I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Rutgers University. I have well over a decade of experience in the mental health field. Most importantly, I’m also a real person. I love sports, but at times probably care too much about the Giants beating the Cowboys. I like to think I have a good sense of humor, but sometimes my jokes aren’t as funny as I think they are. I can sound professional but I also swear. I’m far from perfect, and I’m still trying to figure out life one day at a time just like you.

I got into this field because I wanted to be the person I needed when I was younger. As a young man, I heard all the same messages about masculinity and manhood. So I turned everything inward. Through my own experiences both professionally and personally, I’ve grown to learn that we all need a space to let things out and work through all the bullshit. I couldn’t do it alone; none of us can. That’s the energy I bring to my work. You are not alone because I’m here too and we can work through it together.
