Therapy is a great tool to use during difficult times, and I honor the courage it takes to start. For many, pursuing therapy is an important step on an ongoing journey of self-knowledge, healing, and growth. I help clients feel more empowered by learning about themselves, developing new ways to cope through personal challenges, and finding confidence to navigate future hardships independently with the knowledge and skills we build together. My approach to therapy is highly collaborative and patient centered. Working together we determine your goals and the best treatment approach for your specific needs.

I am a Master's level psychotherapist with experience conducting group, individual and family therapy. I have worked with families, at risk youth, juvenile sex offenders and youth in "out of home placements". My approach to therapy has an emphasis on providing my clients with a safe, judgment free environment to work on uncovering their best self. I strive to help individuals who struggle with interpersonal skills, assertiveness, adjustment disorders, anxiety and depression. I know the difficulty and cultural insensitivity people of color can sometimes encounter when navigating health systems and would like to offer an alternative.

Over the past twelve years I have worked in the mental health field in a variety of capacities, including inpatient units, residential facilities, and day treatment settings. My experience and training with adolescents, adults, and families in these settings has given me a practical knowledge and understanding when working alongside my clients to facilitate change. A significant part of my experience has been working with adults and adolescents coping with past trauma to adjust and move past stuck points, decrease depression, and move forward on the life they want to live.

Are you an adult struggling to be at your best at home, work, and w/ friends? Can you tell something's off but feel stuck or can’t put your finger on it? Maybe it’s stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, or using substances to self-medicate? Let me guess - you want to talk about it but don’t know where to turn and don't want to be judged? You're not alone. Many adults try “white-knuckling” it and play tug-a-war w/ themselves until they burn out. Look no further. I am here for you. As a man, father, and person who stutters, I bring a unique and sensitive perspective to learn about you, what makes you tick, and your goals.

Making impactful, long-lasting change can be difficult. Draining mental health symptoms, substance use, and trauma can contribute to making positive lasting change feel like an impossible and daunting task. I understand the importance of wanting to find that immediate relief, as well as identifying and treating the root of the problem. An essential part of our work is exploring the past and making connections between the past and present. I enjoy getting to know my clients as individuals, assisting them in their journey of learning about themselves, and helping them learn the skills they need to live a more meaningful life.

Ugh!!! Yep, most of us get to this point before we reach out for help. I'm glad you're here and ready to make a change. Major life transitions, even the great ones, can leave us feeling unraveled, and at times can lead to feelings of depression, anxiety, and other mental heath conditions. I work with those who need support and encouragement as they navigate these difficult times.

Therapy provides us the opportunity for greater self-discovery and deepened self-understanding. The person I enjoy working with is someone who is genuinely curious about what makes them tick, why they make choices that sink their dreams or sabotage the relationships important to them; but who are also wanting to know their strengths and talents so they can embrace and use them more effectively.

Since 1980 I have served those struggling with mental illness and personal problems in greater Milwaukee. I mainly help adults and older adults individually. Common topics I treat include depression, bipolar disorder, codependency, abuse, worry, grieving, chronic pain and health issues, and generally dealing with changes. Many I see experienced a long slow decline over time when that, "Straw that Broke the Camel's Back," landed. It became clear that things were just not working, and they need to try something different. That's when many of my people called me.

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.
