About me

I began practicing polyamory in 2013 while studying psychology -- and what a lot of practice it took! Through trial-and-error in my earliest explorations, I also began reading polyamorous books, forums, and writings from other nonmonogamous relationship-exploring folks to help make sense of my journey as a polyamorous man. Now, I focus on relationship therapy tailored to people and relationships that are nontraditional, exploratory, nonmonogamous, or polyamorous. This way, I can be the support for others that I wanted while I was on this path of self-discovery, exploration, breaking from expectations and tradition, and finding my own ideal lovestyle. I also have experience working with adults, children, and families in various therapeutic roles. Since 2024, I have been working as an individual and couple's counselor offering private sessions. Previously, I taught at a preschool and collaborated with students' families in largely low-income neighborhoods. I worked outpatient as a therapy aide for families with children and adolescents in crisis through a psychiatric hospital. I led at a summer camp as a counselor and program director for several years. I have several years working in ABA with children and young adults with autism and related developmental disorders. All of these diverse experiences have shaped and enriched my perspective as a clinician in ways that I never expected when setting out to practice as a psychologist.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Holistic approachRecommended for those who want to address their mental health through a balanced focus on mind, body, and spirit.
Nonviolent CommunicationRecommended for those who want to improve communication and to regulate conflicts by learning how to express their feelings and needs and listening to other’s.
Person-centered approachRecommended for those looking for a supportive, non-judgmental space where they can lead the conversation and explore their feelings at their own pace.
Above all, I spend all sessions actively and carefully listening with empathy, seeking to understand as deeply as possible what you are bringing to the session. I seek to make you feel heard and fully understood as we work together to understand and achieve whatever it is that brings you to therapy. The first 1 or 2 sessions are for me to get to know you and your struggles better and for us to clarify together your goals and our plans in therapy. I approach sessions with a warm, open, conversational tone. My role as a therapist is to facilitate clarity, understanding, and change based on your unique needs, wants, and situation in life. I borrow techniques from CBT and Gestalt when appropriate, but the main focus of my sessions is to collaborate in a discussion about what is happening in order to make sense of your feelings and what you can do to improve your experience of life.
