I have been working with kids in the "system" for the last eleven years. I have been very successful in addressing parent/child conflict as well as reaching those adolescents who are otherwise difficult to reach. While my primary expertise is in dealing with adolescent boys, I am also well-equipped to deal with the family as a whole. If what you are doing isn't working, call me.

Now offering weekend appointments! I understand that navigating through tough situations can be challenging. It can feel like no matter what you do, things just don't seem to get better. We've all experienced those tough times. But remember, there's hope. Deep down, each of us holds the power to find our way through difficult situations and get back on track. The real challenge is finding someone who can support and guide us, helping us to rebuild confidence so that we can regain control of our lives. I understand how important it is to lend a helping hand. Assisting others is not just what I do for a living, it's my true passion.

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.
