I've worked with a wide range of clients, including teens, young adults, couples, and the elderly. I primarily use a combination of existential therapy and Choice Theory. I deeply believe that by helping clients understand their meaning and purpose, we can then work toward developing the tools they need to gain autonomy in their lives in a way that aligns with their personal beliefs. I provide both faith-based and secular counseling and am committed to meeting clients where they are on their life’s journey. I have experience treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, infidelity, sex-related issues, and certain personality disorders.

I look forward to working with adults and teens who feel life is out of their control or who struggle with allowing themselves to be in the present moment. Anxiety and depression can draw our minds towards the past and the future. This makes it difficult for us to appreciate what surrounds us. Additionally, adult and teen athletes and musicians struggling with performance issues can feel overlooked by others. Common issues I have found include eating disorders, body image issues, struggles with personal identity, and more.

Life can be very challenging and overwhelming, and our natural tendency is to freeze or flee from our issues. However the best solution is to walk through them, and I can help you in that process. I like to listen intently to hurting or frustrated people who are stuck in addictions, toxic relationships, depression, anxiety, and confusing situations and help them come up with solutions that will work. It's important to feel supported when we're overwhelmed, and I make that my primary goal.

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.
