Are you struggling with either personal or relationship difficulties? If so, I would like to help. When combined with hard work, professional counseling can help you overcome almost any problem.

Clients have found that my style - warm, informal, humorous, and honest - helps reduce anxiety about the process of therapy. I utilize proven, research-based approaches, while incorporating Eastern philosophy, meditation, neuroscience and mindfulness-based practices into my sessions.

My goal is to assist clients in improving their quality of life. Across my career, I have come to appreciate that we receive very little information about how to improve our mental health . In most cases, clients foundational beliefs regarding mental health are often anecdotal and commonly contribute to maintaining the problems they are experiencing. I work with clients to help increase their understanding of the science behind mental health, specifically depression, anxiety, and insomnia. I work to pair this with functional tools to help empower you to take charge of your mental health.

Are you feeling like you are always trying to fit into someone's else box, the version of your life that others have for you, hoping that by doing so you will finally gain acceptance and validation? You have recognized that this is a no-win situation which only produces vacillating feelings of anxiety and depression which rob you of the life you know could be yours. You are ready for change but don't know where to start. Your biggest fear that that this would be another in a series of "starts". However, your desire to live your best life is pushing you to take a chance on change, but who will walk with you?

Life is hard... but this is not news. Life is also complex; we can believe we're strong, but feel week, or believe we're weak and surprise ourselves with strength. We crave control but feel like a passenger. We present a confident mask and have no idea who's actually wearing it. We give great advice but struggle to take our own. We've come so far, but feel like we're nowhere. If any of those rings a bell, that doesn't make you broken, or a hypocrite, it makes you human. Life is not either/or, it's all-of-the-above, and I suggest we stop making it even harder for ourselves by imagining it should be straightforward.

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.
