Does this sound familiar? "I will never be good enough." It’s easy to feel that way if you’ve been repeating the same unhelpful thoughts and behaviors for years. The good thing about thoughts and behaviors is that they can change if you let them. I do believe we’re all doing our best, but sometimes we don't know how to let go of judgement or regret, whether it’s in our relationships, jobs, or in our way of thinking about ourselves. We all want a full life—one not ruled by regret from the past or by fear of the future. We have to lay down the burden of the "what if’s" and "should I" so that we can move forward more freely.

Each of us shapes and is shaped by the relationships we have with others, with our bodies, with our stories, with our cultures, and with our worlds. We find ourselves here and now because of where we’ve been and what has happened, because of how we carry our experiences forward and how they have made us. I am awed by the creative resilience with which we integrate or shoulder the burdens we’ve felt. I find astonishing and courageous the ways in which we not only survive, but find ways to thrive, to express ourselves, and live into the fullness of hu man experience despite those things that have hurt us and that hurt us now.

My areas of skill and experience include helping couples restore love and connection in their relationship and coaching men who are seeking to establish more meaningful personal and professional relationships.
My work as a therapist is based on a conviction that our choices and relationship patterns are fueled by our need to experience wholeness and heal the brokenness of our past. This concept lies at the core of attachment theory and is a powerful tool for helping us understand why we struggle with others and with our own internal critic. In my therapeutic work, I leverage aspects of Imago, Solution-focused, and Internal Family theories to help clients progress towards deeper and more meaningful connections with themselves and others.

Feeling frustrated and confused about being in the same place, again! Life was going along smoothly and then, out of nowhere life feels punishing. Barely sleeping, anxious/depressed, feeling angry, sad, and confused because even the time at home feels miserable. Your relationship is struggling, and you can’t wait to get away for the day but you also know that when you aren’t distracted, the anxious and depressed feelings are still overwhelming no matter where you go. There is still part of you that knows the past is interfering with your ability to find peace. Life can be good but you can’t seem to figure out how to get there.

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.
