Clinical and Professional History

For thirty years, my work has focused on the intersection of lived experience and professional practice. As a gay-identified psychologist, husband, and adoptive father, I provide deep insight into the unique complexities facing gay, bisexual, and questioning men. My career has been defined by leadership across diverse clinical and organizational settings in California, dedicated to fostering healing, growth, and opportunity. I combine this extensive history of service and expertise to help you navigate life transitions and your mental health journey, strengthening your inner resilience while helping you find a true sense of belonging in every aspect of your life.

Guiding the Way

I view our time together as a collaborative journey toward your most authentic self. My philosophy is straightforward: we work side-by-side to understand your world without resorting to complex clinical jargon. By focusing on your daily experiences as a gay, bisexual, or questioning man, I help you overcome past hurdles and begin building the meaningful future you deserve. This partnership is built on a foundation of deep respect for your personal history and your unique individual strengths.

My objective is to help you live a life that feels honest and deeply connected to those around you. Together, we will examine what is holding you back and identify practical, compassionate ways to move forward. This process involves much more than simply solving problems; it is about helping you cultivate a genuine sense of peace and belonging. Whether you seek healthier relationships or a stronger sense of self, I am here to support you at every step.

Let’s Connect Today

Finding the right support should be a clear and comfortable process. I invite gay, bisexual, and questioning men throughout California to a brief 15–20 minute video consultation. It is a no-pressure opportunity to talk and determine if my approach is a good fit for your needs—not a formal therapy session.
