Are you or your child anxious? Terrified to do something you know you should be able to handle, but just can't? Do you have a child that is not doing well in school? They may need some extra support that they are not getting from the teacher or school staff. Or do you not get along well with your child? They never seem to listen or do what you say.

Life’s challenges can be thought of as opportunities and gifts as they help us to evolve, grow, and develop insight about how we navigate our world. Overtime, we learn what works, what no longer works, what keeps us stuck, all while developing insights to what changes need to occur. Whether you are facing life transitions, mental health or relationship challenges, issues surrounding sexual orientation, or general life issues, we will work together to explore solutions. My prior work includes working with adolescents and adults in a variety of settings.

This type of coaching (similar to therapy) is often helpful for individuals who struggle with organization, time- management, procrastination, and other issues stemming from ADHD.
I specialize in providing neuropsychological assessments for children, adolescents, and young adults. I utilize a strength-based approach in my evaluations and work collaboratively with parents, teachers, therapists, and other professionals to best understand each patient. I provide diagnostic clarity regarding ADHD, dyslexia, autism, anxiety, and other issues, and offer targeted recommendations individually-tailored to each patient's needs. My goal for every evaluation is to provide a "road map" to help each patient achieve success at school, work, and/or at home.

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.
