No two people are alike and the same can be said of therapists. Creating an empathetic, nonjudgmental and collaborative space for growth and healing is my primary objective as a therapist. Who you are and what you have experienced is unique, and your path to understanding will be, too. That is why I believe that establishing a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients is a key part of treatment. Such a relationship is essential, as it is often the first setting in which the person receiving treatment shares intimate thoughts, beliefs, and emotions regarding the issue(s) in question.

Change is difficult, and often unavoidable. I work with people who are looking to overcome the obstacles in their lives. Everyone needs growth, and often the greatest opportunities are found in the greatest of challenges. Though we cannot always choose what happens to us, we can always exercise self awareness and decide how we are going to move forward. It is when we disengage from our struggles and the need to move past them that we cease to make conscious decisions. My clients come to therapy looking for their own unique transformation. It is my great privilege to assist them in making it happen.

Much of my work is done with clients who are looking to grow from the many unfortunate events that have happened in their lives. I do believe that traumatic situations can destroy a person if they remain a victim. But if they are willing to do the hard work of turning that pain into power, then their situation didn't occur in vain. That is why I am both analytical and an action oriented and caring therapist.

Starting the therapeutic process can feel overwhelming & daunting. Finding the right fit takes time and effort, with the possibility of disappointment. With so much uncertainty the process can feel frustrating & hopeless ,but taking the first step to meet with a clinician to have a conversation and get a sense of their personality and clinical style can alleviate the anxiety behind the unknown & endless "what if " questions you may have. Some issues I have been able to help clients with are: relationship problems, anxiety, grief, depression, life transitions, developing healthy coping strategies, & overcoming past trauma(s).

However, doing this exploration together with a dedicated therapist can show us new perspectives and foster growth. I approach this process with an appreciation for the ways in which you’ve navigated life so far and understanding that not everything needs to be abandoned, after all, you’re here! Instead, we look at how you can evolve into the best version of yourself and your life right now. Working together, I believe we can accomplish the change you’re looking for!

Most people solve most problems on their own or with help from friends, but that doesn’t always work. Troubles mount up. Upheavals catch you unawares. “Go to” solutions can leave you empty-handed. Even planned changes can be disorienting - new jobs, retirement, new relationships, going off to school, children leaving home. Sometimes people just need help coping, changing bad habits, or thinking through options. Other times people feel hemmed in by circumstances, or find they don’t recognize themselves in the life they lead and want to deepen their sense that the life they are living reflects their own values and choices.

I have over thirty years of clinical experience and I strongly believe in the resiliency of the human spirit; the ability for a person to heal and grow given the right kind of nurturing and support. I have witnessed this countless times in many different settings in my professional life. My experience has largely been, though not exclusively, working with men as I have worked in the field of HIV/AIDS for a number of years. I focused on men’s' issues in my graduate work and that, in combination with years of practice, have allowed me a particular insight with regard to working with men and their presenting issues in therapy.

Not feeling like yourself? Feeling stuck? Need someone to talk to? At some point in life, we all feel like that and is part of human nature. Going to a therapist when you're feeling overwhelmed should be as normal as going to the doctor when you a have the flu. For that reason, I think the most important aspect of the therapeutic process is creating a safe and non-judgmental place where you can focus on yourself and your wellbeing. I use a wholistic and eclectic approach focusing on you as a person, your strengths, and what you want to achieve with therapy. Are you ready to focus on yourself and your wellbeing?
