Hello, welcome to my practice. In our time together, my goal is for you to experience yourself as a unique individual along with understanding that there is nothing uniquely wrong with you. People are often judged for having problems. if you use insurance to pay for sessions, therapists are required to give you a diagnosis, indicating what is wrong and what needs to be fixed. This is not the way I look at people. There is no one who is free from suffering, which is not even the problem. Instead our "struggles" stem from a lack of compassion towards ourselves.

Please note as of January 2025 I am now offering tele-therapy.
I use a strength based approach that focuses on cooperation not competition. I achieve this through the process of art therapy, where people can bond by working together creatively. While I am not against medication, I suggest the use of it as a last resort. I believe in many alternative holistic treatments that can be a substitute for medication. I see people as an integral part of a system, rather than seeing people as separate, as in the medical model.

I believe that therapy is not just about listening, but about mutual engagement. My therapeutic approach, using CBT and DBT, is comprised of building a genuine relationship through moments of light-hearted humor, productive honesty, and the celebration of accomplishments along the way.

Our broad goal––of course––is “the end of unnecessary suffering.” Sound about right? While we all strive for this, I specialize in helping folks with a very-unique kind of suffering: OCD. I can tell you that few people understand the pain and complexity of OCD—(even most therapists). I will listen intently to your unique story. Just know that I can introduce you to an arsenal of tools that can help: mindfulness, ERP (exposure and response prevention) and on and on. Yes, thoughts can be “sticky.” But––with hard work––if (or when) those thoughts come back around…they can be as quiet & as harmless as a yellow post-it.

I believe in second chances. Everybody can have a setback and they can be overcome. I'm in long-term recovery, 17 years to be exact. I have never looked back since. I passionately believe in the peer model and have been coaching since 2014. I support the Recoveree in removing the barriers to their recovery. The beauty is in meeting people where they're at so that they can meet their desired goals.

I believe that an effective therapist should help to organize our understanding of our strengths, our ways of thinking and acting, and the impact our social and cultural context has on us. This work helps us to better understand the sources of our distress and guides our selection from among a broad range of useful therapeutic approaches for coping. I believe that therapeutic change is heavily dependent on each client’s goals and motivation, and it is the job of a therapist to create a safe and trusting space in which to inspire and encourage this change.

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.
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 therapists of a specific gender. 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. 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.
