When parents call me, I most often hear that their child is experiencing big emotions they are unable to control, that their child is struggling with grades or focus in school, that their child isn’t communicating with them anymore, that their child is expressing more anger, or that their child just doesn’t seem like themselves. Parents are calling when they have used every tool in their toolbox to try to help their child, and don't know what else to do. Through counseling, we can add new tools to the toolbox that allow both the parent and the child to navigate these challenges with personal growth and stronger family relationships.

Counseling has the potential to be the most frustrating group project that you will ever take on. I mean this sincerely. You have about 45-50 minutes a week to work through a lifetime of content, your partner does not “give you the answers,” and there’s no rubric that is handed out when you start. It is just you and another person trying to figure this life thing out, or at least that is how it looks.

Adults seeking my care are seeking clear directions/training in how to address longstanding resistant problems with anxiety, depression, codependency, esteem, chronic pain, dysfunctional ties. I am "terminally optimistic" about my ability to hear patients and then introduce them to practical solutions to address symptoms, emotions, and lifestyle. It's not only about insight, but also about implementing what really works. My ideal patient is ready to risk change: to face themselves, learn or re-learn positive ways to self-nourish, is open to the practice of building self-reliance step by step. Each one of my patients is courageous.

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.
