I am a Black/Latinx, Queer Eclectic therapist, I approach therapy from a client-centered, trauma-informed, multicultural, and holistic lens. I believe in empowering clients to see, utilize, and grow their capacity, and ability to face new challenges. I work with all age groups, I am LGBTQIA-affirming and minority centered. My passion is working with clients who are navigating personal challenges around trauma, identity, sexuality, toxic stress, addiction, and neurodivergence. My other passion is to work with other clinicians in the field who need space to vent, share experiences, and acknowledge their challenges.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session, you can expect us to discuss what brings you to therapy. I will ask about your experience with mental health and explore your comfort level with talking about difficult topics. I often check in with my clients about any mood changes during sessions. I try to get as much history as possible to understand the entirety of the person in front of me (not just the issues presented). This helps me form a clear understanding of your experience and helps me to remain curious and informed in this uncomfortable, but therapeutic dynamic.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My strength as a provider is to take the issue apart and look at each piece separately. I often look to understand the nature of the issue. I believe in the therapeutic alliance and value my clients for showing up because therapy is difficult, messy, and sometimes unbearable. I value the trust that my clients can offer, and I remain vulnerable with them to respect the relationship that we are working to develop. This relationship is what helps in treatment, not so much the credentials. I believe in my client's ability to achieve goals, improve their self-image, find value in themselves, and explore new opportunities for growth. As an eclectic/integrative therapist, there is more flexibility in deciding how to tackle issues and collaborate around treatment goals for each individual.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I enjoy working with clients open to exploring vulnerable feelings and considering different perspectives. As a Queer Black/Latinx therapist, I am inclined to work with LGBTQ+, minority, and clients who struggle with feeling overwhelmed, distracted or hopeless. I enjoy working with clients who have mood and personality disorders because it is a chance for an improved relationship with themselves, to discuss challenges and ways to understand their mental health and to reach goals that align with their emotional and mental health needs. LGBT+ (including DL), Black and Brown folx, BIPOC, Spanish-speaking clients, Clients with addiction/substance abuse, Neurodivergent clients, and justice-involved clients.

I’ve only done therapy with Kye for a month and it definitely has been impactful for me. He truly listens to understand, not just to respond. I feel like he has helped me with challenging my way of thinking. His insight during our sessions is very helpful and provides me with new perspectives I did not think about before or did not think were possible. I highly recommend him.

I've only had a few sessions so far and can already tell that Kye is an excellent therapist. As someone who has had dozens of counselors over 15+ years, it is a rare blessing to find someone whose mere presence is calming, who can quickly and intelligently articulate their points, suggestions, or analyses with the utmost professionalism and care. Thanks to Kye, I realized I have OCD, and with their guidance have already taken important steps to improve and manage difficult life-long symptoms.
