Change is a process and not an event. Whether you interested in establishing a new relationship to substances, addressing relapse, or have been sober for a while and want to work on underlying issues, I welcome you. I believe that most often substance use is a symptom of underlying issues and people turn to unhealthy behaviors to manage. If these issues are not addressed a person will relapse. I specialize in co-occurring disorders including Trauma, Depression, Bi-polar Disorder, and Anxiety. I have over twenty five years of personal and professional experience in addiction recovery.

Why Therapy? The short answer? Because you're hu man. Me too. And one thing I know about hu mans, is that we all suffer. We all experience pain and have a natural inclination to escape it. And when all of our efforts to escape, avoid, and struggle against our pain prove to be fruitless, we are wise to ask for help. It is only the wise who seek wisdom. So I am deeply honored to meet the wisest of our community, and that is just the way I see you.

You're committed to your partner, but you don't know how to get back the trust and intimacy that has been lost. Communication is either lacking or has broken down into frequent arguments. It would be great if your partner would just understand you and your feelings, but the disconnect you now have is real and it feels like you just continue to drift further apart each day. It seems like your partner is a stranger now and that compatibility and friendship feels like it might be gone for good. This is scary to think that the love of your life, who you once felt a sense of safety and security with, no longer has your back.

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.
