Supervisor, Educator & Consultant

Hi, I’m Nick. I am the Director and co-owner operator of the practice. While, I do not see clients for therapy anymore, I am beyond proud to lead and mentor the team of folks we have here at Modern Path.

I blend my lived, clinical, and administrative experiences as I guide the organization and select external projects that are meaningful to me which I believe will take us to new levels as individuals, a team, and a business.

My career has spanned 25 years in community behavioral health, administrative oversight, and private practice. Where I have been is not as important as where I am. What’s most important is that I am here; a middle aged, neurodivergent trans man with chronic depression and PTSD who has professional and personal knowledge and experiences that span a life time. I have the honor of having touched more lives than I can count over the span of my career. At a micro level thousands and at a policy and systemic level hundreds of thousands, possibly even more.

I take great pride in supervising other queer and neurodivergent clinicians who often have challenges finding their place in this industry (much like I did), providing them an opportunity to develop clinically and ethically while living authentically.

My current focus for the practice is to develop and strengthen our clinical team, expand our continuing education, community education, and coaching services with a focus on the needs of those who live and love outside of the labels and constructs placed on us by the social narratives of individualism, capitalism and systemic oppression.

I volunteer as the Chairperson of the AASECT Ethics Advisory Committee and at the pleasure of the Board of Directors, hold a seat on the American Association of Somatic Sexologists Advisory Board. In my personal life, I am and always will be a parent, a Leatherman, and an anarchistic punk. I am blessed with amazing partners and a wife who have been along on this journey with me, holding me in love and compassion no matter what has come our way. I have a grown child who is also in healthcare and makes Dad proud every day.

If you have questions about supervision, consultation, training, or working on a project together send me a message and let’s see if we can make it work.

My current fee structure is:

$250 per clinical hour for supervision/consultation and $150 per two hour group. I also maintain two supervision slots for free supervision for under represented individuals in our profession. While these slots are currently filled, I expect both to be open on or around January 2024.
