Sometimes it is not that everything is falling apart, it is that you are done carrying it all. Maybe you have tried therapy before and want something deeper, or you notice old patterns showing up in relationships. I work with individuals and couples navigating life transitions, trauma, depression, existential anxiety, and challenges in their relationships. Together, we slow down, look beneath the surface, and start making sense of what has been hard.

Problems have a way, often many ways, of intruding and trodding through our lives, in ways that undermine our wishes, our hopes and the relationships with people we hold dear. They can leave us believing we are powerless and the situation is hopeless. Problems can use language that make them seem all powerful, sometimes the words themselves can make them appear ‘almost permanent’ (depression, anxiety, trauma, and so on). They can cling to us.. Come consider the other vibrant and sustaining stories that are seeking you out... Come stand in a space where we actively pursue anti-colonial ways of talking/working.

I work with teens (16+) and adults, with extensive experience supporting young adults, 2SLGBTQ+ identifying folks and men, who may appear to have everything together but internally feel overwhelmed, burnt out or alone with their struggles. Many of the people I support are successful in their careers, relationships or studies, yet quietly carry anxiety, emotional shutdown, harsh self-criticism, or the lasting impact of difficult experiences. You might find yourself constantly “holding it together,” masking how much pressure you’re under, or feeling like you can’t fully open up about what’s really going on beneath the surface.

The goal of psychotherapy isn’t just about “fixing things" or "reducing symptoms." The ultimate goal of psychotherapy is to bring about psychological change, which is beyond what we "do.” When working with clients, I don’t rush or effort to get somewhere. If we go too fast and try too hard to achieve something, we will miss things that potentially can bring us learning about ourselves and opportunities for meaningful change. I use the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) as the primary framework, which allows us to slow things down, exploring your heart’s desire and obstacles in the way of connecting to yourself and others.

I work with parents who are concerned about their child’s development, behavior, attention, or emotional well-being, but do not yet have clear answers. Many families come to me when they suspect ADHD, autism, anxiety, or other concerns and want a structured, professional assessment.
These are often thoughtful, proactive parents who want to understand what is happening and how to support their child at home and in school. They are looking for clarity, not guesswork, and a clear plan for moving forward.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
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.
Why might an individual seek a male therapist?
Clients, particularly men, may look for a male therapist because they may share life experiences that help them connect well and understand each other more immediately. Some men might feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about gender-specific issues, such as fatherhood or the social pressures around masculinity. Men who have experienced trauma or abuse, sexual or otherwise, may find it more comfortable to talk through their memories of these experiences with a male therapist. 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.
Is therapy different for men and women?
Therapy can be different for men and women insofar as gender plays a role in the challenges an individual faces and the events in life an individual has experienced. Men often face different expectations from their families, friends, and society than women do. In some cases, men might feel most comfortable expressing themselves differently from how women do. Talking about one’s feelings and emotions is a critical part of most therapies, and some men might find it comes more naturally when talking to a male therapist. Ultimately, though, therapeutic treatment should be tailored to the individual’s specific needs.
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.
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.
