Welcome! I am Kyle.
I strive to collaborate with you in providing psychotherapy where you feel safe, heard, and free to express yourself without judgement. As a therapist, I have worked in multiple clinical settings in-person and/or virtually that focused on providing therapy to those with LGBTQ and BIPOC communities.
I can be particularly helpful in helping you develop more self-acceptance, more insight, and teach you different tools to support your mental health and well-being. Additionally, I am trained in Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, CBT, and couples/relationship therapy for couples and polycules. Let’s collaborate to find what works best for you.
My specialties include but are not limited to supporting those experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief/loss, chronic pain, racial trauma, complex PTSD, relational/family stress, life transition, body image issues, relationship issues.
My Approach to Treatment
1. Engagement phase:
We discuss boundaries, confidentiality, informed consent, and risk of treatment.
2. Assessment phase:
We gather more information about you and what brings you in so that we can figure out how I can best help you.
3. Planning/intervention phase:
We work together to plan and make sure treatment goes the way you want it to go.
4. Evaluation/Termination phase:
We check-in to see if therapy is going the way you want it to go or if you need something else in therapy. Typically I will check-in about our work together throughout treatment.
The last three phases can be interchangeable throughout treatment and have no fixed time limit.
These methods are influenced by the helping process.
