For over 35 years, I have been helping individuals find purpose and direction and overcome grief, anxiety and depression; couples prepare for marriage and couples grow from unhappiness to renewed marital satisfaction; and children face the challenges of too much stress as well as teenagers and young adults learn to cope and manage the challenges of adolescence and young adulthood. People often close me because of my extensive Biblical training and Christian values: every person is important; marriage is worth hard work; and children deserve to be well loved and respected.

In over 30 years of practice, I have discovered that my clients want more than relief from their symptoms. They want to better understand themselves and their struggles, they want practical tools to help them change, and they want more out of the relationships and their lives. Through my practice, continued training and education, and my own personal growth I am committed to offering my clients a wide range of meaningful and effective therapeutic experiences that address each of these desires and more. In addition to traditional psychotherapy, I offer hypnotherapy and equine assisted psychotherapy (an innovative experiential therapy).

I specialize in helping men in their 20s and 30s.
Receiving support from a therapist who has both been through this journey and done the work to unpack it can be invaluable. I can't understate the value of the counseling I received earlier in my life, and that's why after a decade in business professional I made the shift to be a licensed resident in counseling. I believe you also deserve a mentor.

I've chosen to focus a majority of my work on underrepresented groups in therapy, such as spiritual leaders, men, those struggling with ADHD and adolescents.
As Brene Brown said, “We can’t be brave in the big world without at least one small safe space to work through our fears and falls.” And as a therapist who has worked with clients who have both been to therapy in the past and those stepping into therapy for the first time, I’ve learned that the one thing required for a successful therapeutic relationship is to create that safe space for the hard work of therapy to be done.

The combination of fitness/wellness, mental stability and spiritual growth lead to the development of the self-realized man or woman.
When a person realizes that self awareness is the only long term solution, they will seek only to understand themselves. No longer do they seek to blame the outside world for their thoughts or feelings. My ideal client is one who seeks to do the work to evolve . Together we start the journey to locate the "inner" barriers that may be holding you back. We do the work to gain control of your thoughts and feelings that are keeping you feeling "stuck". Lasting relief comes from learning techniques which are less about problem-solving and more about letting-go of old beliefs and habits. Know thyself and the whole world changes!

I am excited to begin working with anyone wanting change, and have found myself especially passionate about helping young men and adolescents find meaning and joy in life and their relationships.
My therapeutic approach is mainly person centered, with strategies and concepts also taken from CBT (Cognitive behavioral) and DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy). I tailor my interventions to meet the unique needs of each client, recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to mental health.

I am especially curious about interrogating the ways in which patriarchy pressures men to conform to narrow ideas of masculinity, to compete with one another, to see vulnerability as weakness, and to deny ourselves close relationships.
Together we can improve your health, well-being, and help you overcome obstacles that may be getting in the way of life. My approach typically targets how you can be more open, aware, and actively engaged in your life. It is informed by a commitment to healing justice and fostering diversity and inclusion in all spaces. To accomplish this, I use several frameworks that bolster your intrinsic strengths, aid you in shaking free of unhelpful stories, deepen your sense of self-awareness, and allow you to heal collectively with natural supports. I also integrate the wisdom and the life experience that you bring.

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.
