Bringing over five years of counseling experience, I use empathy & open ended questions to help the person or couple to process their issues and come up with solutions for life's complex problems.
Specializing in supporting individuals, couples, teens and families, I focus on trauma, relationship issues, marital conflict, communication skills, addiction, grief, adjustment disorder, parenting, anxiety/depression, and school-related concerns. I offer a unique blend of empathy, expertise, and evidence-based techniques to help you get back to feeling yourself.

Greetings- Working with families and individuals for over 20 years, It’s a honor to work with clients as well as meet them where they are in their personal journey.

I decided to become a therapist because of my own struggles with mental health issues especially as an adolescent and young adult. I want to take these awful experiences and use them as motivation to help others. If you are an over thinker, I believe I can help. I work with engineers, executives, health care professionals, teachers, and pretty much any person who is in a profession that tends to reward perfectionism and over analysis.

Waitlist for new clients
I typically work with individuals looking for help in deep self-exploration, recovery, couples conflict, and their family of origin. I thrive as a therapist when we can explore the depths of the soul. By the time we seek help, life has typically not been going as we expected, and we may not be sure who we are. We want to find a way out, but are unsure how to do so. What we need is someone to help guide us through healing. This is a life-long change that will need continued support. We can find healing if we are willing to dare to find it.

Are you feeling down? Nervous about performing your best? Could your relationships improve? Congratulations! Your search landed you on the page of a trauma-informed, compassionate and affirming psychologist. A proud Morehouse Man, my journey has taught me that life can be very hard and the road to success (whatever that means for you) can be lonely- especially in settings that lack inclusivity. This is further complicated when asking for help is frowned upon. You should be celebrating and relishing in your accomplishments, strengths, undying resiliency- and I want to help you get there!

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.
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 therapists of a specific gender. 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. 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.
