Being hu man can be difficult and we all need support at times.
I am passionate about helping individuals and couples of all genders and sexual orientations improve their sexual health and sexual relationships. I help clients explore the meaning of sex, find greater sexual pleasure, and address sexual problems. I also work with out-of-control sexual behavior (OCSB), sometimes called sexual compulsions or sexual addictions. This includes navigating moral, religious, and erotic conflicts around sexuality.

“I feel lost”… “I feel like I don’t belong”… “I feel like life is too complex”… "I feel disconnected with myself"... “I’m not who I want to be or who I expected to become”… “I feel stuck in a life that I don’t recognize anymore”… There appears to be a rising recognition of the change and complexity of life in the world today. Attributes that once appeared to be strengths are now often overwhelming and underappreciated. At the root of it all is trauma, which breathes into this life disconnect and isolation.

It’s difficult not to have the complexities of our lives take a toll on our mental health. Grief, loss, addiction, and trauma are all part of my story. However, the stories we believe to be true of ourselves and others are capable of being rewritten. The important factor is identifying through discovery and support of how YOU are the author.Therapy isn't as much learning skills to overcome mental health issues as it is unlearning carried shame, guilt, and negative beliefs to become an emboldened you.

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.
