I help people who feel like their lives are overwhelming or out of control and are ready to do something to produce change. Through active collaboration, we can identify the specific things you want to change in your life and create achievable goals based on what you can realistically control.

Have you ever gotten to a point where you felt overwhelmed with life? It seems like the more you push through juggling school, work, family, relationships and/or life transitions thinking you can handle it the more you find yourself in a cycle like running in a hamster wheel feeling stuck. Sometimes you might feel like you’re just going through the motion in quiet desperation while wishing you knew what to do to emotionally handle life stressors better. You may even talk to friends, family, or distract yourself by staying busy but yet it’s not enough.

I have worked for 13+ years helping others understand themselves in order to find freedom, to live a meaningful life defined by themselves. I specialize working with men struggling to find their place in the current society that has left them behind. Most treatment has not adequately been developed deal with men’s issues, as evidence by the large but silent mental health crisis within men and boys. Men’s emotional expression such as anger and irritability are often pathologized and punished, opposed to being heard for the underlying cause and I look to change that.

We all experience stress in our lives, but sometimes that stress is overwhelming and we have trouble coping. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be an incredibly effective tool to help manage anxiety, depression, and other stress-related difficulties. CBT focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in everyday life. As a cognitive-behavioral therapist, my approach is collaborative, individualized, and based on scientific evidence.

We often spend much of our lives navigating from one challenge to the next. It is due to these challenges that we question ourselves, strain our relationships, and inevitably feel lost and disconnected. Not only do we end up lost and disconnected from the world and others, but we often feel lost and disconnected from ourselves, as well.

Do you wonder why unhelpful patterns keep showing up in your life and relationships? Why do you put other people’s needs ahead of your own, take things so personally, have trouble opening up, suffer from analysis paralysis, feel bad about setting boundaries or communicating your needs, etc, etc? Let's understand first, and then learn new skills and strategies to break out of those cycles. Potentially even find ways to use perceived limitations in a more pleasant way.

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.
