The world can be a confusing and painful place, and we all need places of safety where we can make sense of ourselves and the things we're going through. My hope is that therapy can offer a space where you will feel seen, receive support, and gain insight into the things you've already been through and everything you're experiencing today. It can be easy to put our own needs aside when other things feel more urgent, and I want to create a space where you and your needs are able to be a consistent priority.

You wonder, “Why does everything feel so hard and meaningless?” You want control over your life but keep saying, “I’ll do it in 10 minutes,” and then never do it. You scroll at gatherings instead of connecting and later feel discouraged. You move through your days without feeling present or grounded. You’re not alone. In our hyper-connected world, staying focused, processing emotions, and finding meaning beyond our devices is harder than ever. This affects more than productivity. It impacts your relationships, your well-being, and your ability to live in alignment with your values.

For all of us, life becomes painful and overwhelming at times. To step into therapy takes courage, and it is a difficult journey to take alone. The counseling relationship is a partnership in which the seeking of understanding of the issues, and the undertaking of a path to health, is the goal. Problems manifest in anxiety, depression, or other stress-related issues, particularly difficulty enjoying life. ALL are attempts to cope with these problems, and the partnership requires trust and mutual respect. Meeting an experienced and compassionate professional who can best address these issues is the first step toward resolution.

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.
