I am a gay therapist who helps gay men to heal. I specialize in working with intergenerational trauma, narcissistic family systems, estrangement, self-esteem, and relationships.

I believe the past can inform our present patterns of thought and behavior. But I won’t keep you spinning, needing to know the why of every feeling and impulse. I’ll let you know when knowing the why will elicit deeper change.

I have a background in the arts and work well with active and creative minds. And I know the challenge when the creative goes corporate. Whether you’re an actor or an accountant, I’ll help you find balance, keeping you connected to your creative self.

I’m sex-positive and anti-shame. Although shame (like most things) isn’t all bad, but it’s usually used to control and suppress. Which sucks. Fear isn’t all bad either. It keeps you from running into traffic. But it’s usually what’s hiding in the shadows, spewing hatred towards self and others, preventing the change you need. I’ll unshackle you from fear that does not serve you.

Therapy is an additive process. I’ll give you new insights and tools and choice. It’s not my goal to get rid of anything about you. But we’ll dismantle the protective mechanisms that you once needed, but are now outdated.
