We can all benefit from therapy at some point in our lives. You don’t have to be “crazy,” desperate or on the brink of a meltdown to go to therapy. People with strong support systems can deal with the day in and day out struggles of life without needing therapy. When do we know it's time to seek therapy? Most of us try to deal with struggles on our own until they become unmanageable. When you are no longer yourself its time to seek help: overwhelming feelings of sadness, anger, changes in your eating and sleeping patterns, soothing with alcohol or drugs are several examples. Take the first step towards better health.

Let’s be honest––this is quite possibly the dozenth or so therapist bio you’ve read as you search for the “right fit” for you, and you might not even be sure what the “right fit” is. Maybe you’ve got about a million questions running around in your head, and no words to put to half of them. You’re probably experiencing some emotions that are difficult, scary, or just plain complicated. Maybe you’re not quite sure what to do with them on your own.

I specialize in providing compassionate support to professional men and women as well as school-age teens who are navigating challenges related to anxiety, depression, and trauma.
Are anxiety and worry squeezing you? Does sadness and despair shadow your every move, regardless of your efforts? Do you carry memories of abuse and trauma, leaving you broken, damaged, and disconnected from your true self? The weight of these emotions forms a relentless storm within, casting shadows over relationships whether at home, work, or school. The pressure to be perfect weighs heavily, eroding well-being and sowing doubt. Sleep, focus, and clarity remain elusive. Internally, you yearn for success and true happiness, yet the struggle persists, leaving you feeling like a mere facade, a fake, a deceiver, a fraud.

Not accepting new clients
I’m about to retire. Not taking new clients. Thank you! We know that we pass down our hair color and eye color from generation to generation. We even know that we pass down risk for heart disease, cancer and even addiction. What we don't realize is that we also pass down risk for affairs, partner abuse, and child abuse. When we hide these things in shame, we create a culture of secrets, lies, and BS. I believe we can break these repeating, dysfunctional patterns patterns in our own lives and in our family's lives, and that we can help our children not to repeat them unintentionally.

Male Therapists
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. 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.
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.
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.
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.
