As a therapist who has worked extensively with young people, I understand the unique struggles you face. I provide a relaxed, non-judgmental environment for you to open up about relationship troubles, academic stress, career indecisiveness, loneliness, and any other issues weighing you down.

My ideal client is someone who is willing to work with me in order to achieve their goal. This includes being able to have back and forth conversation around ways to achieve that goal, as well as have the more difficult conversations when it comes to road blocks and the occasional self sabotaging behavior. I will always be honest in my assessments, and thoughts, and my hope would be that my client is as well.

Coming from a Lead Clinician role for a Virtual Partial Hospitalization (PHP) Program, I don't believe in an "ideal" client. In my previous role, we rarely had insight into a client's clinical presentation before their intake. I have learned to tailor my approach to each client while aiding them in learning emotional regulation techniques and interventions to sustain sobriety.

I have aided people with a myriad of issues, including codependency, depression, anxiety, many forms of trauma, addiction, and metaphysical issues.
I feel my ideal client is one who is self-motivated in wanting to uncover what hides beneath their unresolved traumas, fears, and old survival modes.

When I meet someone, my initial goal is to understand who you are as a person and all the systems in your life. I believe that there is often not just one explanation for why we feel the way we do, but rather a collection of experiences that create our perspectives. Oftentimes, we are very focused on what is directly in front of us, addressing the symptoms and not the underlying issues. I'd like to address both. Our conversations often start with what is happening in your life right now. Once we get an understanding of your current thought processes, we zoom out and explore larger themes and perspectives and how they all connect.

Waitlist for new clients
I have many techniques that I use to help clients reach their goals from many different modalities and theories, but I have the most training and experience with EMDR and CBT.
Imagine a life in which your painful memories no longer keep you stuck, but instead give you power and strength - a life in which you're able to do the things you want to do, and work towards achieving your aspirations. This is the goal of many of my clients and I have been fortunate enough to see many of them succeed. Many of the clients that I work with have gone through overwhelming experiences that they feel still have control over their lives. Many of them are dealing with anxiety, depression, and PTSD, and some just need a little help through a difficult change in their life.

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.
