I write what I have come to understand about emotional regulation and relational skills. In these posts, I concisely describe the approaches I use as a therapist and the reasoning behind them. I do this so the direction of my sessions with clients becomes clearer and more effective. And, for those willing to read about my process, I hope you find insights that support your own growth and healing.

Social Justice Statement
Physically, psychologically, and systemically destroying someone's livelihood (especially without even knowing them) is an aggressive and extremely harmful move. I passionately stand up against this type of hate that is directed at all marginalized communities.
I think there is a resilient and energetic pride in all marginalized communities, and yet I want to speak to the pride within the LGBTQ+ community for a moment.
I feel so incredibly safe in my own skin at your pride events every year. A safety I so rarely feel. You’ve given me a meaningful life lesson that’s important for all my clients to learn: I’m allowed to accept, claim, and love my own, unique self in the loudest, proudest, and most confident ways (even when people who don't even know me judge and hate me).
To all marginalized communities, thank you for being all that you are in the face of all that is trying to stifle you. You, as a unique individual, and your culture as a whole are both so valuable. As a white, heterosexual, cisgender man in the United States, I stand with you and always will.
