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.
