Business Excerpt
As a therapist, I practice a person-centered, social justice-informed approach that employs Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy tools/techniques. I am also Internal Family Systems informed. I want to meet you where you are. I would like to help you employ your strengths to get what you want. I would like to help you find tools and knowledge of basic neurology to change thoughts, if you choose to. I like to work to give people therapy in a way that feels right but also pushes you to lean into some discomfort. As a proud bisexual, trans man, I love to work with my LGBTQIA communities. I celebrate kinky and poly people. I strive to be an imperfect ally to non-binary trans people and people of color.
