I developed several models of therapy that include group music therapy approaches for addiction settings, Music Video Group (a creative art therapy approach for at-risk adolescents), and a treatment for perfor mance anxiety.
I went into this field as a result of wishing to overcome the binds of my own traumas, anxieties, and desire to make sense of my life. That was in 1983. Over the course of my professional career as a music therapist and psychotherapist, I have had the privilege of working with, learning from, and sharing the personal journeys of thousands of people who have had the courage to change. I have a great deal of respect and appreciation for these journeys and would be honored help you explore more effective, healthier ways of coping and healing.

I believe all of the struggles people face come down to existential issues and the desire to lead a more fulfilling and happy life. I believe people have what it takes to free themselves from their struggles within. A therapist should be someone who can help remove the obstacles that block self-fulfillment. I believe therapy is an excellent path to self-actualization. I have worked in the helping profession for over 25 years. I received my Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Florida International University, am a state Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and a Certified Addiction Professional.

I helped many individuals like you overcome their difficulties.
Amid this whirlwind of struggles, setbacks, and issues, it's understandable that you feel lost and uncertain about what to do. Everything you try does not work, leaving you feeling down, alone, and unappreciated. It's overwhelming to be stuck with challenges and burdened by anxiety, frustration, and despair. You grapple with low self-esteem, hopelessness, uncertainty, or holding onto painful memories and negative beliefs. Feeling unhappy with your relationships and job adds to the sense of darkness and uncertainty.

I am a fellow traveler on the adventurous, mysterious journey of life. On this journey, we are faced with obstacles we must overcome to reach our goals. When faced with an obstacle, we have several options. Ignore it and pretend it's not there (denial), turn around and go back (avoidance), say we are not quite ready to deal with it and wait for the "perfect" time (procrastinate), or, we can strive to confront it and persevere. Join me on a journey to learn the tools necessary to gracefully and courageously overcome problems and deal with obstacles head on.

My approach to psychotherapy is highly relational. I believe that most of our distress in life, often in the form of anxiety, depression, or uncontrolled anger, arises from unresolved conflicts in our important relationships, past and present, and that psychotherapy works by providing a new relationship-a supportive, empathic one in a which person can explore these important interpersonal connections, come to understand them in new ways, and change them. I focus the dialogue on a person's significant relationships, past and current, and on the feelings that one has about oneself and the important people in one's life.

As the years passed and I had two children of my own, I began working mainly with adults, conducting marriage counseling as well as individual psychotherapy. In addition to individual therapy, I also ran two ongoing, open-ended groups for the past thirty years. My wife and son are also both practicing psychotherapists at Broward Center for Counseling.

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.
