As a therapist, Aaron draws from a variety of strengths-based approaches that range from social and emotional skill-building to deep explorations of identity and purpose. Prior to working as a therapist, Aaron has worked as a school counselor, elementary and middle school teacher, and summer camp administrator. These positions have allowed Aaron to create a therapeutic space that is active, fun, and characterized by positive and collaborative energy.

In addition to his clinical work, Aaron has conducted research on help-seeking behavior, studied neuroscience, and designed curriculum for group therapy and social and emotional learning (SEL). He has also written about the relationships between mental health, physical activity, and the outdoors. Outside of the therapy office, Aaron enjoys endurance sports, playing the guitar and mandolin, board games, reading, and spending time with his spouse, son, and dog.
