Teen Therapy and Men’s Issues

Teen Therapy

Welcome! I am a therapist who specializes in teen therapy and men’s issues. My work with teens and young men includes those who are struggling with motivation, anxiety, and life direction because I understand the unique pressures that young men face, from academic stress to finding their purpose. Therefore, I provide tailored services to address these concerns, including depression, difficulty transitioning into adulthood, substance use or behavioral issues (including marijuana use or excessive video gaming).

If your teen is not ready for therapy, I also offer support for parents seeking guidance in managing family conflict and raising teens, helping them rebuild communication and understanding within the family. Fortunately, you have options, each of which have significant research showing that working with a professional therapist can help, regardless if it is you or your teen that is the client.

Men’s Issues

Beyond my work with teens, I specialize in relationship therapy for men. I help men navigate relationship issues, including difficulties in dating/marriage, struggles with communication, and challenges within their relationship. My approach is grounded in understanding the social and emotional pressures men face in their romantic relationships and family roles. Whether it’s finding better connection with a significant other, improving intimacy, or resolving that fight that keeps coming up, I provide strategies to help men achieve healthier, more fulfilling relationships. You no longer have to do this alone.

First Responders

For first responders—police officers to paramedics to firefighters to military—I offer specialized mental health support. I understand the pressures of performance and the stress that comes with balancing work, personal life, and the social expectations of your job. My work focuses on managing stress, safe compartmentalization, responding to trauma, and ensuring you are ready to perform when the time presents itself at work and at home. My experience with this comes from my years of time spent as a co-responder, working alongside police officers on patrol, detectives, paramedics, and firefighters.

Lastly, if you’re in the Colorado and are looking for teen therapy or men’s issues support, I offer telehealth appointments for anyone in the state of Colorado and in person appointments in the DTC area of metro Denver.
