About My Clients

I specialize in working with gay men and male couples, and am welcoming of all men who want to heal from trauma and improve their relationships.

My Background and Approach

My approach integrates EMDR and attachment-focused therapy to heal from trauma, build secure attachment, improve self-esteem, and create healthy, lasting relationships. I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Social Work in Trauma-Informed Leadership and Practice, as well as advanced EMDR certification in Complex Developmental Trauma.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I promote the inherent dignity and worth of all people. I firmly believe that trauma is not what happened, but what we internalized as a result of difficult life experiences. By changing the way we hold our stories, we can heal and create lasting relief and change. As an active member of the LGBTQ+ community, I am welcoming and affirming of all gender identities, sexual orientations, and relationship structures.
