I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology. To me, therapy is much more of a relationship than it is a science, and a therapist is not a medical provider, nor a healer, but first and foremost a person who engages in relationship through conversations with other people, in an attempt to make their lives better.

Personal change, growth, challenges and relationships can all be rewarding and transcendental. However, at times, they can also be overwhelming and detrimental to our wellbeing. Either way, it can be a great idea to explore the possibility of seeking professional assistance to navigate the process; keeping in mid that patience and realistic expectations are critical to the success of therapy. After all, and in words of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, “real change, enduring change, happens one step at a time.” If you are considering this option, I might be able to help.

Life offers many gifts, but it can also come with many challenges. How we respond to these situations can profoundly affect our daily lives. Having the ability to talk to someone can help us renew our perspective, repair emotional wounds, and restore a sense of purpose and well-being. I recognize the importance of counseling as a transformative tool for individuals who feel they have lost all hope and are in need of a second wind. My primary mission is to support individuals on their journey towards renewed hope, emotional well-being, and personal growth.

Being a man, young adult, parent, and/or couple (especially when you're young) present a challenging set of dynamics. From expectations to societal pressures, the nature of being who you are (& what you deal with) can take tolls on your mental health. Trying to become the best 'you' gets challenged by all the turbulence that life throws at you by means of unexpected challenges, mistakes, and trials, all of which can rumble your purpose, your values, and your sense of self. If left unchecked or overlooked, these tolls can weigh heavy on you and can lead to feeling surrounded by storm clouds & less than the person you know you can be.

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.
