Hi! I have spent my entire career working with college students - starting initially on a college campus, then to a group practice near UC Davis, and now in my own private practice. I am currently only offering telehealth services and I am licensed in California, Florida, and Ontario Canada. I love supporting young adults and adults during such a pivotal time of life; as they navigate the transition to college, the unique challenges that come with being a college student/young adult, and the...

You and your life isn’t one note. You are multifaceted and the demands you face happen to be as well – particularly when you are a student. Currently, the sound-track of your life has moved away from the sounds of a harmonious symphony -or maybe from an upbeat pop song- to something more unnerving and stressful (like the alarm you use to wake up to in the morning or the background music in a horror film—building tension, bracing yourself from some known or unknown threat). It makes sense that li...

You’re tired of pretending to be someone you’re not just to get through the day. You feel like no one truly understands you—and even when you try to explain, it comes out wrong. You're exhausted from masking, from analyzing every social interaction, from trying to "pass" in a world that wasn't built for your brain. Deep down, you wonder if being your full self means being alone forever. If you're neurodivergent, late-diagnosed, or navigating life with BPD, you deserve a space where you don’t hav...

I’m also a pretty decent listener, and the guy who’ll gently call you out when you’re being your own worst enemy (with Southern Grace, of course). I take a no-nonsense, client-centered approach to therapy—mea...
