Men's Issues Therapists in Lake Geneva, WI
Psychotherapy is a lot like gardening. Even a small plot will add beauty and harmony to life, for the process of gardening is just as rewarding as the size of the crop.
Generally, deeper tilling leads to better results: roots reach deeper into sources of nurturance, and are better protected from the stresses of heat, cold and drought.
In a crisis, chemical treatments may be helpful, but be cautious: they may reduce the garden's natural resilience and carry the risk of dependence; they should be used judiciously and withdrawn as soon as possible.

Having extensive experience and clinical supervision with adolescent and adults in various health settings, I have come to appreciate the uniqueness of each person and the journey they are on to wellness. I am non-judgmental and don't feel it is necessary to shame or parent those I work with. In addition to being a psychologist, I am also a college professor, working with students pursuing master and doctorate degrees and a clinical supervisor. These unique perspective allows me to stay on the cutting edge of research and therapeutic approaches to a variety of issues. I am not a corporate or large for profit practice.

Are you experiencing issues in your personal life, problems in your relationships, points of contention with your co-parent or concerns for your children?

It's hard for most people to ask for help. I get that. But I am of the belief that there are two categories of people: those who could be helped by therapy and those who actually go out and try it. So, if you are stepping out, asking for help, and giving therapy a try - good for you for taking a risk. My goal right off the bat is to build trust with my clients. Regardless of the issue at hand, I believe the most important and powerful tool is to have a trusted relationship in your corner.

As a counselor, I'm a good fit for people who would describe themselves as intense, self-conscious, sensitive, and who tend to spend a lot of time "in their head." I'm drawn to working with people who tend to struggle with issues like depression, perfectionism, feeling inadequate, social anxiety, self-doubt, low motivation, and lack of purpose in life. I am interested in both the challenges (and gifts) that come with high sensitivity and offer an approach to therapy that is respectful of both.

As a psychologist, professional counselor, clinical substance abuse counselor, and music therapist, I have learned how much I enjoy working with people to help them overcome obstacles, develop techniques for them to live within the range of their personal capabilities, as well as pursue activities to complement and strengthen personal talents. I view the therapeutic alliance as one of the most complex and rewarding tools when working within the therapy setting. My two careers dovetail to give me the best opportunities to present clients with both traditional and non-traditional methods of working towards a lifestyle that is healthy.

You still might not be sure how therapy helps. Especially with a “psychologist” who uses “air quotes” so “unnecessarily.” You might not trust someone who you think "wants to fix” you. I get it. But therapy is your space. You get to use it however you please.

Men's Issues Therapists
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
