Hi there, I'm Branden!

If you're here, you've already taken a courageous step. I bring experience supporting individuals of all ages navigating depression, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, Autism, trauma, technology-related stress, medical concerns, and abuse. My approach is direct yet compassionate, collaborative, and adaptive to your unique needs.

My focus

I create a welcoming, affirming space for everyone, especially LGBTQ+ individuals and those in geek culture—gaming, fandoms, tech, or feeling outside the mainstream. I have extensive experience with diverse cultural, economic, and ethnic backgrounds, and with families navigating chronic illness and end-of-life decisions.

My approach

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. I integrate solution-focused and strength-based approaches with cognitive behavioral therapy and practical skill-building to address your specific concerns. Our work together will be tailored to your goals and your pace.
