A focus I have is working with women who have had unsuccessful/unhealthy or codependent relationships with men.
With compassion and understanding, I work to create a safe and trusting environment for individuals to share their inner most thoughts and feelings.  I will also meet each individual where they are in life and to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth the they are committed to accomplishing. As a therapist uniquely trained to listen in depth, I offer my warm, thoughtful style and 15 years of experience to listen with patience, understanding and insight.  If you are wanting more than just listening and understanding, you maybe seeking therapy because today's troubles express how something's not working for you.  My psychodynamic approach considers your current circumstance, past history, feelings and motivations, dreams and disappointments. In short, you as a whole person. By looking at you as a whole person, I can help you develop your self understanding and acceptance so that you can be more open of your strengths, accepting of your limitations, capable of a living a fuller life and confident about today.

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.
