Sometimes, it's hard to walk through the door and ask for help. I've been there myself many times in my life. In today's world, it's also tough to find time to practice self-care. Therapy is meant to be a judgment-free space where we explore whatever you need to, whether it's grief, trauma, self-love, spirituality, self-esteem or cultural/identity issues.

It can be difficult going to therapy for the first time, but it can be a key to identifying and removing obstacles in your life. I specialize in working with couples and individuals who have a desire to stregthen their relationships, recover their intimacy, and create a more fulfilling life. I believe the quality of our lives are highly informed by the quality of our relationships. Unfortunately, there may be barriers that get in the way of building meaningful connection with yourself and others. Unprocessed trauma is an issue that is often the root cause of strained relationships, addiction, and overall poor mental health.

I am an encouraging therapist who is passionate about helping others reach their goals and experience hope and healing. My therapy approach is rooted in the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I have found this approach very effective with a multitude of issues. CBT is strongly supported in the professional literature as having verifiable evidence of success. As a Christian, I like the emphasis CBT has on the importance of building truth into our lives and how important it is to speak truth to ourselves.

When working with new families, we start by asking three basic questions: - What is working well? What are you currently worried about? What needs to change? I approach counseling in very much the same way.

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.
