Our goal at The Launch Pad ATL is to support adolescents, teens, and young adult men towards a successful future.
My passion is helping adolescent boys, teens & young adult men as they navigate through challenging periods in their lives. By empowering adolescents, teens & young adult men with the tools and support they need, they are able to get "unstuck" and move forward with more confidence. Many of my clients struggle with their peer relationships and may suffer with social anxiety or low self-esteem, thus avoiding social interactions altogether. In the absence of fulfilling peer relationships, they may develop an over reliance on video games, social media, or other electronics use.

I work well with the client who genuinely wants to seek out counseling in order to find answers, solutions, or different perspectives to their struggles. Client success comes from being vulnerable, admitting and recognizing flaws, a desire to improve and become better, and an openness to being challenged. People come to counseling for a myriad or reasons including grief, unhappiness with life circumstances, feeling lost, lack of motivation, lack of purpose, and any other major life event causing turmoil. Through a trusted and trained adult in the therapeutic journey, clients will discover the neglected areas of their lives.

Talk therapy is a process of listening to what each person comes to say. Though therapy may often begin with a precise problem, grievance, or impasse, the process can lead to a conversation about one’s desire. Actively listening and being curious about what one says allows this process to unfold. I see the process as a collaboration.

Quality of life becomes and remains of utmost importance. More often, as individuals when circumstances in life happen; we feel impacted and at times the impact can be overwhelming. When you are challenged emotionally, behaviorally, physically, socially, and spiritually it is best to partner with the right professional to render assistance. I would hope that we could implement and achieve goals which would offer you the experience of living your best quality of life. Individuals would regain a sense of purpose and the willingness to return the life that suits you. Sometimes we struggle to put pieces together.. I believe I can help

They say time heals all wounds; this simply is not true. Unresolved trauma isn't left in the past where or when you might have experienced it. It sticks with us everywhere we go in the form of sadness, anxiety or possibly anger. Just as if we were physically injured in a car accident or maybe a slip and fall we would see a physician so that our bodies may heal properly. The same approach is needed when dealing with emotional pain (trauma). You need a therapist to work alongside you so the trauma may begin to heal. That is where I come in…..

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.
