Life is a journey. We have successes, trying times, and natural challenges to overcome. I feel passionate about being a positive agent of change in the lives of my clients. I recognize that an ideal client is one that desires change, and this inspires me to view my career as a gift and privilege. I specialize in treating grief (life losses and non-life losses), chronic illness, and women's issues. I also treat anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, divorce/separation, men's issues, self-esteem, and more. If you are thinking of change, you are capable and worthy of creating it.

There are times when we struggle with an issue and need someone to encourage and help us. Sometimes we need to tell just one other person something we have done or been through. And once in a while our wheels come off, and we need serious support and help. It is very important to me that you feel safe when you come into my office, and that you are heard when it comes to the issues you are facing. I want you to feel you won't be judged and hopeful that true healing can occur.

I specialize in anxiety and mood issues related to reproductive and other health conditions, perinatal and birth trauma, grief and loss, workplace stress, men's issues, and relationship issues.
How you show up for yourself is just as important as how you show up for others. This fact often gets lost when we are faced with stress, trauma, illness or loss. “Coming back” to yourself with understanding, compassion and empathy is a critical first step toward personal recovery and restoring relationships that are hurting. In therapy with me you will gain tools to help with coping, communication, and setting boundaries. I help clients understand their own emotional attachment needs and interpersonal style and I believe therapy is most effective when grounded this way.

I provide individual, couples, and group therapy with a specialization in men's issues.
The decision to pursue therapy requires vulnerability and risk. Choosing a therapist who understands this reality is important. Like most adults, you may be seeking therapy to explore why your relationships are unsatisfying or why you feel unfulfilled. You may hope to understand how painful emotions like shame, sadness, and anger have affected you. Many adults seek solutions on their own, only to feel stuck in repetitive cycles of behavior that produce momentary relief.

Men's Issues Therapists
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
