My approach to therapy is client centered, collaborative, empowerment oriented, and evidence based. I am intentional about providing space for curiosity and not judgement. I am a harm reduction-oriented therapist who has been trained in Integrated Harm Reduction Psychotherapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mentalization Based Therapy, Community Reinforcement and Family Training and various other contextual and person-centered based modalities.

My life's work is about curating a safe and welcoming environment for marginalized people; people who have been marginalized by the stigma of mental illness, addictions, various behaviors deemed as high-risk, race, sex and different political realities. I am committed to using the field of mental health and psychology to uplift social justice causes and actions to promote liberation for my clients. I have worked with people who use substances and who suffer from various different comorbidities including medical and psychiatric most of my career. Most importantly, I am here to help my clients feel seen and empowered to move to a place of self-efficacy.

When I am not working as a psychotherapist and business owner I enjoy physical activities like running, hiking and strength training. I love watching sports, experiencing art and listening to music, especially live music. I am lucky enough to share my life with my wife and our children.
