Hi, I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner who believes everyone deserves to feel heard, supported, and treated with kindness. I create a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, mood changes, and other mental health concerns. Along with medication management, I also use supportive therapy techniques, including CBT and motivational interviewing, to help clients build healthy coping skills and feel more confident in their daily lives.

I work with individuals and couples navigating identity, belonging, and relationships—especially within LGBTQIA+, kink/leather, sex-work, and consensual non-monogamy communities. As a queer, kinky, poly Black man, I bring lived experience and cultural awareness into the therapy room, alongside clinical training. I often support clients who have felt like outsiders due to race, queerness, trauma, or relationship structure, and who want a space where they don’t have to explain or shrink themselves. I became a therapist out of a deep curiosity about people and a belief in the power of being truly seen, understood, and supported in creating meaningful change. My goal is to offer an affirming, nonjudgmental space where authenticity is welcomed and complexity is held with care.

I am a board certified, doctoral prepared PMHNP. I completed my post graduate at National University in Adult, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I earned my DNP from Azusa Pacific University and graduated from CSUSB MSN program. I have been a faculty at CSUSB since 2014. Extensively trained and a certified Trauma-Informed specialist. I diagnose and treat mental disorders including medication-assisted treatment along with counseling for chemical dependency and substance use disorders.

As an existential psychologist, I have had the privilege of working with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, relational challenges, and trauma. I believe the foundation of meaningful therapy is built on trust, rapport, and genuine curiosity. How one approaches their life is the key to functionality. Together, we explore your experiences and embark on a journey to discover what truly works for you.

I earned my Doctorate from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I hold a Master’s degree in Applied Psychology from New York University and a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Houston. My training includes experience in hospitals, residential treatment centers, colleges, substance use treatment programs, the Department of Child and Family Services, and private practice.

I particularly enjoy working with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds and those drawn to creative pursuits. Culture and creativity often influence how we experience meaning, identity, and belonging, and I welcome these perspectives as an important part of the therapeutic process.

I’ve helped people work through trauma, burnout, ADHD, Bipolar mood concerns, Anxiety, Depression, OCD, and others, in ways that honor their pace and their story. Our work together is grounded in honesty, humor, and compassion.

As a therapist in Fresno and online in CA, I help people whose minds and bodies are tired of being on high alert. You might notice every possible threat around you, feel constantly on edge, or struggle to relax even in moments that should feel safe. You may carry guilt or shame from the ways you react when overwhelmed.

As therapy continues, you begin to notice small but real shifts. The mornings feel a bit lighter. You catch yourself laughing without effort. You start to sleep better. You find it easier to connect with family or friends, to be present, to breathe. These small moments build into something bigger

— a sense of belonging in your own life again.
