You want a relationship that feels connected, honest, and alive—but something’s off. Maybe you’re newly partnered and want to start strong. Maybe you’ve grown apart after years together. Maybe trust was broken and you’re unsure how to move forward. You’re craving more than surface fixes. You want real change—clarity, emotional safety, and a way to feel like you’re on the same team again. Even if you’re stuck, tired of the same patterns, or unsure what comes next, you’re not ready to give up. You’re here because your relationship matters. You want depth, growth, and a path forward—together.

You deserve a space where you can be fully seen, heard, and understood. I work with people navigating anxiety, stress, self-doubt, and the pressure to appear “put together” while feeling anything but. Many are ready to break old patterns, heal from past relational or emotional wounds, and build more authentic, fulfilling connections.
I work with those who often carry the weight of feeling “different,” relying on coping strategies like overachieving, people-pleasing, or staying hyper-independent. Others are facing challenges in intimacy, connection, and shifting identity that can feel confusing or overwhelming.

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
