“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”
— Brené Brown

JT is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a master’s in clinical mental health counseling from DePaul University. Known for his warmth, humor, and deep intuition, JT feels like the guy you’ve always known. With a background in journalism, he excels at asking thoughtful questions, listening deeply, and considering all perspectives.

We’re wired for connection — but relationships can be messy and complex. That’s where JT steps in. He helps individuals and couples untangle the dynamics of love, identity, and belonging so they can show up more fully in life and relationships. JT works with clients at pivotal moments: navigating modern dating, facing relationship ultimatums, processing separation or divorce, and finding stability in life transitions. He helps those struggling with trust, communication, or disconnection slow down, get curious, and practice emotional attunement.

Using a psychodynamic approach, JT goes beyond surface behaviors to uncover emotional patterns and past experiences shaping relationships. Sessions are designed to feel like a dynamic, thoughtful conversation rather than a clinical exercise. Together, clients and JT explore what’s driving their choices and how past experiences influence their present connections.

Relationships aren’t just about finding the right person — they’re about knowing oneself with others. JT’s mission is to help clients move from feeling misunderstood and disconnected to feeling seen, heard, and understood. By taking a closer look at what’s holding them back, JT guides clients in discovering new dimensions of connection, both with themselves and the people who matter most. He welcomes people from all walks of life, embracing diversity in background, identity, and experience.

A special note to men struggling with loneliness: JT sees you and is here to help. And to women or non-binary folks reluctant to see a cis male therapist — JT graciously welcomes you to take a chance on him.
