My Services
I specialize in child and adolescent therapy, treating children age 5 and up. I provide individual therapy, as well as integrated family therapy and conjoint therapy for siblings. Although I specialize in working with children and adolescents, I also treat college-aged students and adults. I possess training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Family Therapy, and Play Therapy. I also offer HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions for a number of issues. Please contact me for details.
Although I thoroughly enjoy individual psychotherapy, I also realize the value of family sessions and try to incorporate family work as needed. The feedback I tend to most consistently receive from clients centers around my effectiveness, responsiveness, professional ethics, and personalized quality care.
I find that being a male therapist who has specialty training with children and adolescents is rare. Unlike some child therapists, I have also attained formal play therapy training. Over the past 30 years, I feel that I have acquired a breadth of experience and knowledge that speaks for itself.
Among other diagnoses, I am highly experienced in treating Anxiety Disorders, Bipolar Disorder, Major Depression, AD/HD, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and working with child and adolescent victims of sexual abuse. I am also very effective in aiding with divorce-related issues, self-injurious behavior, and general parenting issues.
I am also available for professional supervision and to speak at professional or parenting functions. For more information, please call (805) 778-1060.
