Yes, you have strengths. When you feel anxious, depressed, traumatized, or overwhelmed in general, it is easy to forget about your natural strengths and capabilities. You come to therapy for several reasons. You want to identify a specific goal and make measurable progress towards that goal, and you want to use this safe space to unpack your thoughts and feelings, to know you are heard, not judged or criticized. From this experience your mood can improve, your coping capacity can deepen, and your confidence can increase. When we work together to identify your strengths, you will move forward with clarity and in a positive direction.

My therapeutic approach is both strengths-based and trauma focused. I start out by identifying your strengths alongside your treatment goals. I believe that we all hold the answers inside of us, and clarity will come once we slow down, bring in compassion and curiosity, and hold space for all the parts of you. I am trained in psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems and EMDR. I have experience helping people who have struggled with suicidal thoughts, severe depression, chronic PTSD, severe anxiety, and personality disorders. If therapy hasn't worked for you in the past, let me see if I can change that for you.

I also help parents and caregivers — especially those raising Black and Brown boys and families in blended or co-parenting systems — build clarity, connection, and consistent discipline. My approach is relational, culturally informed, and focused on helping you understand patterns, reduce overwhelm, and strengthen your family system.

You want honest conversations, practical strategies, and a clear path toward feeling more confident, grounded, and in control.

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.
