As a therapist, I’m able to focus on deeper conversations and help on a more personal level; to quote Paul Young, I get to “walk on the holy ground of other people’s stories.”
I work with people navigating depression, anxiety, relational distress, trauma, major life transitions, and much more. I specialize in working with men wanting to grow into healthier relationships and emotional awareness, adolescents and young adults struggling to cope and build meaningful lives, couples seeking stronger and healthier connections, and those who might benefit from a corrective experience with a grounded and compassionate male therapist.

When I work with couples usually the big five issues of sex, money, kids, time and extended family come up in some form. Whether it’s communication or getting through conflicts or infidelity we can start with where you’re at and work towards building a better relationship where you haven’t only solved the problems you’ve come in with but leave with a better relationship. If you’re a man (or looking for a husband, partner or relative) I help with struggles such as depression, stress (family and work related), cheating, relationship issues, anger, and emotional intimacy, and others. I’m like you and know what men deal with.

In therapy we learn to address problems we've been avoiding because they cause us pain or discomfort. For many, avoiding problems has become a problem in itself. You may experience issues with personal productivity, mood, traumatic memories, substance use, or social anxiety. These concerns can be distressing, but they are all manageable with the right skills. A great therapist, Carl Rogers, said “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself, just as I am, then I can change.” Therapy can help you learn skills to get this process of self-acceptance and positive change started.

I truly believe, and have experienced, there is Hope in the midst of difficult times. While hard times can be overwhelming; we can take comfort in knowing we don't need to go through it alone. Even though, at times, it may feel that way. Whatever challenges you may be facing or if it seems like everything around you is falling apart, all the difference can be made when working with one who can help you see the other side of your struggle. I am excited to offer locations in Goodyear and Glendale.

These patterns can take a toll, not just on your romantic relationship but also on your role as a parent, friend, or professional. You might have tried talking to friends or reading advice, yet the answers still feel out of reach.

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.
