About Isaac
Isaac chose counseling because he was once a young closeted kid that felt incredibly lonely, anxious, and lost. In wanting to heal and grow, it was important for him to find the answers for kids like him and families like his, so that they could all experience the true connection and utter satisfaction he so deeply craved. It was with this motivation that iAmClinic was born. Before iAmClinic and completing his graduate studies, he spent time working in Child Protection and served as a project supervisor for a counseling program in the nonprofit world. He also worked in the main operating room at The Children’s Hospital.
As a professional counselor, he used the techniques and insights given to the field of talk therapy by seminal authors/researchers like Pia Mellody, Terrence Real, Peter Levine, and Bessel Van Der Kulk. He interweaves research-based modalities like Neurofeedback, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and Somatic Experiencing, as well as empirically-based theories such as Attachment Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Feminist Theory, into his practice. Isaac has also spent many years working with addictions and substance abuse. As he stepped out of the closet with anxiety, depression, and many unwanted behavioral patterns, he saw my healing journey as personally necessary and professionally worth it. I not only wanted to talk the talk but also walk the walk. And as a clinician, he believes it is essential to be equipped with the knowledge, treatment interventions, and skills to be effective in all facets of his client’s life so that he can offer the healing that changed his life to others. He believes in therapy, not because he has read many books but because he is one major success story. When clients leave his office for the last time, he wants them to feel the same liberty, connectedness, and internal peace therapy helped him discover.
