My belief is that each client is unique, and therefore no single style of treatment can be utilized for every situation. Having over twenty-three years working in the fields of mental health and substance abuse, 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.

I have been successful in helping client's reach their full potential when struggling with life events that can lead to anxiety, depression, insomnia, PTSD, addiction, and marital conflicts. When confronted with life stressors, many humans have the tendency to stuff their emotions with drug, alcohol, and food addictions which negatively impact their life and loved ones. I look forward to helping you navigate life's journey and embracing the mind, body, and soul experience in order to work towards a harmonious and rewarding life. Together we can make lasting changes for a healthier lifetime, however the choice is yours!

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.
