I know what you're probably thinking: "Online LGBTQ Counseling? Yeah, right!"
I'll bet that past therapy you've had has felt like a bunch of crap and a total waste of time, right? So many clients tell me about their negative experiences with past therapists, who "just listened" and "didn't really show me how to make anything better." Well, I don't play that game (you are paying for services, after all, right?). I want you to feel you've actually gotten useful skills to improve your situation. I often work with clients with a range of problems and concerns, although I specialize in work with the LGBTQ+ community. I have extensive experience in individual therapy, couples therapy and group therapy.
Fact vs Fiction
Is Talk Therapy Effective?
If you've never before been in therapy, you might have some preconceptions about what actually happens in therapy. I think for many people, hearing that word "therapy" conjures mental images of lying on a couch several times per week for years on end, telling a therapist about one's deepest, darkest secrets, dreams and fantasies. But what is it really like? And really, does therapy work?

Mediumship
Mediumship has existed since ancient times but began being scientifically studied during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. More recently, scientists began studying mediumship phenomena with greater interest and have found some scientific support for the authenticity of mediums’ practices. Research by Gary Schwartz, PhD, Julie Beischel, PhD, and others suggests that mediumship may serve as a potentially useful adjunct to individuals receiving grief therapy.
"Through my work with Brian, I noticed that he brought exceptional concern and care in treating clients. He also has a strong ability to be both honest and direct, while simultaneously being warm and inviting. He even brings great humor to any situation."
