Other specialties include men's issues , 12 step recovery, relationship issues, work/life stress, anxiety, and depression.
Sometimes it can be helpful to talk through issues with someone giving you their undivided attention. It can also be helpful to explore other forms of creative expression when talking isn't enough. I offer these avenues for growth to my clients. Clients I work with often discuss relationship issues, stress related to school or work, feelings of depression and anxiety, and substance abuse and addiction issues.

I believe therapy is for everyone, as none of us go through life unaffected by its many complexities. This is no weakness: it's part of being human. Life often has a way of making us feel alone, misunderstood, or strange. Situations arise that make us feel unloved, empty, disconnected, or isolated. This can be changed. I work collaboratively, and come from a place of deep respect and empathy. I let the client guide me in what I consider to be an egalitarian journey. My goal is that each person feels safe, seen, and heard.

People seek therapy when they are feeling overwhelmed and when their usual coping skills aren't working. Maybe you're feeling stuck in your work life or relationships, or struggling to find a sense of well being. These difficulties can lead to symptoms of depression, anxiety and addictions, to name a few. I envision therapy as a space where two people can focus together on whatever is causing you pain. I believe this process can lead to greater self-awareness, effectiveness, and personal freedom, as your choices become more conscious and your sense of self deepens.

All of us have the basic needs of connection, validation, and support within a trusted relationship. Many of us wrestle with our past mistakes or trauma in the form of depression, or worry about the uncertainty of the future in the form of anxiety, or simply want help navigating the complex modern world. As a therapist with years of diverse experiences, I believe I can help a variety of clients, from children ages 10 and up to adolescents, and adults.

I have the privilege of accompanying clients as they go through some of the most painful and some of the most joyous times of their lives. I see therapy as a journey that the client and therapist take together with the therapist playing the role of a traveling companion, guide, and interpreter. I have extensive experience providing counseling services to adolescents, adults, and families in various clinical settings. The focus of treatment includes improving self-image, changing negative self-talk, and working through trauma. My approach is collaborative, working together to define and achieve therapy goals.

Thank you for visiting my Psychology Today profile. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with experience supporting clients through a range of mental health issues. My approach in therapy is to establish a trusting, non-judgmental, and collaborative working relationship in order to most effectively help clients overcome personal obstacles. Whether these obstacles have to do with difficulties in relationships, not feeling happy with oneself, or an overall feeling of being "stuck," I strive to help clients pin point patterns and core issues that may unintentionally get in the way and make it harder for them to feel fulfilled.

You are you, and nobody understands this as deeply as you. I approach our work from a humanistic, person-centered foundation that helps guide your innate strengths to discover, or re-discover, your authentic self. For some, therapy might look like a winding journey, for others, a direct path. Or it may be a mixture of both. I’m a relational therapist and believe that the fostering of a trusting alliance between us is essential to the realization of your unique goals of change and growth.

As someone in recovery from mental health challenges I've experienced it all. In being lost and finding my way back I've come to know the terrain you're navigating. In my years of counseling this has allowed for deeper connections and radical transformations. My professional experience has led to teaching other mental health professionals and guiding the transformation of a large hospital system. ​ Whatever it is that you're facing, through my personal experience I might understand what you are going through and be in a unique position to provide what you need.

Parenting is one of the most wonderful and challenging jobs anyone can have. Childhood can be a time of joy and amazing growth. Yet at times our children may have struggles beyond our scope to help resolve. I help parents figure out this puzzle. As a parent I have experienced these joys and challenges. Children share their lives openly with us, communicating verbally, but mostly nonverbally through creative play. The work I do allows children to express themselves fully. When I meet with parents I create a safe space for open and honest discussion. This can include addressing personal issues.

Hello! My name is Henry. At certain points in life we may hit a roadblock. We have goals & attempt to achieve them, yet feel so lost & confused in the process. These days so many of us are trying get somewhere, to achieve, to transcend, to become. Others may feel they can't even start to formulate their goals & desires due to current or past challenges. I've seen how our past can convincingly deter us from taking action. If you feel like you've been on defense for too long, or you've been trying to reach a certain place with no success, I think I can help. Whatever your struggles, you can learn how to become a better problem solver.

Online Counseling for Men: Are you a man who feels stuck between anger and numbness? Stressed out and anxious? Maybe you've doubted going to therapy because it seems too strange. Do you wish something would change in your relationship, but you don't know what to do--or worried it might end? Or maybe you're the guy who's constantly the friend of every woman you'd actually like to date. Plus, COVID-19 has raised all these stresses to the nth power. For white guys, maybe you're also realizing how race and racism have played a role in your life. You're ready to take steps to undo harm--but it seems like there's no way out.

I am an experienced and qualified psychologist who can assist with a wide range of concerns. The person I am working with is someone who wants to take control of their mental health. This is more important than the diagnosis itself because it's about how we support that individual in learning new skills for life, not just treating whatever symptoms they have at any given time (or denying them). I specialized in issues related to masculinity (men and boys), anxiety-related disorders, and borderline personality disorder.

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.
