When they enter counseling with me, clients are experiencing depression and anxiety. Usually it is moderate to severe; at times it is in response to a current stressful event or loss, for some clients, their depression is long standing. It is not unusual at all for a new client to have seen therapists previously, without benefit. Yet, after four to six sessions, they tell me that they have already started to experience much benefit, with this also being obvious from there presentation of self, and body language. With further sessions, the client moves into an exalted state of happiness or even euphoria. Remarkable & Joyous to see!

Feeling stuck? Change can be tough for adults, teens, and children alike. Trauma and stressful events can shape our views and emotions. You may feel anxious, nervous, or overwhelmed, unsure of the cause. Adults often juggle responsibilities to avoid feelings, while teens might find it hard to set boundaries with peers. Children may struggle with expressing their emotions, leading to frustration. Knowing our limits is crucial; overcommitting can lead to burnout and strained relationships. It's important to acknowledge these feelings and seek support, regardless of age, to foster healthier connections and self-awareness.

I believe that all people struggle with signs and symptoms of stress, anxiety and/or depression at some point in their lives. We are social creatures and we need to feel a sense of community or belonging with others. We need to feel connected with those people who are willing to listen, share their life experiences, and guide us to a better way of coping with the uncertainties of life. This is the reason I entered the counseling profession; to be that safe harbor in the storm. Whether you see me or another therapist, please know that you do not have to struggle on your own.

Male Therapists
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
