Overview
It is so good to get to connect!
Often it is hard to open up for fear that if someone saw us as we truly are, they would reject us, and that in turn, would be worse. In therapy, my goal is to meet you where you are at, and help YOU feel empowered to be your authentic self without shame.
I am a licensed social worker originally from Kansas. I received my masters of social work in 2022. It took me a long time to come to terms with my own identity as a queer trans man and reprocessing my own upbringing. I am very honored to be a support for anyone seeking to heal from religious trauma/spiritual abuse, has felt out of place, or othered.
Throughout my career I worked in many different settings including medical, crisis centers, foster care, case management, and minority political advocacy. All of these settings have informed my practice to see the best in my clients regardless of what society may say.
I utilize IFS, DBT, Strengths Based, Solution Focused, Narrative, and Poly-vagal theory.
