Without question my heart, passion, and skill set is working with men and young males ages 18 and up. Specifically, African American males with disabilities and behavioral challenges at home, work, and in community settings. My background and education provides an unique perspective into the challenges young males and men face. In addition, my strong belief in the family unit, as modeled by my personal lifestyle, provides me with an equal passion to see couples married and non-married figure out how to transition into lifestyles that best suite their individual and collective mental, emotional, and spiritual needs.

I am seeking to work with clients and families who want to uncover why life is not as fulfilling as it could. I want to help bring light to dark places in people's lives. I provide services in under served areas to reduce the effects of disparity in the mental health community. I feel that mental health is a right for all people at all stages of life. A little help now can have big impacts later in life. I also constantly advocate for the rights of the mentally ill.

Are you having trouble figuring out your current season of life? A philosophy I received from a mentor was, “Everyone makes sense when you listen to their story.” My approach with individuals is Interpersonal, Trauma-informed, and Narrative Focused. Interpersonal because we are human beings who desire to be seen, heard, and understood. Trauma-informed because we all must be aware of the impairment pain causes, whether physical, mental, or emotional. Narrative-focused because this is your story, and I desire to know how you want the story of your life to continue.

My approach is to accept that all people will see the world through their own filter. Everyone's belief system makes sense from their perspective. Unhappiness is caused by the view people take of things so the internal dialogue is the key to understanding people. Focus of therapy is to help indiviudals find a better way of looking at their current situation through empathy and cognitive restructuring. The ultimate goal is finding some joy in the journey.

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.
