Do you want to learn more about yourself, how to cope in a healthy way, and have better communication? I can help. In my practice, I respect the unique experience of each individual. I see the particular difficulties that each faces. I listen and interact with empathy and provide insight and support. No two treatments are the same.

I work primarily with adolescents, children, and young adults who have had very difficult experiences and need a safe, playful, and steady partner to explore the impact of these events on their lives. As an out queer clinician I also work regularly with LGBTQIA+ clients who seek a therapist aware of the complexity of those identities in the world, as well as with parents looking to better develop skills to support trans or queer-identified children. I recognize racism and white supremacy as forms of social oppression that provoke traumatic responses and work accordingly with clients who have been harmed by these systems.

"Strength doesn't come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming things you once thought you couldn't." (Rikki Rogers) I will be the therapist who works for you on any problem you bring to the session. I describe it this way because we work on what is important to you - your goals, hopes and dreams. The starting point is with you. Sometimes people can't even get in touch with that, but trust me, I can help you find those goals, hopes and dreams. I have been at points in my own life where I experienced hopelessness, but I know there is a way out.

Dealing with anxiety or depression can be very distressing. In those moments or times, our priority becomes finding relief. However, the bigger picture is that we must focus on learning the tools that shift our mood and create an emotionally more fulfilling lifestyle. Think about the times when you felt completely confident and happy. It is very unlikely you felt any emotional discomfort. An elevated and confident emotional state will banish emotional distress. It is the antidote. Why? Anxiety and depression, which result from fear and doubt, have no place when confidence and optimism take hold.

Many people decide to seek therapy because they long for relief from pain and suffering in their lives. This may show up as anxiety, low self-esteem, unmanageable behaviors, emotional instability, or relationship difficulties. Other times the decision stems from a drive to grow and achieve a greater sense of fulfillment. Regardless of the primary motivation, I believe therapy can help all people live a freer and more satisfying life that aligns with their values and dreams.

Clients who seek my services are interested in making measurable quality of life changes. Emotional distress and conflict can create significant obstacles to psychological and overall well-being. Whether a child, an adolescent, adult, or family, conflict can lead to behavioral problems, abuse of alcohol or other substances, difficulty establishing and sustaining close relationships, and a loss of vision or purpose for one's life. Psychotherapy becomes the process from which a person uncovers conflict, explores barriers, identifies options, and pursues paths of change.

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.
