I tend to work mostly with men and focus on the nuances of healthy masculinity. I enjoy working with professionals including other therapists, but have clients from many different backgrounds as well. I view therapy as a sacred experience where we can work together to help you create a unique path to growth and overcoming challenges. I use both traditional psychology approaches to work on healing the self alongside a Transpersonal approach, which focuses on transcending the self for greater inner peace and emotional well-being. I believe both approaches are important on the journey toward wellness and fulfillment in life.

Do you feel like you are disconnected from your partner or do you fight all the time? I know what these struggles feel like, and I know how painful it is to face those problems alone. Creating stronger and healthier relationships and sex lives is my primary focus. I have extensive training in helping couples and I get down to business in the very first session. I offer individual therapy, couples therapy, two day in person intensives for more complex issues, and Discernment Counseling. Get more information about my approach at my website: www.relationshipexplorations.com.

The challenge is walking up in the morning and making sense of our lives in order to get going. The times that we live in are becoming increasingly more difficult. It is easy to feel alone, lost, stuck, and without a compass to find our path. The way to turn things around in our lives starts here and now. You have come to a safe place where you can be vulnerable, heard, and seen through and through.

Having a guide who has experienced trauma, who has faced life's hardships, & who has chosen to walk a path of self-discovery, provides a level of understandings that fosters caring insights. Which encourages & nurtures the complex exploration that uncovers our internal wisdoms. Where personal courage begins to lead the way toward a more authentic, & aligned way of being, that becomes the healing process.

I would be honored to help you in self-discovery and change. It takes a lot of courage to travel down that path. I often can intuit the key issues underlying a person’s suffering, which are often relational-both within ourselves and with others. To be kind and yet direct, and to really see you-both as you are now and how you want to become more whole. Finding clarity, compassion, and new ways to effectively deal with problems are essential in therapy. I will help you find where you are stuck and ways to get unstuck, by changing how you process both your thoughts and feelings. I work with both adults and couples.

I provide a safe, supportive environment to help you take the next right step towards a happier and healthier life.

I have been a licensed therapist for 19 years. I believe that the most important part of therapy is the therapeutic relationship. The therapeutic relationship is formed in a collaboration between myself and my clients in an environment of mutual acceptance and respect. In addition to my education, training and experience as a therapist, I rely on my innate skills as an active listener, my good memory and genuine caring to guide me in my approach to therapy.

Hi there, I'm Blake, a licensed clinical social worker. I've helped people with many issues like anxiety, depression, personality disorders, grief, divorce, severe mental diagnoses, and many more. I am trained in many different therapies and tailor a plan to each patient, rather than tailoring a patient to a plan. In my view, people used to mostly lived in close-knit communities, which has eroded with the advances in transportation and technology. Most people have lost the social support our forebearers had. Mental Health Professionals have taken on this role and are an excellent resource to improve your well-being.

You may seek help with your partner when you feel like you're stuck in a loop where the harder you try to work things out, the more you wind up hurting each other. You may come on your own if you've hit a rough patch and need help regaining your equilibrium. My job, as I see it, is to join you and help you unpack your thoughts and feelings with an eye toward building a brighter future.

In my work with clients, I facilitate mind-body-spirit (re)connection after it has been disrupted by trauma or stress. I offer a soft spot to land for folks who have been in prolonged dysregulation post trauma exposure, as well as highly sensitive people impacted by empathic stress. Here, I respect the unique language of your nervous system, the wisdom that lives in your body, and support you in fostering a grounded connection to both. This serves to be the space where you can tell your unspoken stories, allowing them to be held outside of the confines of your body & mind. Together, let's process what no longer serves you to carry.

Men's Issues Therapists

Is therapy for men different than it is for women?

Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.

How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can men prepare for therapy?

Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.

What should men know about the process of therapy?

One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
