For several years Max devoted his time to Outdoor Recreation and enjoyed bringing others into nature. With time Max realized he wanted to blend the two worlds of nature and mental health, which led him to Springfield College, where he completed his MSW.

Taking what he gained in the outdoor industry, he began his journey into social work. Max has a creative and out of the box approach to strength-based therapy working from CBT and DBT modalities. He has experience working with individuals with diverse learning disabilities and ADHD. He enjoys helping his clients reframe their mind to their relationship with their diagnosis.

During Max’s first year as a Social Work Student, he completed his hours in an outpatient clinic where he practiced therapy with a wide variety of individuals in the Chicopee area. For his second year he was one of APP’s first interns. Max has signed on as a clinician with APP to start his career.
