Perfor mance Enhancement Expertise for Athletes is based on tried and true methods that I have used with college and professional athletes in my career.
Life is full of all types of obstacles, but successful people are those who use those obstacles as motivation. The person most likely to benefit from my interventional methods, a combination of Cognitive-Behavioral and Interpersonal Therapy, is motivated to succeed and only needs a little guidance to achieve his/her fullest potential. We take BCBS and Medicare and are out of network on the other panels, but will assist clients with obtaining reimbursements from your carrier, in addition to a sliding fee scale. I am a clinical neuropsychologist, with specific expertise in dementias (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Stroke); ADHD/learning issues; mood/anxiety disorders.

Do you want to take a deep dive into yourself and explore your cultural, social, familial, career, or any other aspects of your identities? Or, perhaps you simply want to figure out why you continue to engage in behaviors that don’t serve you. Better self-awareness of your identities, roles, and personality styles and their impact on your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships can be empowering. And your newly developed insight can help you have more conscious control over your behavior, allowing you to change maladaptive patterns and improve relationships.

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.
