There are no ideal clients, only degrees of willingness to grow, develop, and actualize. This can mean becoming the best version of yourself (even if you don't know what that is yet!), overcoming a current hurdle, or learning to navigate difficult emotional terrain. Having a vested interest in learning new ways of thinking and being will take you further down the road to a better You! Clients often feel ill prepared to make difficult choices, lack trust in themselves, or are completely overtaken by the burdens life has thrown at them. Deciding and manifesting the next chapter of your life is both a scary and wondrous adventure!

My approach is focused on offering and fostering a safe place, a trusting therapeutic relationship, so that you can process life's stressors and learn how to manage and cope with overwhelming emotions and situations.
Are you feeling "stuck" or "shut down"? Perhaps you're feeling like you are on a never-ending "hamster wheel" and are having trouble making sense or finding purpose in your life. Maybe anxiety or depression are preventing you from engaging with yourself and the world in the way that you would like - more connected, more open and less "closed off." I can offer a safe space for you to process these and more life issues you are facing, freeing you from the burden of bearing them alone and perhaps learning new strategies to cope with life's stresses. Normally you're pretty good at overcoming obstacles but are finding it challenging.

As hu mans we have been created as social beings.
In my 58+ years of life experience and 28+ years of work as a therapist, I have learned that life is hard and at times painful. That we at times endure great suffering, we get stuck, and unable to move forward on our life’s journey or unable to feel the connection to our Source, to life, to our relationships with others, or to find joy. This is common and universal in our life experience. There are things that we do, conditioned physical responses, unhealthy thought patterns and ruminating on story lines which can amplify our suffering, contribute to our being stuck and interfere with our ability to experience the joy of living.

I strongly believe that all hu mans can reach an optimum state of health. An essential part of achieving this often involves addressing limiting habitual patterns of behavior or belief systems as well as learning skills to optimize healthy relationships. I seek to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment in which clients can identify their own answers and achieve tangible results. This can occur both in individual sessions as well as with the collaboration of family members. My practice has lead me to work with youth, young adults, adults, and families facing some very challenging life situations and internal struggles.

Thanks for your time. I provide support for clients while holding the belief that we experience life in the context of mental, physical, emotional, spiritual and social dimensions that are inseparable; those aspects that makes someone a whole person; the people we are, the product of our personal and social interactions and contributions to them; that which makes you, and that which makes me—we; that we are equal, interconnected and are more alike than different. I think about healthcare from an integrative approach; that historical, contemporary and complimentary/alternative forms of medicine are not mutually exclusive.

I firmly believe that whatever struggles you are facing at this time in life, you have been doing your best to manage a good life, all things considered.
Few of us make it through childhood without having experienced trauma of one form or another. Often times, the adaptations that we make in order to best survive early life challenges, lead to patterns of belief and action which get in the way of us finding freedom, happiness, and fulfillment as adolescents and adults. Every person deserves an opportunity to grow to their greatest potential. Therapy is a facilitated process of increasing awareness of obstacles to growth and supporting transformation.

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.
