My Approach

As a bisexual man, my adolescence almost felt like two puberties back-to-back. When I first got feelings for another man, I was suddenly faced with a whole new set of questions about my identity, my values, my relationships, and what I wanted for my future. Through those teenage years, I wished I had someone to talk to, someone who had also worked through those fundamental, existential questions. Eventually, I was blessed to find the mentors I needed, and now I want to pass along that wisdom. I know what it’s like to wonder who you are and what your place in life is, and I want to help others grappling with that uncertainty. No matter what is holding someone back, I want to be there next to them, encouraging them to take ownership of their life, their values, and their strengths.

Take your next step toward growth.
