The men I work with often struggle to accurately identify their emotions and articulate their needs, which can lead to difficulty making decisions, asserting themselves, and establishing healthy boundaries in both their professional and personal lives. They build up resentments and then explode in anger or engage in other unhealthy behaviors that ultimately make things worse.

Sometimes they feel numb or zoned out, as if they aren't really present in the moment, and this leads to problems connecting with others or even with themselves. Many feel like their issues are not significant enough to warrant attention, and they may feel guilty asking for help.

Maybe you feel you should be able to manage everything on your own. That's understandable because you’ve got a lot of skills and talents and have already accomplished so much independently. However, it is important to remember that you are human. Most of us do not have all the answers, and sometimes we need to seek the assistance of supportive individuals to help us overcome the obstacles on our journey to becoming whole.

Does any of this sound familiar to you? If so, we might be a good match for therapy. I have extensive experience working with men on a wide range of issues including:

• Relationship, communication, intimacy, infidelity and sexual issues
• Anger, depression, anxiety and difficulty managing emotions
• Feelings of numbness or maladaptive dissociation
• Cultivating healthy masculinity and assertiveness
• Career issues and finding fulfillment
• Veteran's concerns including PTSD and adjustment problems
• Compulsive sexual behavior and other problematic habits
• Issues unique to bisexual, gay and queer-identified men

Feel free to reach out to see if I might be the right therapist for you.
