Trauma Therapy For Men

Trauma can continue to haunt you even after it’s over. If you’re experiencing flashbacks, nightmares, or unwanted memories, counseling can help.

Anxiety Therapy For Men

Anxiety can make it difficult to show up for your friends, family, and career. Therapy can equip you with skills to manage your anxiety more effectively.

Sexual Abuse Therapy For Men

Male sexual abuse often goes unrecognized, but research estimates that up to 1 in 6 men will experience sexual violence at some point in their lives.

EMDR Therapy For Men

EMDR is an evidence-based treatment for PTSD. It activates the brain’s natural ability to heal from trauma using a technique called “bilateral stimulation.”

Accelerated Resolution Therapy

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) has been shown to resolve PTSD in 1-5 sessions. With ART, you keep the knowledge of your trauma but lose the pain.

Trauma Therapy For Veterans and First Responders

Data suggests that over half of first responders and a third of veterans suffer from PTSD. Trauma therapy can keep you in your career longer, help you show up for your family, and reduce the severity of your PTSD.

OCD Therapy For Men

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) attacks what we care about most. Thankfully, it’s very treatable using exposure and response prevention (ERP).

I offer a free 15-minute consultation to all prospective clients.
