You’re scared you won’t be up to the challenges ahead. Long held dreams seem out of reach and you feel stuck. Old patterns of coping do not work or are becoming destructive. Something, perhaps a traumatic event, is blocking your happiness. Family and friends, while well meaning, just do not get what you are going through, nor can they offer the help that you really need. Work and relationships are in flux and you fear you can’t keep up with these changes. Grief, anger, frustration, and indecision cloud each day. Sleep is difficult with the sheer number of worries on your plate. Pressure is mounting and emotions seem out of control.

Not accepting new clients
My approach to therapy hinges on finding what works for you as an individual. This takes a lot of honesty and courage about the things with which you struggle. My commitment to my clients is to help them see these dynamics more clearly from a place of clarity, dignity, & respect and empower them towards a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling. I have a strong focus on relationships. This includes the connections we have with meaningful people in our lives as well as the relationship we have with ourselves. Naturally, topics such as belonging, accountability, and shared experience tend to be important conversations for us.

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.
