Hello, my name is Caleb and the reason I love counseling is because It brings me immense joy to support people in their journey towards becoming the best versions of themselves. I strongly believe that people are inherently good, but life can be challenging and sometimes it can be difficult to see the good in ourselves.

I initially do a general assessment of why the client is seeking therapy as well as their mental health. Together, we outline a plan for treatment and set goals for where they want to see themselves. My clients appreciate my laidback, but not passive, approach to their treatment.

I specialize in working with individuals who feel like life has gotten stale. I love working with people to help them regain a sense of vibrancy in life.

Regardless of where you find yourself in that movement, I would be honored to get to walk alongside you in it.

I used to wonder if there was a better way. It felt like life had grown up around me—except my coping skills hadn’t grown with it. Maybe you feel like that too? Feeling lost without a clear idea of what to change, what to do next, or what will actually move the needle.

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.
