Your path of healing is a unique journey that can feel overwhelming, confusing, and at times hopeless. Whether you are experiencing a major life transition that has turned everything upside down, are grieving the loss of a loved one, in active recovery from a significant trauma, or simply feel a deeper call to access a more authentic expression of who you are, I’m here to help. I’ve supported veterans, first responders, and front line health workers navigate their recovery from trauma, burn out, and moral injury, which has inspired my approach to trust in each person’s capacity for resilience.

It can be easy to view mental health as a kind of fixed state of “wellness” we should strive for. Through my work with others and experiences in my own life, I have learned that it is more productive to think of mental health like a verb: a changing, evolving process that requires new insights and approaches over time. Whether life is knocking us down, we are knocking ourselves down, or a bit of both, therapy is a great way to find the tools to manage life’s challenges more effectively. Learning new skills is critical, and so too is building a more compassionate relationship ourselves.

When you feel like you can’t be yourself, it hurts. Lots of things get in our way: abuse, systemic bigotry, feeling overwhelmed, or struggling to find motivation. Sometimes we even know what we want to be different, but somehow can't make it happen. Whether you're working through this on your own or with a partner, sorting through the challenge to find where to start can be really difficult.

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. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
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 a male therapist. 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, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. 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.
