Years ago, I use to think 'Counseling is for birds! I assumed, erroneously, only ‘truly disturbed' people needed a counselor. Boy was I wrong! When I went through a difficult time in my life, I realized I needed some guidance. I found a counselor who helped me discover answers I needed for my journey. Along my way, I came to realize, everyone, now and then, may find themselves in a tough spot and need some guidance. It's not an admission of weakness. It's the recognition that at times, we alone don't have all the answers. Counseling can help and I welcome the opportunity to join you on your healing journey to wholeness.

Throughout my life, I have had an abundance of experiences that contributed to my decision to become a professional counselor. They have instilled in me a passionate belief that everyone’s path, with all of their suffering and joy, have immense value and helping others discover hope is invaluable. As a teacher and athletic coach, I experienced the transformational power of a caring adult in the lives of adolescents and became a school counselor in order help more kids. My life has led to a journey of hope, and I am passionate about helping others transform their path of suffering to a similar journey of hope.

You are struggling with loneliness, insecurity, and building relationships. The desire to connect is there and because of anxiety about being too vulnerable with people, it becomes too risky; it feels like your safety and comfort is at stake. The cycle of wanting more connection, yet being uncomfortable with deeper connection takes its toll on you. Symptoms like depression, irritability, isolation, and low self-esteem can creep in and negatively affect your productivity, sleep, and physical health.

My greatest reward professionally occurs when someone is set free from their doubts and regains their confidence. In my 25 years as a licensed professional counselor, I still share the feeling of pride when we walk through to a sense of security together. I've named my counseling practice "Serenity" because I believe that adversity will always interfere with our plans, and it's our challenge to meet these complications with fluidity and acceptance.

In my practice I focus on Freedom - The freedom to love and be loved authentically. In life we can be held back by obstacles we can't see as well as by obstacles we can see. I specialize in helping clients working to free themselves from those roadblocks. Successful clients have entered my office asking questions like: "No matter what I say, my spouse hears something different." "Why am I doing this, again?" "I've done everything I know, and not advancing at work," "Why won't these thoughts (fears) leave me alone?"

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.
