It may seem a tall task, but I have worked with many couples and individuals and have seen success.
You are feeling hopeless, stressed, anxious, and concerned you won't be able to handle this much longer. Your relationship is in the pits and you wonder if it could ever be renewed. Trying to communicate with your loved one feels too overwhelming and like walking on eggshells! It's hard to know what to do anymore. Tired of arguing, scared of being alone, and the possibility of losing everything that is important to you describes your life. Events in your life are hard to deal with and the person you should be able to count on is someone who hurt you and you are struggling to trust. Do any of these situations sound like you?

Waitlist for new clients
I became a therapist because therapy changed my life. Experiencing mental illness was a struggle, caused emotional suffering, but lead me to reach out for help. The support I found brought solace and healing, and eventually opened doors that led to becoming a therapist. It is such meaningful experience to reach those who are now where I once was. Over the years I had opportunities to work in many settings, including medical and mental health hospitals, intensive outpatient, and residential addiction treatment centers, and now private practice.

The idea of reaching out and asking for help can be a daunting task for many. For some, the idea of seeking help was downplayed or discouraged from an early age. For others, it feels overwhelming to begin digging deeper or speaking honestly about their situation. You are definitely not alone in this. It's not unusual to feel overwhelmed, lost, depressed, anxious, and alone when handling life's stressors. While many people want out of this cycle, it's often too overwhelming to do it alone. Together, we'll work to create more adaptive habits, recognize patterns, and build insights to help you get the most that life has to offer.

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.
