Everyone experiences difficulties in life and there is no time like the present to find help supporting the emotional weight you may be feeling.

Emotional Regulation has been made harder through the current cultural climate and my hope is that together we can make your ability to feel at peace with yourself a reality.

“There are two extremes to avoid: being completely absorbed in your pain and being distracted by so many things that you stay far away from the wound you want to heal.” This quote by Henri Nouwen describes the middle ground I aim to help people find in therapy. Maybe you feel like you are constantly treading water—drowning in your anxiety, anger, or shame. Or maybe you have habits, addictions, or unwanted behaviors that take the edge off or help you numb out for a while. A lot of people find themselves, like a pendulum, swaying back and forth between these extremes. Sound familiar?

Hello friend, I'm Itai, a Psychology Professor with 20 years of experience working with thousands of therapy clients. I also supervise therapists and train them as part of their university degrees. I offer Single Session Therapy. We are used to the idea that therapy requires years of weekly sessions. But in reality what you need is the right therapist, asking the right questions. When you know its a single session, you approach it differently. There is honesty, passion, and openness that are all part of your motivation to realize, grow, and transform. I will make sure that we turn this one session into a life-changing experience.

It's important to note that I embrace the emerging neurodiversity paradigm, one that appreciates individual differences in areas of perception, cognition, and choice-making that make us unique hu man beings.
In this age of narcissism and self-discovery, many are feeling isolated and alienated from others, causing us to reassess our relationships and personal choices. Many are disillusioned, anxious and depressed due to unwanted life experiences that threaten our sense of security and block our path to happiness. Understandably, many seek a trusted space to identify their concerns, explore circumstances in the context of personal feeling and values, and create an authentic pathway forward that's aligned with one's aspirations. If this description of distress and desire for change resonates with you, please consider my helping hand.

Hope.Relief.Freedom. Life has gotten progressively more difficult over the last few years. People of all ages are struggling with fatigue, discouragement, despair, and even hopelessness. All of these things result in poor perfor mance in regulating emotions and navigating relationships, controlling behavior (especially for kids and teenagers), focusing your attention and concentration, jobs and careers, sports, academics, and daily life. Despite what you've heard, and maybe come to believe, you and your kids can put all those life "perfor mance difficulties" behind you and thrive in a way you perhaps have never imagined.

Our brains are the center of our individual universes, the control for all cognitive, emotional, and physical experience. It is always adapting; assessing then shaping and reshaping our worlds. It is equally nimble and fragile, while having the potential to unlock unlimited hu man potential or create unbearable realities filled with shame, fear, and anger. When these processes are off, we are off. We feel stuck, anxious, and closed off. Through therapy we are able to evaluate these patterns, perspectives, and behaviors, and ultimately work towards and solidify a life worth living.

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. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
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 a male therapist. 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, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. 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.
