Meet Ernie!

Real change starts when you feel safe enough to explore what's holding you back. As a licensed mental health counselor specializing in helping adults and couples (18+) overcome anxiety, depression, panic, and trauma as well as identity, relationship, and attachment issues, I’m here to support you through life’s toughest moments. Whether you're facing overwhelming transitions, racing thoughts, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges, we’ll work together to unpack difficult emotions, break free from negative patterns, and build the confidence to navigate life’s ups and downs.
​
I’m deeply committed to creating a safe, affirming space—particularly for the LGBTQIA+ community—where you can feel seen, valued, and supported. With a sex-positive, inclusive approach, I’m here to guide you through diverse relationship dynamics and identity exploration. Whether you're navigating polyamory, non-monogamy, or simply wanting to improve intimacy, sex, and communication in your relationships, I meet you exactly where you are with warmth and openness.
​
In our work together, I’ll help you recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward a more authentic, fulfilling life. I believe lasting change happens when trust and connection form the foundation of our therapeutic relationship, allowing you the space to discover who you are and what you need to thrive. Looking forward to collaborating towards meaningful change!
