Who Comes to See Me

Gay men at any point in the story — newly out, out for decades, or somewhere in the middle.

Queer people working out identity, desire, and what living honestly actually looks.

People in open, non-monogamous, and poly relationships.

People in kink communities.

People who are at a crossroads and deciding where to head next —whether that’s career changers, empty nesters, retirees, or dealing with loss and grief.

Who You’d Be Working With

I grew up in Southern California. I'm a gay man, and I'm part of the communities I work with. My husband and I first moved to San Francisco in 2007.

I went to Stanford for undergrad, graduating with a broad, multidisciplinary liberal arts degree in American Studies. I've had a lot of jobs and more than one career, which is part of why I understand change from the inside. I came to this work the long way around — retailers and dot-coms in the late nineties, then a decade in public service and a master's in public administration from USC in the early 2000s, and finally the pivot to therapy and a master's in counseling psychology from Golden Gate University in 2022.

These days I work with clients across California by telehealth.
