I offer a safe and supportive environment for individuals of all sexual orientations and gender identities. As a queer identified male, I am committed to providing compassionate care that honors and validates each individual’s authentic self. I use a trauma informed approach that takes into account the unique struggles we face.

Many clients come to me seeking to work through the trauma of growing up in a society and culture where we faced bullying, oppression, microaggressions, and lack of acceptance and tolerance. This persists today both on a macro and micro level. The pain of disconnection, of feeling unseen, unheard, or like you don’t belong, can be very deep rooted and show up in subtle and no-so-subtle ways in our lives. As a queer man growing up in rural CA in the 80’s, I faced more than my share of this. Through my own journey, I learned that transformation is possible. By turning inward with compassion and understanding, we can heal the part of us that are still carrying wounds.  

I strive to foster a sense of belonging, acceptance, and empowerment for 2SLGBTQIA+ clients, recognizing the importance of understanding the intersections of identity and the impact they have on mental health. I am trans, poly, kink/BDMS affirming and offer a supportive space for you to express yourself for the amazing individual that you are. Whether you are exploring your identity, navigating coming out, or seeking support for mental health concerns, I am here to offer guidance, affirmation, and a judgment-free space where you can openly express yourself. My goal is to help you navigate your unique journey with compassion and support, empowering you to live authentically and thrive.

I hope to be an ally for you in expressing, loving and honoring yourself, healing past wounds, and moving forward in a life where you live authentically and joyously.
