Meet Kyle
Kyle works with adults who have a really strong inner critic, the kind that makes it hard to offer yourself any compassion, even when you'd offer it to anyone else in your position. Many of his clients are anxious, burnt out, or under so much stress they feel overwhelmed and unsure how to move forward. They often find themselves doing everything they can to change, only to end up back in the same spot. Kyle's approach comes from understanding how early experiences and past adversity shape how you see yourself, connect with others, and move through the world, and that making sense of those patterns can support real, lasting change. As a queer therapist who grew up in a rural community with limited diversity and representation, he developed an early appreciation for belonging, authenticity, and creating spaces where people feel genuinely seen and accepted. Kyle brings that same energy into the room today, helping clients break cycles they can't quite explain and finally understand what's underneath them.
Sessions with Kyle move at whatever pace feels right for you. He pays as much attention to what's happening in your body as what's on your mind, since a lot of what we carry doesn't show up in words first. If you're feeling overwhelmed, he might invite you to slow down and notice what's underneath: a tightness in your chest, a knot in your stomach, before untangling it further. He often talks about the different "parts" of us, some louder than others, and helps you get curious about whichever one is asking for attention instead of pushing it aside. Nothing happens without your buy-in: if something feels like too much, that's information Kyle works with, not something to push past. You'll likely leave a session with Kyle feeling deeply seen and understood, more connected to yourself, and hopeful about what's next.
Outside of therapy, Kyle is a creative at heart, drawn to musical theatre, museums, and documentary films from around the world. Much of his free time goes into his garden or his kitchen, tending his plants and trying new recipes for family and friends, both of which help him slow down and stay present. He's also an avid gamer and loves to travel somewhere new every year. Above all, he values quality time with the people he loves, including his family, friends, and his seven-year-old Pomeranian-husky, Meeko, who keeps life entertaining every day.
