ABOUT ME

I enjoy working with individuals who are navigating their journey through the gender spectrum.  I have over 10 years experience working with trans communities in Washington DC.  The individuals I work with identify along the gender spectrum and in diverse ways including gender queer, gender non-conforming, non-binary and transgender.  As a therapist who is also a transgender man, I provide a unique and authentic level of understanding and compassion.  

​

In addition, I specialize in helping my clients cope and heal from grief, loss, and trauma through trauma-informed and evidence-based treatments. Whether you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, or family estrangement, our work together can help you learn new ways of growing personally and developing a greater emotional intelligence.
