Jean is experienced in treating issues such as anger management, oppositional defiance disorder, anxiety, depression, sexual deviance, and many others through individual and family counseling.
Our experiences mold us in various ways. If I were to imagine a plant that captures what happens to many of us when faced with challenging and persistent experiences, the CACTUS comes to mind. Like the CACTUS, we develop tougher skin and spikes to protect ourselves from problematic situations. When not processed correctly, the development of these characteristics may detract attention from the other powerful properties we possess. For some, the CACTUS may be the least appealing plant. When given the time to learn about it, you discover that the CACTUS is extremely resilient, powerful, beautiful and filled with wonders.

I provide therapy that is about growth, self-understanding, and becoming the person that you really are. Many of my patients come to see me at times of change or transition in their lives. Some come for help that is focused, specific, and relatively short-term. For example, many anxiety problems and life transition issues are suited to short-term work. I know how important it is for patients to feel heard and understood, by a therapist who is non-judgmental. Outcome research on psychodynamic therapy has shown that therapy sets in motion a process of personal growth that continues to develop even after therapy ends.

We can use many words to try to describe anxiety to friends and loved ones - 'scary,' 'uncomfortable,' 'tense.' However, far too often, there really are no words to describe how terrible it can feel. When anxiety and panic begin to infiltrate your life, it feels nearly impossible to describe to someone who has never experienced it for themselves. It can feel extremely lonely.

We can assure you that our therapists will be genuine, provide you with empathic and professional care, create a safe environment, and will not treat issues or concerns they are not trained to treat. However, you are the only one who can decide if you truly like and trust your therapist. We have six awesome therapists to choose from but, if none of us work, we encourage you to keep looking and find your therapist!

My supportive and thoughtful approach to psychotherapy involves helping clients to take a look at themselves and their choices to determine whether their personal styles are working for them. In this way, clients become more aware of how they relate to others and how to make healthy choices to reduce and better manage stress, improve mood, and enhance relationships. Identifying maladaptive patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving, and making changes in those patterns, helps people to live more rewarding and satisfying lives. Therapy is a process in which people learn to live more adaptively and with more personal fulfillment.

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.
