Going through the motions day-after-day has covered up the real you. You have spent a lot of time checking off the boxes that you thought would bring you happiness. Instead, you still feel like something important is missing. All you need is a few more hours in the day, but your to-do list never ends. It’s overwhelming and depressing. You feel unappreciated, unseen and exhausted. You know solutions and clarity are out there, but the direction you need is unknown. You’ve made a few changes and read self-help books but nothing you try seems to stick. You end up anxious, depressed and feeling fragmented. I can help!

Some, but not all of those are listed in either the specialty or treatment sections.

Parenting a child with behavioral challenges is like treading water as colossal waves crash over you. It's an unpredictable dance, catching your breath only to face the next challenge testing your resilience. Amidst this storm, the experience is disorienting, as parents grapple not just with navigating a broken system and ensuring their child's safety but also with internal turmoil—guilt, isolation, and trauma.

The truth is that we were never given the instruction manual on how to make those changes.
Have you ever considered the amount of energy, both mental and emotional, that we spend on the negativity in our lives? It's common for people to carry burdens or face challenges they feel unable to address. We all have those situations in our lives that we would like to change but tend to either ignore them or attempt to bury them and suffer in silence.

My greatest passion is understanding the individual hu man experience and tailoring services to meet deep hu man needs.
You live on an emotional roller coaster. You can't keep friends or a job. Hurting yourself feels better than hurting others. You question whether your life is worth living. Perhaps you diagnosed yourself on the internet or your doctor told you that you need something called "DBT." DBT is what I live and breathe.

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.
