Male Therapists in Charlottesville, VA
Whether you’ve tried therapy before or this is your first time, the process of choosing a therapist and getting started can feel overwhelming. It’s daunting, but important, as I believe the fit between client and therapist is one of the most important parts of treatment. I look at therapy as a partnership and try to adapt my therapeutic approach to each client’s unique needs. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel both validated and challenged. Everyone should have an environment where they feel comfortable discussing their thoughts and processing their emotions free of any judgment.

Reaching out for help is the first therapeutic act. It takes courage, vulnerability and trust. Successful therapy is dependent on trust and vulnerability and at the core of this is feeling understood and accepted. In our first session I will give you a picture of what to expect from our work together and provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you can talk about what you are currently struggling with. As your therapist, my job is to offer you my mind, my attention, my empathy and my honesty in service of your growth and development.

Feeling lost, alone, or scared is a common experience, and many of us struggle with thoughts like, "Nobody understands me," "I don't deserve help," or "Others have it worse, so why should I be kind to myself?" Many of us tell ourselves a variation of this from time to time. Perhaps, the recent job market changes and layoffs might have shaken your trust in your employer or career field, leaving you uncertain about your next steps. Let's work together to explore your personal journey and strengthen your relationships with yourself and others. Let’s navigate this path together, finding clarity and building resilience along the way.

I am passionate about helping clients engage their stories in a way that leads to a better understanding of who they are. As a Christian Counselor, I seek to create a compassionate space for you to express your fears, hurts or stressors while combating the shame that often compels us to hide. My role is to guide, encourage, and challenge you as you move towards growth. I also believe not all counseling is about change. Sometimes, circumstances outside of your control lead to a hard season of life. In these instances, I seek to empathize, listen and identify the truths and values that help us feel a sense of calm in a chaotic world.
