I’m a Professional Counselor Associate registered with the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists (OBLPCT).
I’m also a National Certified Counselor with the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC).
I recently became a member of AASECT, the American Association for Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists.
As a pre-licensed clinician, I am being supervised by Sofia Jasani, MS, LPC, NCC and Karlaina Brooke, PsyD.
My name is Gary (he/him). I’m a mental health counselor who partners with LGBTQIA+ adults to help them live authentic and fulfilling sexual, spiritual, and relational lives.
As therapist and client, we lean into rather than shy away from difficult topics and conversations. Some areas of clinical interest include:
LGBTQIA+ issues
Sexual and gender identity, orientation, and expression
Sexual concerns and “dysfunctions”
Relationship issues
Financial stress and money-related values conflicts
Religious trauma
Unpacking purity culture
Faith or spiritual growth and (re)engagement
