Starting my career in 1993, I have worked with individuals from all walks of life. I believe that at the core of every human being is the desire for growth and self-discovery. We are each born unique, and yet we spend our lives being told by others how to live and behave like everyone else. Over time, the process of forgetting the authentic self leads one to experience emotional distress that is uniquely personal. Whether dealing with life changes, relationship issues, or disabling mental illness, working with a competent psychotherapist can facilitate the process of overcoming obstacles and developing a more fulfilling life.

Being parents, raising a teen, and growing up can be difficult. We all know what it was like being a teenager, and maybe now you're here because you're experiencing what it's like to raise a teenager. While some of the emotions we run into parenting or being a teen hasn't changed, the world has certainly thrown us some curveballs over the past few years. This has left parents having to cope with new challenges that are harder to navigate than what many of us experienced growing up ourselves.

The human experience is not something that always works based on logic. Our brains are wonderful tools that can occasionally get stuck in a survival mode that leaves us feeling helpless and terrified. We can become stuck logical loops, anxious cycles, helpless before the fear of the unknown, or in a dark depression that stops us from continuing our previous goals and fun hobbies. Our past can be a reason for this. Sometimes it might be recent events at just the wrong time. It can even be a combination of small things that seemed to always shift never going away.

Not accepting new clients
As a man in our society, I understand that we can often feel trapped because our concerns can be hard to acknowledge or share.
Life is complex, and it can also be overwhelming. You may feel stuck, or as if you are caught between two, or more, strong forces pulling you in different directions. I believe therapy can be a potent, collaborative process in which we can work together to untangle the different components of your concerns, to sit in tension with these components without becoming overwhelmed, and to restore peace in your life. I enjoy working with all issues affected by social identities, such as gender and sexuality, and I specialize in men's issues.

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.
