Our professional relationship needs to be a collaborative and connecting experience. Your input and feedback are essential ingredients in getting where you want to go while my job is to understand your goals and needs and observe which methods might work best for you. I am a seasoned, ethical psychologist with 30 years of experience. My clients vary from young adults to elders. Some seek life coaching or a consultation for a specific problem while others are in distress and want major changes.

A great thing about therapy is having someone who is really on your side as you figure yourself out. It's hard to get started, but it's really worth it when you do. Anxiety and trauma bring so much misery. Believe it or not, our emotions are supposed to help us. When our thoughts and emotions work together, it is awesome. We know who we are. We have a sense of calm and purpose. We feel competent and effective. But emotions work from a different set of rules than thoughts. If we don't understand those rules, our emotions work against us. We feel things we do not want to feel, and we want to feel things that we don't. This can change.

Life is short. If your life doesn't look the way you want, NOW is the time to change. For almost a decade, I have helped clients bring their lives into line with their goals. Being a therapist isn't just about giving a listening ear. It's knowing what to listen for and what to do with that information. It's understanding how the mind, body and soul work together and how we get stuck at certain points. Therapy is focusing that knowledge to create change. Change is a skill and therapy is the place you learn it.

They say time heals all wounds; this simply is not true. Unresolved trauma isn't left in the past where or when you might have experienced it. It sticks with us everywhere we go in the form of sadness, anxiety or possibly anger. Just as if we were physically injured in a car accident or maybe a slip and fall we would see a physician so that our bodies may heal properly. The same approach is needed when dealing with emotional pain (trauma). You need a therapist to work alongside you so the trauma may begin to heal. That is where I come in…..

You're probably feeling lost and lacking the motivation to achieve your goals. Perhaps you're struggling with your self worth, identity, or maintaining healthy relationships. You’ve heard therapy can help, but you aren’t sure where to start or how to fit this into your busy life. It can be difficult to find an inclusive & affirming therapist that aligns with your worldview and understands the lived experiences of LGBTQ+ and BIPOC folks. If this is starting to sound familiar, you just might be in the right place!

Self-understanding is a crucial aspect of emotional health and a major goal for psychotherapy. Building insight into the way in which we view and engage with ourselves and the world around us provides a road map to use when navigating all aspects of life. Through therapy, I aim to increase one’s sense of who they are, what they want, and what is getting in the way. With these efforts, people often find that their distress diminishes, mood increases, and meaning and purpose in life becomes clearer.

"No mud. No lotus" - Thich Nhat Hanh. It is my belief that therapy is a transformative journey of self discovery, personal awakening, empowerment, and healing. As a therapist, I seek to guide clients towards personal fulfillment and self discovery. Often times we face struggles and hardship without any guidance or support. People also may never learn how to recover from the blows that life will inevitably deal to us all. However, It is my goal to help clients find meaning in their struggle and a sense of personal victory in their efforts to overcome them.

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.
