Mr. King is a Licensed Professional Counselor. It is his belief that the relationship between the client and counselor is critical and that growth and healing is a result of this relationship. As this relationship develops relevant issues can be discussed and than processed, thus allowing the client to make choices that brings about growth and development. Many of our problems (depression, anxiety, anger, etc) are multifaceted and as we begin to deal with the issues surrounding those problems the symptoms decrease and our lives become fuller.

In my practice, I typically work with all different ages and types of clients that have a range of presenting issues, from Anxiety and Depression to Couples and Family Issues, Gender Identity Struggles, Personality Disorders, and many more presenting problems. I always listen to my clients and address their needs and make sure that they are getting the maximum benefit out of therapy and are working towards achieving their short, medium, and long term goals. I always tailor my therapeutic approach to fit the unique needs of each client, and I work hard to accommodate their scheduling needs, day or night, as well as their budget.

I have 22 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, & couples, addressing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, family issues, relationships, self-esteem, anger management, ADHD, personality disorder, behavioral challenges, etc. I strongly believe that counseling is a partnership between the therapist and the client, designed to arrive at the needed goals. Whereas the therapist has skills and training, the client is the expert on themselves and their families. Through working together with regard for the dignity and worth of each individual, challenges can be alleviated and strengths enhanced.

Attending a counseling session may seem intimidating, or you may be questioning how helpful it is going to be. Many of these thoughts and feelings are common for people before they start. Our lives sometimes change in ways that are out of our control. Working with a counselor can help you take back control of your life and thrive in the new normal that life has given you.

Thank you for taking time to read my profile! Since May of 2003, I have been working in the field of addiction in a variety of settings, spending most of my time in the residential setting. Working in addiction has given me the ability to work with a wide range of patients struggling with a wide range of issues including, trauma, depression, anxiety and self-esteem. I enjoy working from an REBT therapeutic counseling model, which helps clients understand how their irrational thought patterns can affect their emotional state and by challenging those thought patterns, we can begin to take control of our emotions.

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. 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.
