I have been a Family Practice M.D. for the last 45 years. Throughout that time, I have always been interested most in Mental Health. In the last 10 years working as a gerontologist and Family Physician,I realized that caring for Mental Health was really more than a field of strong interest; but had become the area where I really wanted to serve. My passion to serve for the last five years. has evolved into starting a private practice devoted only to Mental Heath issues. My goal is to provide care to anyone regardless of insurance or financial status.

You might look like you have it all together, but inside, your mind is racing, your sleep is off, and focus feels out of reach. Maybe you’ve been pushing through ADHD, anxiety, depression, or trauma for years without slowing down.

I work with men who are ready to feel more balanced, focused, and grounded in both mind and body.

Many people become so accustomed to living with stress, anxiety, and burnout that they try to push through by ignoring the impact past trauma may still have on their daily lives. Over time, what once felt manageable can begin affecting emotional well being, relationships, sleep, focus, motivation, and the ability to feel balanced or present. I provide a compassionate, collaborative, and judgment free approach focused on helping clients feel understood, supported, and empowered to regain balance and emotional stability

FAQ - Psychiatrist Gender
Does it matter what gender a psychiatrist is?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, often using a combination of psychotherapy and medication management. While psychiatrists of all genders are equally qualified, the therapeutic relationship is central to effective care, and finding a provider with whom you feel comfortable is an essential part of the process.

What are the advantages of seeing a male psychiatrist?
For some individuals, working with a male psychiatrist may play an important role in building trust and ease within that relationship. Personal, cultural, or past experiences may shape this preference. Some people feel more comfortable discussing certain topics with a male provider, particularly if they’ve had positive experiences confiding in men in other areas of their lives. Others may seek out a male psychiatrist for support with issues that relate specifically to male identity—such as navigating societal expectations around masculinity, fatherhood, or addressing emotional expression in environments where vulnerability may be discouraged.

How to find a male psychiatrist
Psychology Today’s online directory allows users to search for psychiatrists by gender, making it easy to find male psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs). Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approach, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. These details can help you evaluate whether a provider is a good fit for your needs.
