Hi, I’m Adam,

Your skillful guide on the road less traveled.

I work with queer, neurodivergent, highly sensitive, kinky, and sex-positive adults in monogamous or open relationships. I offer therapy for self-described freaks and geeks and nerds, proud queers and weirdos, pups and doms and subs and switches, swingers and people with a lot of love to give. For folks who feel too much and focus too little, and anyone who would rather be happy than whatever normal is.

Break trail with intention.

Ready for Therapy with Someone Who's Been There?

My work comes from lived experience, not just textbooks. I've navigated my own mental health and therapy journey as a neurodivergent, highly sensitive member of the queer community, and built a practice around people who don't fit the mainstream mold. I take a direct, active approach focused on skills building. We'll focus on changing what's happening in your life right now, not circling the same topics week after week.

I take an active, structured approach focused on your specific goals. Sessions center on identifying high-impact patterns, learning how to interrupt them in the moment, and practicing new responses that hold up under stress.

I'm direct, engaged, and collaborative. I offer clear feedback, concrete strategies, and course-corrections when something isn't working, while keeping the work grounded, respectful, and practical. Therapy is meant to move things forward, not orbit the same material week after week.
