About me
I am a mature G in LGBTQ+ list of ways some of us can identify. I am credentialed as a marriage and family therapist which means I view individuals issues through a relationship lens. By that I mean I'm interested in what is working &/or needs tweaking in relationships we have with others--boy friends/husbands, girl friends/wives, etc.
My practice is online &/or on a cell phone. Having been a client I can relate that there is no magic bullet in therapy. If I think you need affirmation, I can be affirming. If I think you need confrontation, I can be confrontative--not mean, just real. Whether you are ready to move forward on any or all of what we discuss is up to you. I have trained in a variety of approaches and prefer to take adopt an approach that matches a clients goal in coming to therapy. The clients should plan on attending a minimum of 6-8 sessions, with ongoing assessment of progress at the close of each session.
