Men's Issues Therapists in Tucson, AZ
Finding contentment in life can sometimes be elusive when we are faced with life challenges. We may feel confused about what to do, or our emotions may be overwhelming us in such a way that we cannot clearly see solutions. Whether you are confronting past experiences or current life challenges, I will work with you to identify goals, process thoughts and feelings, and explore solutions. I work with adults of all ages in my practice and I utilize a combination of cognitive, experiential, somatic, and solution focused interventions. A large portion of my practice has evolved into helping men explore how they can be better partners.

Do any of these situations describe you?
(A) You never intended to end up here, but a line was crossed and now the truth of your hidden behaviors is out. (B) You used to be the guy who got things done, but lately, the engine has stalled. On the outside, you’re going through the motions, but inside, every single day feels like pushing a boulder uphill. (C) You’ve spent years burying the past, telling yourself that what happened back then doesn’t matter anymore. But lately, you’re realizing the past isn’t dead—it’s running your life.

With expertise in sex therapy, couples therapy, men's issues, emerging adulthood, LGBTQ and gender-affirming care, I help clients confront patterns, deepen connection, and live with greater integrity and pleasure.
With nearly 10 years of clinical experience, I’ve honed my skills to help you find a path toward an authentic you. I believe that therapy is about challenging the stories we tell ourselves—the ones that keep us stuck, small, or disconnected. Real change comes from doing the hard work: questioning old patterns, building an understanding of our beliefs and where they come from, and stepping bravely into discomfort. I want to get in the trenches with you to help you face what’s hard and build a version of yourself more aligned with your values. I strive to ensure my services are LGBTQ+ affirming, kink-aware, and poly-affirming.

A good therapist accepts and validates who you are and what you value. This can only happen if you feel compassion and warmth from the therapist you choose. Do you feel troubled by your past? By events or relationships from your childhood? Or perhaps you are unsure of what drives your distress and simply need a safe, supportive person to explore this with. I am interested in getting to know you and to learn about your unique needs.

The relationships we lean on for support often leave us feeling isolated and hurt instead. I help my clients repair wounds, rebuild trust, and rejuvenate connection. At your pace, we’ll consider how your past experiences, family background, cultural context, and personal values affect your relationships. From there, we collaborate on how you will choose to move forward.

I work with adult men in Tucson who feel stressed, stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed—and who want practical tools without pressure or judgement. Many of the men I see are dealing with anxiety, anger, burnout, relationship strain, trauma, or major life transitions.
My approach is direct, grounded, and respectful of how men experience life.
While my primary focus is men’s therapy, I also do limited work with women, particularly around borderline personality disorder, childhood trauma, dissociation, and identity.

As a therapist, I prioritize building a genuine therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy and compassion. Our bodies hold trauma and stress accumulated over our lifetimes. My practice integrates EMDR, mind-body modalities, and talk therapy to help clients cope with current stress and heal from trauma. Our life experiences also lead us to develop unhelpful thoughts and beliefs. I empower my clients to recognize and adapt their harmful thoughts patterns, giving them the tools to thrive.

I’m an experienced, active therapist, integrating techniques from models such as Internal Family Systems, EMDR & cognitive-behavioral therapy in my approach to our work. While I’m warm and caring, I’m also direct and focused on the change you seek; in the words one of my teachers, Terry Real, uses to describe his approach, I “avoid being heavy on nurture and short on truth.” I bring diverse professional & life experience, a sensitivity to culture & all other components of your identity, and an array of tools that you can use to find the growth, solutions, well-being, or healing you seek.

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.
