Sliding Scale
A sliding scale is a range of out of pocket fees that providers accept based on financial need.
Licensed in
Therapy licenses aren't like driver's licenses — each state has its own set of rules. To offer care, a provider needs to be licensed in the state you're located in when sessions are happening.

“I have always been interested in behavior and motivation and noticed the lack of folks who look like me, a Black man.”
What was your path to becoming a therapist?
While I have been interested in psychology for years, I took a somewhat circuitous route, working in various types of retail until a longer career in higher academia led to counseling. I have always been interested in behavior and motivation and noticed the lack of folks who look like me, a Black man. I have provided counseling in universities, lower level schools, and clinics. These experiences bolstered my feeling that more marginalized counselors are a necessity in this field.
What should someone know about working with you?
As a counselor, I am more focused on the symptoms a client is experiencing instead of defining them by a diagnosis; each person is unique no matter how much they fit a criteria.
