBTQ+ community and believe I offer a unique perspective as a trans man (that also happens to be a therapist). I really enjoy providing support to folks while they explore components of their authentic identities. I am comfortable working with folks that identify with being poly and/or kinky (No shaming here!).

I work collaboratively and co-creatively with clients who are ready to identify goals and accomplish them using a planful, proactive approach that builds on their strengths. I believe self-compassion and self-care are fundamental to personal growth. I integrate body awareness and movement, as well as music, drama, and art, into treatment when it is appropriate and agreeable to clients.

You deserve to be heard. You deserve to take up space. You deserve to feel safe and at home in your body. Showing up is the hardest part, so kudos to you for being here and looking around. It takes courage to ask for support, especially when you're used to handling everything on your own. Maybe you’ve tried therapy before but it wasn't helpful. Maybe it was painful to stir up the past and difficult to put overwhelming emotions into words. I can support you differently—using yoga, art, play, and nature to enhance traditional talk therapy. Together, you will learn to heal and create the life you’ve been longing for.

As clinicians, we dedicate ourselves to helping others, but our own self-care is equally important. I know from experience it can be hard to find a good therapist that you're not already networked with professionally. That's why, as a SC-licensed independent clinical social worker located in Maryland, I opted to focus the SC side of my practice exclusively on working with fellow therapists.

Navigating life's transitions can be difficult, especially on our own. Gaining awareness into how we relate to others, ourselves, and the world around us, can be life altering. Where there has been unwanted and unexpected change, pain, and loss, there is space for growth and redemption. Allowing yourself permission to explore your life experience is challenging and ultimately freeing. In the counseling relationship, the foundation for healing is fostered through a safe, empathic, and shame-free environment; being met exactly as you are, where you are. Together we can find healthy and effective ways to cope and thrive.

I entered the counseling profession to support individuals who are having difficulties facing life’s challenges. I have found that many people struggle because they have created unrealistic expectations about the support, relationships, and encouragement they need. I believe that as humanity becomes “busier,” life becomes more complicated, affecting relationships and how we see ourselves fitting in the world. Life is often full of difficult and complicated experiences that are difficult to overcome, especially without support. Ultimately, these difficulties distract us from pursuing what enriches our lives.

My first mentor in the field of counseling told me, “You can't take anyone to where you've never been.” This sage advice has stayed with me for the 30-plus years that I have had the privilege of operating in this profession. These words have encouraged me to continue my own journey of self-exploration and healing and then, in turn, helped me to be more equipped to offer and support in the healing relationships that I have been privileged to play a role in over the years. Children, adolescents, and families have been a particular area of focus and expertise for me. From working in traditional outpatient settings to inpatient settings
