About Me

I am an enthusiastic therapist with a passion for helping others. I started my journey in human services at Stony Brook University, where I earned a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Sociology. While in undergrad, I was offered a position as a direct care person in a group home supporting adults with developmental and psychiatric diagnoses. It was at this job that I cultivated my passion for helping, and during the years following graduation, throughout a few different positions for a few different agencies, I decided to go back to school to pursue a career in Social Work. I went on to graduate from Fordham University’s Graduate School of Social Service.

By the time I graduated from Fordham University as a Master of Social Work, I had just shy of 10 years of experience in different capacities, providing individualized care to people of all ages, backgrounds, upbringings, socioeconomic status’, orientations, etc. which has shaped me as a therapist. I continue to work with diverse populations while maintaining an open, judgement free, safe space for anyone that steps in through the office doors, or logs on for a virtual visit. As an open and proud gay man, I want to provide a welcoming space for all, extending my services to all members of the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as all Poly and ENM folx seeking individual, partner(s), and/or family counseling services.

I invite you to give back to yourself, take care of your mind, show yourself some love. I look forward to meeting with you.
