A client with social anxiety told me our sessions are the one place where he is in control. He chooses what we talk about. He says what he wants to say, how he wants to say it. He sees a side of himself that was always there, hiding in the shadows. When we meet, he gets to be the person he wants to be: calm, confident, independent.

I help my clients become more confident, content, and true to themselves, while decreasing unhelpful approaches like worry, inaction, bottling emotions, people-pleasing, and avoidance. My clients are professionals, students, academics, and couples who have recognized that, despite their successes, something is wrong: old ways of coping are failing; challenges are harder to manage; deeper connections are missing; painful thoughts keep resurfacing; difficult memories are walled off; their inner experience is marked by turmoil and confusion; low confidence or existential dilemmas lead to stuckness. Does this sound like you?

Over the years that I've practiced therapy, I've had the privilege of working with people who have experienced the overwhelming feeling of being trapped in their thoughts; consumed by grief and loss; debilitated by anxieties and fears; angry and frustrated in their relationships; caught in despair and hopelessness; stressed, hurt, neglected. They have also sat across from me and expressed their delight in a new perspective; relief in their improved sense of self-worth; gratitude for life's gifts; love, hope, courage. Together, we explore the sources of their struggles and the tools available to find relief and wholeness.

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.
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.
