Accepting Clients

Hi, I’m Bryan! I value humor and authenticity in therapy with teens and adults. Licensed in MA & CT. Let’s connect!

Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Arlington, MA

About My Clients

You might find yourself stuck in cycles of overthinking, avoiding things that matter to you, or feeling weighed down by anxiety, self-doubt, or major life transitions. I help people navigating anxiety, OCD, phobias, identity development, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I specialize in working with students pre-college through early career, but my clients range from teens to older adults.

My Background and Approach

I put a lot of emphasis on building a genuine connection and getting to know you first - because therapy works best when you feel comfortable being yourself. From there, we’ll explore the patterns that keep you stuck and work together to build practical, sustainable ways of coping that actually fit your life. I prioritize building a supportive, trusting therapeutic relationship, believing that meaningful growth starts with feeling truly seen and understood. My approach is integrative & client-centered, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, & Solution-Focused Therapy to tailor our work to your unique goals. Together, we’ll explore practical tools & deeper insights to help you better understand yourself, move beyond self-limiting patterns, & navigate challenges that may be getting in the way of your goals. Finding the right therapeutic fit is essential & I’d be glad to set up a phone consultation to see if working together feels like a good match!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I bring a social justice, LGBTQ-affirming, and anti-racist lens to therapy, and aim to create a space that feels collaborative, genuine, and deeply supportive. Outside of my practice, I work with a nonprofit agency that supports the disabilities community and have offered social skills, relationship, and career coaching for individuals with autism. I'm a dog dad, travel lover, and proud movie nerd with lots of recommendations I am ready to share! If you want to learn more about me and if working together would be the right fit, shoot me a message and we can find a time to chat by phone.
