Men's Issues Therapists in Port Townsend, WA

Are you looking to help your family, relationships, at-risk-teen, or yourself? As a licensed therapist, for the last 25 years, specializing in Marriage and Family and also Addictions Counseling, I have experience working with a wide range of people. I have found that tailoring therapy using a combination of solution focused, motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral therapies are very effective for most. Additionally, if you are looking for someone to help with military related problems I am a disabled former Marine with years of experience working as a counselor with the Navy.

Are you tired of feeling lonely or dissatisfied in your relationships? Do you ever wonder if you just weren't "cut out" for love despite wishing desperately for it? As an Intimacy Coach, I specialize in teaching individuals and couples how to cultivate deep, satisfying and authentic relationships. Together, step-by-step, we will examine what gets in the way of vulnerability so that you can finally get close to others. As a team we will work to shift your fear of getting hurt into the courage to open. You will learn how to get your words to match what's really true on the inside.

Caseload full. I primarily work with adult individuals and adult couples (for sexual health concerns). Telehealth only. I believe, as human beings, we want to feel respected, loved, valued, appreciated, and understood. I believe most of us want to make a difference in the lives of those around us - our loved ones, friends and community. Navigating life can be difficult at times. We can all benefit from a safe, knowledgeable, and compassionate guide. I strive to help people become more connected to themselves, so that we can connect more authentically to others and expand our capacity to feel better and cultivate lasting fulfillment.

My practice is closed to new clients for now. Licensed as a Mental Health Counselor in Washington, my education and training is in Jungian analytical psychology. Emphasizing the creative principle in healing and growth, this work inspires a devotion to being honest and willing to self-reflect, then make life-enhancing changes in behavior and attitudes. I specialize in listening to, and collaborating with, the generative spark that is in-born within us all. In my book, Healing With Nature, I present fresh perspectives on the nature of psychological transformations.

What kind of life do you want? Is it important to have truthful and clear communication, loving relationships, and successful work? Whatever your traumas, losses, and fears have been, there are ways to work through and let go of the past, enjoy the present, and create hope for the future. Skills are available to handle grief, anger, depression, guilt, procrastination, and resentment while maintaining the connection to those we care for and love. Good self-esteem is produced when through positive intention and careful attention we meet our challenges and difficulties to the best of our ability and live a meaningful life.
