I am a Licensed professional counselor with more than twenty years of experience in the field of counseling. My goal as a clinician is to help individuals and familes deal with their struggles, working with them to build appropriate skills as necessary and harness strategies to effectively deal with them. In addition to being a professional, I am also a Christian therapist who values an individual's faith values. Faith can be an important component in therapy and when appropriate, I provide counseling from a Christian/ biblical world view too.

If you are a parent, you know it is a unique, beautiful, but very stressful experience. Parents, families, and their kids may all find themselves in need of guidance to work through parenting concerns, relationship dynamics, school & life stressors and so much more. After experiencing a crime, your sense of peace and safety may feel robbed, and asking for help seems impossible. As a juvenile or adult offender, it can be hard to find support transitioning back into the real world. No matter the situation, when you need help, life can feel like you're trying to fill a water pitcher with a hole in it. You don't need to feel like this.

Each of us experience stress, anxiety, depression, and grief throughout life, and the need for love, safety, respect, and nurturing. The question isn't whether you can eliminate these feelings and needs; rather the question to ask is; "How do I take responsibility for fully understanding myself?" I declare that everyone is being called to discover themselves in the deepest sense. "What is your spirit communicating to you?" "What do you need to live a healthy life?" As you ponder these questions, I believe that your pain is what pushes you and your vision is what pulls you through life.

I have always gained great satisfaction from helping people feel happier and in learning more effective ways to achieve more fulfilling lives. Those clients who are eager and open to learning more about themselves in order to achieve these goals benefit most from my approach as a therapist. I often focus, therefore, on insight, meaning, and symbols (including dream interpretation)in order to help clients establish a more positive and accepting perspective of themselves and others. In therapy, I work with obstacles against achieving these goals that include anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, and interpersonal and relationship issues.

Life's journey can be overwhelming. I believe one size does not fit all, so I treat people as individuals and always consider the needs of the overall person. I therefore embrace various approaches to therapeutic treatment and often incorporate person-centered, solution-focused, motivational-enhancement therapy (MET) and CBT.

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. 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.
