My background
I'm a licensed psychotherapist practicing at Rouse Relational Wellness. I've worked in the mental health field since 2014 in a variety of roles: as a clinical researcher, as a clinician in community mental health clinics, and now in private practice.
My clinical perspective draws together psychoanalytic thought, broader schools of therapeutic theory, and contemporary empirical evidence on topics including emotion regulation, masculine identity and emotional expressiveness, sexuality and gender expression, and relational attachment. Across these disciplines, one constant has stood out: meaningful change happens within a genuine, engaged human relationship, not by reducing someone to a checklist of symptoms.
My practice includes people from all walks of life, from tradespeople and service industry workers to artists, writers, healthcare workers, attorneys, academics, and tech professionals.
Outside the consulting room, beekeeping, literature, physical fitness, and time in the wilderness keep me grounded in my own life.
