I became a social worker after serving on active duty in the United States Army. I began my career serving children, adolescents, their parents and families, in their home, school and community settings. As my career progressed I began to understand the awesome impact & influence that traumatic experiences have in our lives. It’s remarkable how much power we have to heal ourselves from with-in if we take the time to attend ourselves and our own history. ADHD, anxiety, depression are all symptomatic of and impacted by the experiences we’ve had. How we cope how we make decisions our health are all impacted by our life experience.

Therapy is a collaborative process where one can explore their thoughts, behaviors and emotions and how those can have an impact on our mental health, interpersonal relationships, and overall daily functioning. There is a power in embracing vulnerability and learning to accept oneself and identify areas where one may want to improve to get where they want to be. I enjoy helping my clients to make meaningful connections and navigate the challenges that life tends to throw at us.

The longest journey begins with a single step and I am grateful to walk that path with you.

Areas of practice include mood disorders, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, men's concerns, Autism, and ADHD and cognitive functioning (including testing services).

No one is immune to pain, and I believe everyone needs to learn how to manage the distress that inevitably shows up in our lives.
Everyone feels anxiety. It is a normal hu man emotion, but sometimes anxiety becomes too big and no longer helpful. When anxiety feels burdensome, help and hope are available. I enjoy helping clients handle concerns with anxiety, such as generalized anxiety, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and a range of fears/phobias (needle, blood, heights, animals, etc.). I also have expertise working with clients who are experiencing depression, grief/loss, the unique challenges faced by the queer community, as well as distinct issues encountered by men in general.

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.
