In all of my years of experience in working with people, I have found that what people most want and need is a safe space to be heard, supported, and understood. It's within that place that people begin to heal. My passion is in helping people find healing at the root cause of their pain. We all have painful experiences. When we can address those areas of pain (which often get reinforced time and time again), we can actually overcome the things that make us feel stuck.

I help individual adults and couples get "unstuck" from the things that hold them back. Anxiety and stress, depression and exhaustion, and relationship difficulties are a few of my specialities, but I really believe people are complex and much more than a label or symptoms. Life is full of curve balls, difficulties, and wonderful experiences that all mix together and influence how we see ourselves and the world around us. Through support, guidance, and challenge, I help clients feel better and enjoy their lives more.

The weekend counseling approach can be more effective than weekly sessions for many couples. The weekend allows a couple to stay focused long enough to make significant progress whatever their challenges may be. It is often just way more convenient when one considers the time it takes getting to and from, time off from work, childcare for weekly sessions.

To do that, we'll work together adopting the same winning mindset that high-perfor mance athletes use to dominate the field.
Does any of this sound familiar? You’re feeling stuck in your professional development, and feel overwhelmed, anxious and stressed by not being able to reach your full potential greatness and leave a legacy. You wonder how you’re going to take your career to the next level and pay for the things your family wants (and needs), and feel like you’re grinding hard but not getting anywhere. You’re secretly a little nervous about the future, and are unsure if you have control over the outcome and direction of your career in achieving your goals. There's times you wish you had someone to talk to about your stress, dreams, goals, etc.

I work from a nonjudgmental model where all are welcome. I help people that are struggling find happiness. My job is to make my job obsolete. I offer the tools to help reach goals, to heal from trauma, deal with pain, beat depression and fix relationships. I don't sell the 50 minutes a week that most therapists give you, I'm selling a practice life. It's not just the time we spend in session, it's also about the time between sessions. I have found that working this way moves the process of therapy forward and catalyzes healing.

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.
