Are you feeling withdrawn or overcome with worry or anger? Do you find yourself depressed, with less motivation for life? For men, it can be hard to put into words what we are feeling. If you are struggling, it may be time to reach out to someone. Let's work together to come up with a plan to help you understand your emotions, reduce anxiety and depression, and work through trauma. Continue reading to learn how booking a therapy session, while difficult, is the best decision to make for yourself!
With over 12 years of experience as an individual and group therapist, I specialize in helping men manage symptoms of anxiety and depression, and processing trauma. We'll work together to learn how to understand, manage and express emotions in healthy ways, plus identify and practice coping skills for the management of difficult feelings.
Submit your request here on Psychology today or visit my website to schedule a consultation. Let's work together to address these feelings that hold you back and make real change in your life. Please note, My practice is out-of-network with insurance companies and my fee is $150 per 50-60 minute session.

I am trained in many types of therapy, though I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). With CBT, we can explore negative beliefs about yourself which lead to negative thoughts, feelings and behaviors. We can start to challenge those beliefs and thoughts and work to cope with feelings that come from this.
