DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION, & BELONGING

I believe that therapy should be a space where people feel seen, respected, and genuinely safe, not just tolerated. I work intentionally to create an environment that affirms people of all identities, especially those who are too often misunderstood, ignored, or harmed by dominant systems and culture.

I am a cisgender, queer, white, able-bodied man who acknowledges the privilege and responsibility that comes with that. My commitment is to continually learn, reflect, and show up in ways that center dignity, equity, and care for people who have been marginalized, oppressed, or erased.

This practice is explicitly affirming of:

• LGBTQIA+ identities, including trans, non-binary, gender-expansive and neurodivergent folks

• People of all bodies, races, ethnicities, and cultural backgrounds

• Survivors of trauma and folks with complex experiences

• People who carry multiple, intersecting identities

• Those whose identities are politicized, stigmatized, or challenged in the world
