About Sessions with Schuyler
Schuyler’s work is quite diverse. He provides guidance for working with negative body image, navigating difficult conversations, coming out processes (both LGBTQ+ related, and not), decision-making, building confidence and learning positive self-talk, managing and understanding emotions, unearthing and understanding one's own gender and sexuality, and more.
While Schuyler continues to aid a variety of people across many identities both in and out of the LGBTQ+ community, Schuyler has significant experience with trans and gender nonconforming folks working through topics such as building confidence and self-assuredness as a trans person, dealing with internalized transphobia and transphobic environments, navigating dysphoria alongside eating disorders and/or other mental illness, and more.
Schuyler also provides professional guidance, including career coaching and purpose-driven life-coaching.

Note: As both someone who struggled with an eating disorder, and now, recovered, works as Monte Nido & Affiliate’s National Fellow and as an adviser to Within Health, Schuyler has a great deal of experience working in the eating disorder recovery & treatment space, but is not a clinician. As such, sessions that deal with eating disorders or any other mental illness are still NOT therapy or clinical treatment, but rather a space to provide support and share similar experience.)

Testimonials
"Schuyler has this unique ability to challenge me (or my line of thinking) and empower me and emotionally and spiritually lift me up at the same time. I have so greatly appreciated the times when Schuyler has pushed me either in moments of self-growth and self-love and the moments when he has validated my feelings or empowered me to be brave and vulnerable. [...] Schuyler is incredibly intuitive, well-resourced, intelligent, and present. He is patient, he is understanding, he is so kind, he is empathetic, and all of those qualities and more make him the ideal mentor and coach. [...] Schuyler's support and coaching have truly changed my life and have empowered me to live as my true, authentic self unapologetically every day. I am forever grateful for Schuyler and the safe, brave space that we have created together." — Maggie
"I was able to grow and become the man I was meant to be. I was given the tools to heal a lot of residual trauma from systematic racism, misogyny and toxic masculinity, and internalized transphobia. Working together really helped me transition more smoothly into society as my authentic self." — Kooshan
"Schuyler has helped the entire family. Most importantly, [my son] feels seen and heard. Having a shared experience is so important. [My son] is often relieved he doesn’t have to explain things to Schuyler. That Schuyler just gets it, especially topics pertinent to a teenage boy. Schuyler is knowledgeable and a great facilitator. He is warm and a great listener." — Kim
"Schuyler has clearly invested the time and done the work when it comes to his craft. He is a safe space that is always advocating for others, and he does the work when it comes to his own personal development so he can show up better for others. He is an excellent life coach." — Blare
"[My child] seems more confident in his trans identity after sessions with Schuyler. He seems lighter and happier. I think talking to an adult who is also a biracial transgender man has made a huge impact on him. He can see himself in Schuyler." — Anonymous
“I liked that Schuyler provided a very welcoming space to talk about anything… seriously anything. Every week I had a list of things that I wanted to address and resolve and every session was met with insight, reflection, and exercises to help me combat whatever situations were in my way. Some of the benefits that I noticed as a result of working together was overall self-acceptance of my body and mind. As a trans man myself I felt that Schuyler allowed me to step into my body without issue. […] Schuyler being able to relate created a feeling of peace I had yet to experience 5 years into my medical transition." — Landon
"I would recommend [Schuyler] to anyone who needs mentorship. [Schuyler has] multiple ways of helping with problems or issues, from offering tactical solutions to more emotional support." — Oliver
"I am Autistic which makes eye contact feel really overwhelming and overstimulating for me, yet I felt confident in the fact that Schuyler didn’t judge me for the ways in which I needed to take care of myself to be present in the space." — E
"I felt that my feelings were really heard. I felt understood and respected in every way […] I am truly thankful for this experience. I didn’t know that he would have such a positive impact on my life." — Bernardo
"I keep telling my friends that I suggest they try out a session with [Schuyler]. I think there is more value to our sessions than other therapists. These sessions are very affirming and validating. And the feedback I receive is very valuable as opposed to other similar support I got (coaches, therapists, etc.) that merely acknowledge I was different but didn’t know how to support me in spite of them." — Kooshan
"[Schuyler was] very understanding and made it easy for me to open up. When [Schuyler] would relay what I said back to me, it helped me realize that things that at first seemed messy were actually manageable. […] [Working together] helped me say and do what I need to, without letting my anxieties take control of the situation." — Quewon
