My belief is that each client is unique, and therefore no single style of treatment can be utilized for every situation. Having over two decades working in the fields of mental health and chemical addiction, I believe in empowering people to develop and achieve their personal goals rather than dictating the course of treatment for them. Every individual comes to therapy with the hope of making some positive change. I give them the tools they need to make this possible. The client is always in the driver's seat, no exceptions in this regard.

Everyone comes in to therapy with a unique life history and individualized challenges. If you have ever experienced difficulty in regulating your thoughts, emotions, or behaviors, if you have struggled to manage particular aspects of life such as work, maintaining relationships, having an idea of who you are and who you'd like to be and you are looking to work towards a healthier version of yourself, I firmly believe and have seen firsthand that things can change.

I think we all yearn for a safe place to get to know ourselves better, especially when life feels overwhelming or we have tired of the same old negative patterns. I consider therapy a sanctuary to explore oneself at a comfortable pace and in a supported manner. I see the relationship between the client and myself as a partnership, in which a shared gentle curiosity drives the process of inner exploration. My aim is to build enough trust that my clients can feel safe enough to glimpse more deeply into their pain, and perhaps more importantly their opportunities for growth and increased life satisfaction.

Seeking help can be difficult, just like life. Our work together would involve facing those difficulties and finding a way through them. Through collaboration and curiosity, I enjoy helping clients feel more alive, ease distressing inner thoughts, and become more creative. By talking through what’s happening and examining patterns, we can better understand the situations you’re in and navigate them with more clarity. We can become unstuck and more fully appreciate who we are, where we’re going, and who we’re becoming when someone is there to help.

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.
