As a former firefighter-paramedic and father, I bring unique perspectives to therapy that emphasize authenticity and resilience.I prioritize client confidentiality and autonomy, offering both in-person and HIPAA-compliant teletherapy sessions tailored to individual needs.

Report
Duncan helped me discover an emotional world that I didn't even know existed. At the beginning of my time with him, I was dissatisfied with many parts of my life, and I was unclear of the reasons why. Duncan helped me on a path of self discovery that helped me realize some of the root causes of my self-esteem and relationship issues, and we worked on tools I could use to navigate those in the future.
I've been to a few therapists before, and Duncan was the best by far. He was the first therapist I saw who seemed to really "get" what was going on with me below the surface. He
