Life is predictably unpredictable. Despite this, adapting to challenges may not always feel familiar or simple. Feeling understood and accepted is a powerful aspect to dealing with change, but not always available or prevalent. My goal is to provide support and tools while navigating through a variety of struggles and challenges. This does not require someone come in with a well-constructed plan. Therapy can be used to develop strategies and next steps. For over ten years I have had the pleasure of working with members of the community to find their best path forward.

My practice is grounded in a deep respect for the complexity of the human experience. I work with individuals navigating emotional pain, relational conflict, identity struggles, grief, and the often-overlooked existential questions that arise during major life transitions. Rather than reducing people to symptoms or diagnoses alone, I focus on understanding the full context of their lived experience — their history, relationships, values, and internal narratives. I encourage people to question rigid belief systems and inherited narratives that may no longer serve them.

You’ve been carrying more than people around you realize. Maybe the trauma you lived through—whether family trauma, military service, or difficult relationships—still shows up in your body, your reactions, or your ability to feel safe. You might be exhausted from always being “on alert,” or tired of pushing through anxiety, chronic stress, or patterns that no longer serve you. If you’re ready for things to change and you want a therapist who is warm, direct, and truly gets trauma, I’m here to help.

Safe, respected, valued, and understood – these are the emotions that clients experience when they feel connected with their counselor. These emotions, which can be thought of as “principles of care,” serve as the foundation for a successful relationship. Upholding these principles is my priority. Doing so allows my clients to take brave steps into the unknown, to explore terrain that can be full of fears and frustrations, to formulate solutions where none could originally be conceived. Together, we map this landscape and learn from its features – until the time my clients feel ready to continue the journey on their own.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
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.
