If you are a parent, you know it is a unique, beautiful, but very stressful experience. Parents, families, and their kids may all find themselves in need of guidance to work through parenting concerns, relationship dynamics, school & life stressors and so much more. After experiencing a crime, your sense of peace and safety may feel robbed, and asking for help seems impossible. As a juvenile or adult offender, it can be hard to find support transitioning back into the real world. No matter the situation, when you need help, life can feel like you're trying to fill a water pitcher with a hole in it. You don't need to feel like this.

I have extensive experience working with adults struggling with substance use, dual diagnosis, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I've been particularly successful in helping patients develop relapse-prevention strategies by identifying triggers, recognizing warning signs, and building coping skills that support long-term recovery and emotional wellness. I also work with patients on improving time management, daily routines, and overall mental health awareness. I help them better understand their symptoms, develop practical life skills, and create achievable goals that promote stability, personal growth, and lasting change.

I have been trained in, and enjoy practicing, body centered psychotherapy. This modality focuses on obtaining a deep understanding of the human person and offers the possibility of a more profound transformation than is commonly expected when engaging in popular methods of therapy. A central goal of body centered psychotherapy is creating the required safety and support to allow a person's own spirit to guide a healing process which addresses issues that hinder the experience of peace and joy that is the birthright of every human person.

First time in therapy? Or tired of feeling like you have to handle everything on your own? You don’t have to have it all figured out to start. I work with teens, young adults, and millennials—especially men and people of color—who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, and past experiences that may still be affecting them in ways they don’t always recognize.
A lot of my clients aren’t used to opening up. They’ve learned to push through and handle things on their own, but over time that can feel exhausting. It may show up as overthinking, shutting down, or feeling disconnected in relationships—you’re not alone.

I have always gained great satisfaction from helping people feel happier and in learning more effective ways to achieve more fulfilling lives. Those clients who are eager and open to learning more about themselves in order to achieve these goals benefit most from my approach as a therapist. I often focus, therefore, on insight, meaning, and symbols (including dream interpretation)in order to help clients establish a more positive and accepting perspective of themselves and others. In therapy, I work with obstacles against achieving these goals that include anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, and interpersonal and relationship issues.

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.
