Do any of the following statements sound similar to what you are going through? Replaying the past or rehearsing something that might happen. Having a difficult time adjusting to a transition in your life -even a positive change can be difficult. Maybe you are struggling in your relationships, or you are struggling with self esteem. Maybe you feel like you can't keep up with all the stressors/pressures in your life. You are barely holding on. These are some of the reasons you may be considering therapy.

With over 23 years of experience in private practice, I have worked productively with adults, couples, and teenagers, in addition to running group therapy. For many people coming to therapy is the most important step in their life. Perhaps above anything else, the most important part of psychotherapy is the bond that is built between the therapist and those seeking treatment. The “right fit” in therapy is crucial to the patient’s progress.

Coping with depression, anxiety, addiction, or even just life stressors can at times feel overwhelming. It's like you are stuck in a cycle of pain and anguish, and your best efforts to deal with it end up making things worse. Maybe you have reached out to friends and family for help, and have been met with either criticism or well-intentioned, but unhelpful advice. You might have even read a self-help book or two, and struggled to use what you've learned for more than a couple weeks. Sometimes, even the efforts to change seem so difficult that you'll give up, convinced things will never get better. There is a better way.

You're a hard-working high-performer feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or stuck in your life. You can't shake the feeling that you're not enough and also too much. Perhaps you're struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, or people-pleasing. Maybe you're spread too thin and exhausted from trying to do it all and be it all. You know for sure that you're constantly in survival mode with no time to enjoy the life you worked so hard for. But it doesn't have to be this way. I see there: your gifts, your light, your power, and I specialize in helping ambitious humans who are ready to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

Men's Issues Therapists
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
