If there is one thing that I’ve learned in my more than fifteen years working as a therapist, it is that life can be rough no matter who you are. And sometimes rough in ways you never thought it could be. How do you handle those rough times? Have the ways you thought would fix the problems not worked or only led to more frustration? I work with individuals and couples feeling lost or unsure of what to do when they experience rough times. Having been through tough times in life myself, I love working with people to help them find the best ways for them to deal with whatever rough patch they may find themselves in.

I have spent my career working with men and women in the midst of crisis, those struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, grief, and anger.
Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone's face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come. -H. Nouwen

Waitlist for new clients
As a counselor and play therapist, I believe that building a strong therapeutic relationship is the basis of all that happens in the therapy room. Healing is not one dimensional, it occurs through growth in the areas of thought patterns, emotional experience, physical health, relational experience, systems we are part of, biology, and spirituality. Looking at the whole person is, in my opinion, the only way to change the behaviors and patterns in our lives, relationships, and in our families. My clinical focus is on helping people get unstuck and find lasting change.

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.
