Ultimately, I am guided by the belief that we are all living stories testifying to the resiliency of the hu man spirit.
Helping people begin to show up in their own lives, sometimes after years of disconnection, is one of my greatest passions and privileges. That passion has led me to the study of trauma and addiction because of the role each play in disconnecting us from ourselves and those around us. Trauma can include everything from life-threatening events to the sometimes more subtle experiences of woundedness that can occur through ordinary family and social interactions across a lifetime. Gerald May says that addiction can be anything that “bonds and enslaves the energy of desire to certain specific behaviors, things, or people".

I have worked with marriages, families and individuals for nearly two decades in various capacities and have been practicing as a Graduate trained therapist since 2016. I am of the opinion that most people are NOT mentally ill, rather they are emotionally or behaviorally stuck in a pattern that is creating dissatisfaction or discomfort in living which is often the result of a difficult experience.

I'm also trained in the Gott man level 1 therapy, to help couples resolve problems.
If you feel that life is almost unbearable, or that a personal crisis has made it worse, and you would like it to be better, I'd like to help you. Maybe you would just like to change the trajectory of your life, because the stress, anxiety, and depressive feelings you're experiencing is not normal. Know this, your life is important, it always is. Your mental health is also important, now more than ever. I can help you learn to manage the negative emotions you are experiencing. I will help you find solutions to the anxiety, anger, depression, life's failures, relationship and marriage problems, of a stressed out life.

We don't always expect what life may throw in our direction. Sometimes, even what we would consider a positive change can stress or burden us in ways that make it difficult to feel like ourselves or function at our best. This can result in feeling depressed, anxious, hopeless about the future, or even paralyzed. Relationships change; death, major illness, or relationships ending can contribute to difficulty in living life the way we would like. I work best with individuals suffering from anxiety-related issues, regardless of gender, and those who are struggling with life transitions.

All of us, at some point in our lives, are going to experience a significant emotional struggle. Whether individual or relational, we all encounter sometimes brief, sometimes longer, periods where our struggle may begin to feel overwhelming. My practice is founded on treating clients with a comprehensive psychosocial approach. Most individuals realize medication can temporarily retard the progress of symptoms through symptom reduction. Alone, medication cannot resolve the personal issues associated with long term increases in quality of life. I believe my best professional strengths are an abiding respect for the individual coming into my office, and a reliable resource to explore, educate and inform persons about critical life issues.

Ive advocated for abused children and medically vulnerable individuals for over 13 years providing case management services for the economically disadvantaged.
I believe the therapeutic relationship can be both healing and empowering for individuals. I use a cognitive behavioral, strength-based approach to alleviate the effects of trauma and assist individuals to reaching their goal. As we go through life, we must learn to navigate through traumatic events such as the impact of life-threatening illnesses, childhood abuse, and other traumatic occurrences. Often traumatic experiences change our way of life forcing us to define a “New Normal”; I will provide therapeutic support to combat issues such as anxiety, depression, frustration, and trauma.

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.
