Male Therapists in Marblehead, MA

As a licensed clinical social worker and veteran, I understand the unique demands, stressors, and culture associated with professions centered on responsibility and service.

I welcome individuals and family members impacted by the demands of service.

I treat adults and seniors using cognitive-behavioral therapy. I also work with couples and family members as appropriate.

I believe that we all have our own unique story with our own experiences and that investing in our growth and wellbeing should be a priority.

I work with clients from a variety of backgrounds and places of need. Some clients may want to work on their own improvement and self-development. Others may reach out who are struggling with anxieties or emotional experiences that they feel are holding them back or causing them pain. I've worked with young adults adapting to new life circumstances and older adults coming to terms with loss or change. I approach counseling from an orientation toward coming alongside someone to give presence and guidance, and an opportunity to step back from day-to-day life in a place of peace.

I like to work collaboratively with my clients. I will often give an analogy of driving in a car together, where the client is in the driver’s seat and I provide the directions from the passenger seat. I will help you get where you want to go, but you still direct where that particular destination is! My particular areas of interests include (but are not limited to): depression/anxiety, life transitions, college mental health, LGBTQIA+ issues, emotion regulation, and issues with relationships. I have significant experience working with the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as with the poly/kink community.

I enjoy working with anyone looking to feel better. I enjoy helping others find relief from anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and other symptoms or mental health conditions. I help clients find and address what is preventing their ability to function, grow, thrive, or just relax! I also enjoy helping people discover more about themselves and reconnect with their sense of meaning or purpose in life. Therapy takes effort and commitment and, in exchange, provides freedom from suffering. I would love to help you discover the gift I believe therapy can give to you.

In my 30+ years of experience as a therapist, clinical supervisor, researcher, educator and writer on complex trauma, I have come to believe that we are shaped as much by the good things that went missing from our lives as the bad things that happened to us. My clients have often endured severe abuse, neglect, oppression, and other forms of life adversity. They have learned to cope and survive in ways that get misunderstood and misdiagnosed, and that can cause profound stigma, shame and social rejection. Their courage and resilience inspires awe. Finding a therapist who can see and accept all parts of them is one key to recovery.

Judy Garland said it best: "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else."

I see every instance in our lives as an opportunity for evolution. I believe in the search for insight, but also developing practical tools for change. I believe in the value of a good laugh, but also keeping ourselves honest. I believe in the importance of hope and integrity, but also managing expectations & resentments so that we can flourish.

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.
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.
