I work primarily with men (and couples) navigating relationship distress, intimacy issues, broken trust, and sexual health. Men's issues, sexual health, couples counseling, work/life stress, separation contemplation, anger, addictive behaviors, and purpose-mapping are a few core issues I resolve with my clients.
Emotional disturbance (anxiety, depression, confusion, etc) manifests when you fail to confidently and honestly live your life with meaningful purpose and positive action. Low esteem, lack of confidence, little motivation, and chronic worry all negatively impact your relationship to self and others creating symptoms that can spiral downward. We will arrest any potential spiral and redirect its energy upward through cognitive behavioral therapy, action methods, and goal-orientation.
I am solution-driven. We will discover the cause of your problem (within 1-3 sessions), identify your desired outcomes, outline a personal action plan to get you where you want to be, and work on the emotional barriers that block your way in realizing your successful outcomes.
Dialectical Therapy is useful but often falls short ("Talk is cheap") which is why some men don't find psychotherapy useful. However, my interventions holistically combined talk, Gestalt, CBT, and experiential therapies to remove emotional barriers that mere talk therapies cannot. We will know results, not just talk about them.
