A note from Brian

Welcome! My name is Brian and I have experience working with clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBTQ+ issues, relationship difficulties and general life stressors. I have worked with a diverse range of clients including teens, adolescents, adults and older adults. I believe every individual has the capacity for growth and healing in pursuit of the best version of themselves. By integrating cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and strengths based approaches, I help empower clients to develop healthy coping patterns, enhance self-awareness and cultivate a positive outlook on life.
