For men who feel stuck, disconnected, or under pressure to “hold it together.” You may be struggling with confidence, emotional struggles: anger, anxiety, stress, intimacy, or relationship breakdowns.

You may find yourself caught in anxiety or patterns that keep repeating, no matter how much insight you already have. Perhaps this is tangled up with cross-cultural identity, or the pressure of holding it all together while feeling disconnected from yourself. You don’t just want relief — you want to understand where these patterns come from, with compassion and curiosity instead of judgement.

Have you spent years trying to understand yourself, only to find the same emotional patterns and relationship difficulties resurfacing? Insight can take you far, yet sometimes something deeper remains unmoved. Often, this is because trauma is not held only in thought. It is also held in the nervous system and in the protective responses the mind and body learned long before there were words for what was happening.

Feeling you need support outside of your family and friends? Not sure about changing or enhancing some aspect of your life? I work with adults, couples and older teenagers looking for solutions. Knowing WHY a pattern keeps showing up or being aware of a past trauma or event can be helpful, AND sometimes "why" just isn't enough to create the change. Combining Gestalt psychotherapy with SE (Somatic Experiencing), we can begin to shift the patterns that are stored in our bodies and our mind memory.

I work with adults experiencing relationship anxiety, fear of abandonment, people-pleasing, conflict avoidance, reassurance-seeking, jealousy or comparison, and reactions that feel disproportionate to what triggered them. These patterns tend to repeat across relationships, and often sit alongside high personal standards or a habit of putting others' needs first.
These patterns may have developed as responses to childhood relationships that were inconsistent, critical, or unpredictable. We work to both understand where these patterns came from and how they show up today to work towards lasting change.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
