Men's Issues Therapists in Santa Fe, NM
Life can pull us in many directions—away from our bodies, our purpose, our relationships, and the deeper knowing that lives quietly within us. My approach to therapy supports you in returning to yourself: gathering the parts that may have been scattered by trauma, stress, or survival, and gently weaving them back into a felt sense of wholeness. Whether you're moving through anxiety, identity shifts, emotional disconnection, or a deep longing to feel more fully alive, this work invites you back into relationship with your truth, your body, your story, and the wisdom that has always been yours.

Are you looking for a way out or a way in? While I fully endorse a symptom management approach (reducing stress, decreasing problem behaviors, renewing a sense of purpose), the real struggle comes in determining the root cause of dis-ease. In unique ways better and worse parents, siblings, spouses, partners, children, friends and coworkers are all impactful in the unfolding of personality. Giving attention to these delicate relationships is essential to understanding how patterns of emotional reactivity and retreat can emerge. Effective talk therapy provides space for attunement with needs met and unmet, for safety, for recognition.

I provide individual psychotherapy, couples counseling, and career guidance. Individual psychotherapy offers the chance to solve problems and chart new directions in life.

As you develop a subtler awareness of your own thoughts, emotions, and communication patterns, you can learn to change your life.

We cannot come to a place of lasting peace and wholeness in ourselves until we learn to meet & hold our inner experience in compassion &kindness. This is a Skill, that through practice can be learned, profoundly changing our day to day lives. Progressively moving us to greater ease, joy, happiness, inner acceptance. Unresolved Trauma causing shameful feelings of unworthiness, anxiety, depression, addictions, low self esteem etc, makes this acceptance harder to do. In my early work as a Trauma Therapist in the early 90's I thought if I just helped someone resolve their traumas they would become much more happy and whole.

I successfully treat individuals and couples in distress, often when life circumstances change. I help them understand and then alter the factors that interfere with their functioning. Sessions with me frequently focus on problematic relationships because so many problems stem from issues in current and past relationships. Furthermore, regardless of what causes problems, we are often empowered to address them when we have support from others. I strive to be warm, non-judgmental, and, when needed, verbally interactive, to foster the emotional safety and confidentiality that are essential for honest, productive self-examinations.
