With a history in school counseling, I have transitioned to allow for individual and group counseling through both a virtual platform and in nature-based settings. My years as a percussionist have taught me that everyone has rhythm build into their bodies. Once people find their rhythm, positive life changes and natural healing can take place. I work from a trauma-focused lens using Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) and Therapeutic Fly-Fishing with EMDR (TF-EMDR) for treating trauma.

I approach therapy from a strong person centered perspective. I believe that all persons have the ability to change. I utilize an active listening, non-judgmental approach that allows clients to utilize their own native ability to solve their own problems. I believe that every person has a strong drive to expand and grow and to achieve their fullest potential. This potential can be frustrated by many of the challenges presented by life but it can never be eliminated. As I see therapy, it is a vehicle for a person to realize and release that innate potential.

Living authentically is difficult, the world around us seeks to distract us from what we hold most dear. Addiction often holds us back from engaging in our lives and being present for both the big moments and small every day moments. In my practice I believe that each individual has a purpose and my goal is support you in discerning that purpose and staying true to it. I've often heard the term to "road to recovery". I don't believe that recovery is the destination, I believe that recovery is the road that is traveled. I would be honored to walk that road with you.

Thirty years of practice taught me that therapy can be more than empathic listening and supportive talk but an active vehicle of empowerment and change. I have combined my foundational training in structural family and narrative therapies with the depth orientation of mindful insight and the action techniques of cognitive behaviorism. Working with individuals, couples/families, we collaborate to identify the patterns that reinforce relational conflict ("structures") and the repetitive stories told and heard about personal limitations ("narratives"). Then, with our combined wisdoms, we rewrite the script(s) to include greater meaning and motivation, humor and hope, compassion and clarity.

Going through life feeling misunderstood, disconnected from others, uncomfortable in your skin, and that the world isn’t to be trusted can be a lonely and frightening endeavor. Using drugs and or alcohol may seem to be the only real relief. Everyone has two sides to them, one believing nothing will ever change and another hoping for a better way. I provide a safe and supportive environment for you to explore the negative self-talk and inner critic that prevents you from being your authentic self, leading you to use substances to cope.

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.
