Life can be complicated. Let’s work together to simplify it. You may say, “Easier said than done, Sebastian”. Agreed. Taking time out of your day to find someone to help you is already putting in the work. You have already committed to the process. Let’s see if I may be a good fit for you and your needs. Whether you have engaged in therapy before or this is your first time, I welcome you.

I have been working in private practice since 1985. I provide therapy for adolescents and adults. I am a provider with low vision. This does not interfere with my clinical abilities, but does prevent me from working with children and families. My services are generally short-termed, and solution-oriented. I can offer a wide variety of treatment strategies and tailor services to specific needs. My clients participate in forming treatment plans and goals. I offer feedback, constructive suggestions and techniques. Client satisfaction is important to me. I look forward to working with you.

My clinical areas of expertise include working with people who feel anxious and/or depressed; survivors of emotional, physical and/or sexual abuse; LGBTQ people facing a host of life issues; and gay men who engage in compulsive sexual behavior.
Entering therapy is a bold, brave step. Most people who have been struggling have tried everything they know to feel better. Asking for support from a therapist marks a turning point. I offer clients my clinical judgment and attention that is rooted in a blend of Psychodynamic, Relational-Cultural and Mindfulness theories with a body-oriented focus. I integrate these concepts into our work in clear, understandable and practical ways. My clients tell me that they appreciate my real and authentic presence; my gentle, direct and honest feedback; and my engaging and interactive way of talking with them.

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.
