Therapist

Above all, I want my clients to know that my priority is to create a space where they feel safe being fully and authentically themselves. As a gay man, I understand the importance of having spaces where identity does not need to be explained, defended, or minimized, and I hope to create that sense of safety for each of my clients. I welcome LGBTQ+ adults and young adults, and I offer affirming therapy where who you are is the starting point, not something you have to justify.

Professionally, I am a Miami-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker offering telehealth therapy to clients across Florida. I completed my Bachelor of Social Work in Indianapolis and my Master of Social Work in Miami. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with people navigating some of life's most difficult moments.

My experience includes providing therapeutic services within a homeless shelter's substance use treatment program, as well as working in an inpatient hospital setting. I have supported individuals through addiction and substance use recovery, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, medical crises, and major life transitions. I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), harm reduction, solution-focused brief therapy, and positive psychology, and I tailor my approach to what actually fits your life and goals. I am no stranger to difficult conversations, and I want my clients to know that no thought or feeling is unwelcome in our therapeutic space.

Every individual, regardless of background, identity, or lived experience, is welcome in my practice. Whether you are working through recovery, grieving a loss, managing anxiety or depression, or facing a major life change, I would be glad to support you.

I look forward to meeting you!

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Hialeah

Finding LGBTQIA therapists in Hialeah starts with identity-affirming care. Look for a therapist who clearly lists experience supporting LGBTQIA+ people, including concerns related to gender identity, sexual identity, family relationships, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Training in affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or World Professional Association for Transgender Health-informed care can signal a closer fit. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their approach, who they support, and what you may expect in sessions.

Hialeah has local therapy options, and the number of LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may vary by schedule, specialty, and location. Virtual appointments can expand your search beyond nearby offices while keeping care accessible from home. As you compare LGBTQ friendly therapists in Hialeah, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. For some people, therapist background, identity, language, or lived experience may also matter. Reading profiles before booking can help you find a therapist who directly names LGBTQIA+ populations and describes a communication style that fits your needs.

Therapy in Hialeah can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before booking. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Hialeah, FL, who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check insurance fit, and see estimated costs upfront, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to book when you are.
