Introduction

As an integrative therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals living with chronic illness, disability, and the emotional challenges that often accompany life's most significant transitions. I believe healing begins within a genuine, collaborative therapeutic relationship and tailor treatment by drawing from narrative, humanistic, and psychodynamic approaches to meet each client's unique needs. As a disabled single father, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to my work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I am passionate about helping clients navigate grief and loss, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, relationship challenges, and the complexities of family systems with compassion, curiosity, and respect for each person's unique story.
