My approach in therapy is collaborative, supportive, and goal oriented.

I work with people who are thoughtful and self-aware, but feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. You might find yourself caught between who you are and who you feel you’re “supposed” to be—driven more by pressure or anxiety than by a clear sense of what actually feels right. In our work together, the focus is on helping you understand yourself more deeply while also creating meaningful change. Sessions are active and collaborative, often incorporating humor and metaphor, with a balance of insight and practical movement forward. I draw from relational cultural theory, narrative therapy, and solution-focused approaches, adapting to what feels most helpful for you. My work is trauma-informed and identity-affirming, and I approach your story with curiosity, care, and respect. As a cis, queer man from the evangelical South, I bring lived insight into how power, privilege, and systems shape identity and mental health. I’m mindful of how these dynamics can show up both in your life and in the therapy room. Over time, clients often feel more grounded in who they are, more confident in their choices, and better able to move through uncertainty without losing themselves. If you’re considering therapy, I offer a free consultation to talk through what you’re looking for and see if we’re a good fit.

Dealing with persistent relational stress? Do you struggle with poor communication patterns? Are you suffering with unmet needs? Do you make others a priority over your own needs and desires? Do you wonder how your life could be better somehow? Happier? More connected with your partner? Many people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and discouraged in their personal lives. They are uncertain about how to deal with their relationships, careers and issues in their lives. Pushing away what you need and want to make others happy isn't the answer and can lead to long term problems for your mind, body and spirit. Reducing relational distress becomes more managable when you know the right tools for healthy communication. We start counseling exactly where you are at and deal with what issues you would like to bring into our sessions. You will find that working with me through various counseling methods will provide you a better and more productive way to handle negative communication patterns that are overwhelming you. I can help you understand what is keeping you stuck and help you get "unstuck". Together we can discover the best path to help you reach your goals and if I can't help you, I'll find someone who can. I work with clients who are open, ready, willing and motivated to deal with issues that are keeping them stuck. As we work together collaboratively, you will learn healthier ways to communicate and deescalate negative cycles that you are stuck in. . My clients appreciate the safe, comfortable environment that is created as you learn new skills. You will improve emotional connection, learn to reconnect after a rupture and repair your relationship.

If your child is having frequent meltdowns, struggling to listen, or seems overwhelmed by big emotions, it can feel exhausting trying to figure out how to help, when nothing you try seems to fully work. I specialize in child-centered play therapy, which allows children to express and process what they are feeling in a way that matches their developmental level, through play. Many of the children I work with are dealing with anxiety, behavioral challenges, emotional outbursts, or difficulty adjusting to changes at home or school. In our sessions, your child has a safe, consistent space to work through what is going on internally, while I help you better understand their behavior and feel more confident in how to respond at home. I support parents throughout the process so you feel more equipped, less overwhelmed, and not left guessing. My goal is to help your child feel more regulated and understood, and to help you feel more connected and confident as a parent.

I bring over 15 years of clinical experience working with adults and adolescents experiencing depression, anxiety, anger dyscontrol, and other emotional and behavioral concerns. I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach that helps clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and develop practical strategies for making meaningful changes. My approach combines clinical expertise and research with humor, common sense, and a practical understanding of the challenges people face in their everyday lives. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths, better understand the obstacles that may be holding them back, and develop effective tools for managing difficult emotions, improving relationships, and creating lasting change.

Your struggles are unique and complex. As a psychologist my aim is to help you explore your personal narratives, to understand how your past is affecting your present and keeping you from fulfilling your values. Whether you are experiencing difficulty with relationships, life events, healing from trauma, or simply don't find yourself enjoying your life as you once did, I will help you feel grounded while we gain a non-judgmental perspective on your struggles and put our minds together to strategize ways forward. I specialize in treatments for trauma, depression, anxiety, job stress, and relationship issues. I take a pragmatic and eclectic approach by integrating psychodynamic theories with evidence-based tools. I draw on treatments ranging from CBT, ACT, and CPT, tailoring treatment to your unique needs and experiences. I completed advanced training at Haverford College and the Dept. of Veteran Affairs Hospital where I continue to work as a trauma specialist.
