I specialize in treating men ages 14-50 who struggle with mental health concerns surrounding depression, anxiety, loneliness, peer/romantic relationships, self-esteem, school/work stress, communication, parenthood & life-transition issues. In a world that is constantly pulling us in different directions and demanding more from us, I'd like to provide a space where you will be seen and heard. A space where you can learn to understand yourself. And most importantly...a space where everything gets to be just about you.
Therapy with me will involve us understanding who you are as an individual while addressing the unique challenges, concerns, and mental health issues that men may face. Commonly discussed topics include but are not limited to: anger management, mental health stigma, friendship, romantic relationships, work-life balance, communication, and fatherhood.
In this hyper-competitive society where what you produce seems to matter more than your humanity, I want you to know that you are not alone in this struggle. I can provide a safe environment for you to speak your mind and share your feelings…and the best part? You don’t have to do it alone! Please give me a call or send an email to get started.

I work with men who may be struggling with depression or anxiety related to their work/school and personal life. During our initial sessions, we will explore the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first 4-6 weeks and sustained improvement thereafter.
