People don’t change by themselves; they change in relationship to one another. That is what couples therapy is - - it is helping couples/relationships change with the changes. I help couples to develop the skills to talk about issues under stress that are vital to them. Couples therapy becomes effective as you apply new knowledge about yourself, your partner to break ineffective patterns of and develop new ones. Support you identifying the kind of relationship you want to build together. Plus help you get beyond what blocks you from becoming the kind of partner you aspire to be. Applying the knowledge you get from couples therapy.

Using my background in hu man resources, I provide career counseling at $90 or $75 per video session.
Meaningful personal growth and self-efficacy can be realized by any person, couple or family in the face of personal challenges. These can be internal (despair, depression, grief, anger, or anxiety), external (lack of supportive relationships, disharmony), and interactive (blaming, perceptions and reciprocal reactions to each other's behaviors). How well you manage to cope, survive and eventually thrive in the midst of these challenges can be aided by establishing a genuine collaboration with a competent therapist. Teletherapy makes it even easier to select and engage with a licensed counselor who fits your particular needs.

I also utilize the Gott man Method for couples therapy.
I currently have openings in my practice and will contact you the same day. It takes a lot of courage to ask for help and taking the initial step of seeking therapy can be intimating and uncomfortable. I believe it is vital to quickly establish a trusting relationship built on mutual respect for meaningful therapy to take place. Through the practice of evidenced based therapies, I believe that helping clients build on their strengths while incorporating new coping strategies is the key to successful treatment outcomes. I strive to help clients clarify their life values in order to provide a firm foundation for action.

Most patients reach me battle-weary from that process, and many have lost hope.
Not all therapists are able to support you fully when medical or other conditions have caused cognitive decline. This is my specialty. Having worked closely with neurologists, radiologists and many other medical specialties, I can offer you neuropsyc or psych evaluations and brain maps that shed light on problems, and create a treatment plan that really makes a difference. We've helped folks with brain injury or general concerns for cognition, restore memory and attention skills, get to better thinking and reasoning, and enhanced joy in life. I go beyond the limits where others stopped, because rehabilitating brains is my passion.

Have you found yourself feeling stuck or in a slump lately? With everything going on today, on top of your own responsibilities, it can be easy to get lost in the chaos. Therapy should be something that is healing and assists the client in gaining insight. I like to meet the client where they are and fit in where there is a need. If you think of mental health as a life long race, each runner has their own pace. There is never really a finish line because anything can throw someone off at any given moment. It is my goal to equip my clients with the tools to run their race and be prepared to take on any challenges that may arise.

Hi. How are you coping? Life keeps changing so drastically. It doesn't seem real. So many existential questions come to mind, for instance: how will I stay safe?; who's in charge?; what does the future hold? It makes sense that we feel sad, worried or even out of control. This is normal under the circumstances. What gives you joy and peace? What about: sticking to the facts; not panicking; limiting the news; laughter; hobbies; spirituality; loving family, friends and pets to the fullest? Talking to a counselor can also help. I'm available for in-person and virtual sessions. Virtual is convenient, safe and insurance covers it.

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.
