Male Therapists in Mid-Levels, WC
Hi! Originally from Canada, I’m a specialist counsellor and sport psychologist with over 20 years’ experience. Currently I specialize in three areas: Couples Counselling, ADHD (all ages) and Mental Training for Athletes. My basic approach is fluid and flexible, but more importantly... practical. In general, I work under the assumption people come to therapy (or coaching) seeking real-life solutions & strategies and a new way of being, rather than ongoing “talk therapy” or loads of theory. Ready for change? Great. Let's make it happen... ;)

I often meet clients as they are reaching the limits of their abilities to handle life's surprises. This doesn't necessarily mean that their lives are falling apart, but they're recognising what is working for them now may not always work and they're seeking new ideas and new ways to live. Whether that is handling stress at work, dealing with conflicts in their relationships, clients I work with often feel like they're coming up short and are unable to break through - in short, like they're stuck. They want to try something new but are unsure what may work and are looking for resources and support to build themselves up.

Do you want to understand why you always act the way you do? Does it seem to you that your behavior follows repetitive patterns and you'd like to be able to change it, but you tend to always fall back into the same ruts? How about starting from the beginning and trying to understand what's going on?

Based in Canada, seeing client in Hong Kong! I work with clients who are looking for scientific evidence-based practice and warm caring connection. I believe that change starts with the relationship that we form in the therapy and then continues by building useful skills in and outside of our sessions. In practice this means that I fit best with clients who are interested in (1) understanding more about their thoughts and emotions while also (2) taking clear steps to improve their mental and physical well-being. My job as the therapist is to provide a warm and caring environment to support the client in this process.

Do you want to break free from substance-use, anxiety or some other problematic way of coping? I am a psychotherapist specialising in helping people separate from anxieties (specific and general), addictions (substance and process), distressed eating and the effects of trauma. This also involves relationship issues, problematic patterns of thinking and behaviour, body image and sex, shame and guilt. These problematic coping mechanisms are often tangled up with underlying pain and distress which remains hidden from us and I work with clients in a two-step process to resolve this.

Anxiety, depression and men's issues are far more common than you might think.
I specialise in anxiety, depression and men's related issues such as barriers to intimacy, ED, low/no sex drive, pornography addiction, and relationship challenges. In psychotherapy sessions I provide a confidential setting that encourages you to reflect on your journey. We will explore the feelings, emotions and impact significant events have had on the way you experience day-to-day life. We will work through your thought process moving towards the version of you that you've always wanted to be. Who is that person? Are they confident in themselves? And most importantly, do they allow themselves to smile, laugh and be happy?

Life can be a struggle, and for some, the reasons for seeking therapy are clear: you might be exhausted, easily irritated, or extra sensitive. Perhaps you're constantly worrying or stuck in a low mood. Maybe you struggle to connect with others and fear you don't belong. You've noted specific problems you want to understand better and overcome. However, there are also times when it might not be so evident and you sense a lack of meaning, purpose, and satisfaction, and want to explore a way forward. I typically work with young (18+) and adult professionals looking to make more meaningful rather than reactive changes to their lives.

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.
