In working with children and adolescents (ages 5-17) you accept the responsibility of meeting with a population who may not have consented to therapy. Although guardians act within the child's best interest, the intervention may not be something the adolescent supports at the time. With this understanding, my primary goal is to simply connect regardless of who walks through that door. Progress cannot occur without a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. To ensure this result, I rely on genuineness and transparency with the client. My extensive experience, both as a School Counselor and Therapist, lead my counseling direction

The secret to a satisfying life is found in the experience of loving relationships and gratifying work. Sometimes, life's challenges interfere with our relationships and careers, and prevent us from experiencing the joy that life can offer. The challenges that led you to this page - depression, anxiety, addictions, grief and loss, career dissatisfaction - may be affecting your work or relationships. You want to advance in your career, feel more connected to your partner or family, or move beyond the hurts of the past, but something feels like it is always in the way, no matter how hard you've tried.

Change can be really, really hard. We can get so stuck in routines and behaviors that prove to be ineffective for us, yet it can be hard to recognize on our own. Therapy is useful in that it allows us to look inward while considering what change is necessary to have a more purposeful, satisfying life.

One minute you’re discussing home upgrades, and the next, you’re shouting about feeling alone and unimportant. The bickering now happens in front of your kids. Asking for the same basic needs has worn you out. You express needs that have become a list of letdowns. When you try and talk with your partner, he either shuts down or explodes. Your partner feels like he can’t do anything right. Rather than talk about your feelings, the focus shifts to how unappreciated your partner feels. There is no resolution in sight. After hours of silent treatment, one of your finally breaks the ice. This pattern is draining your relationship.

In my experience, people often come to therapy because they feel a lack of fulfillment in their lives and in their relationships. Through empathic, non-judgmental listening, I help my clients feel more connected to their feelings and closer to the important people in their lives. I provide a safe, comfortable environment which encourages exploration of feelings and promotes positive change. Though therapy can be scary to start for some people, many find it invigorating and life-changing. Feel free to call or email me, and we can chat about whether therapy would be beneficial.

My ideal clients are those who are experiencing difficulties with blended family issues, adolescent development, trauma, grief and loss, separation and divorce. My role as a therapist is to facilitate a process of healing by partnering with each client. I believe it is essential to listen carefully to an individual, couple or family and develop a partnership that combines my training and experience as a practitioner with each persons unique capacity for healing and growth. Most importantly, the objective of intervention and caring is promoting the family's ability to support the passions and interests that exist in each individual.

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.
