Lifelong Passion for Empowering Change
The Journey Here
The Heart Behind the Work
I am originally from Alpena, MI, and part of my graduate program training involved developing an awareness of my privilege as a white, cisgender male. I’ve learned how important it is to be mindful of the ways in which this privilege shapes my perspective and interactions.
Healing Through Inclusivity
As a therapist, I strive to create a space where all clients feel heard, respected, and valued, regardless of their identity. This approach not only allows me to better understand and learn from my clients’ diverse experiences, but also helps me advocate for inclusivity and equity, both in and outside of the therapy space. Furthermore, it is fulfilling to provide a consistent, positive presence in my clients’ lives.
Embracing Authenticity and Connection
My friends/ family would laugh at me for this but I would say Shrek is my favorite movie. There are layers to it and I think it reflects important messages—friendship, self-acceptance, compassion, and courage. Also, it’s hilarious!
Beyond the Therapy Room
During my downtime, I enjoy watching sports and movies. (Especially Shrek!) I also place a priority on spending time with friends and family, and taking care of my pets!
