About
Blaine
Hello, I'm Blaine! I believe the foundation for a good experience in therapy starts in building a positive and trusting therapeutic relationship. I enjoy working with clients to help get to the root of their difficulties and effect change as rapidly and safely as possible. I also strive for intercultural competency and have an awareness of intersectionality and how this can complicate feelings of relatedness and belonging. I get a lot of satisfaction from helping clients find what feels most important and we start there. No homework required!
When not seeing clients I enjoy spending time playing a few sports, seeking inspirational art, cooking, and laughing with my daughters.
