Stressed Man Wringing Hands

Real men face what’s blocking their progress, and do something about it.

Let’s figure out what it is.

Online Therapy for men Throughout California

Does it feel like you’ve been “shadow boxing” with a part of yourself that won’t come out and show itself?

You’re doing your best to keep your game face from cracking, but inside things are imploding.

You’re exhausted—physically, emotionally, even spiritually. Nothing really interests or excites you. Honestly, the only feeling that fits is “numb”. 

You keep pushing, hoping that working harder will get you through.  But you’re not sleeping, can’t stop worrying—about everything.  Hopeless thoughts are popping up that shouldn’t be there.  People who love you are worried, and you’re avoiding your friends.  Your diet, frankly, sucks.  You can’t remember the last time you hit the gym—or even took a walk around the block. 

You’re “self-medicating” with whatever usually works—coffee, energy drinks, chocolate, alcohol, weed, some pain meds leftover from an old prescription.  You’re not sure why you can’t pull it together this time, or how much trouble you’re already in.  But it’s not good.    

“How close to the edge are you willing to push it?”


I’m a California psychologist with 30-years experience helping men get their lives back in balance when things have gotten to be too much to handle alone.

Few of my clients ever expected to end up in my office, but they demonstrate what my practice is built on: Real men are strong enough to face the truth about themselves—and accept help when they need it to remove what stands in the way of building a better life.

If you’re one of those men—and what’s worked for you in the past just isn’t cutting it anymore, let’s talk!  I provide a confidential place to sort out what’s not working in your life, clarify what you have the power to change, reinforce skills critical to your success, and support you as you build the confidence you need to make those changes.  

Imagine . . . 

  • No longer fearing you’re about to lose it

  • Looking forward to the opportunities each day brings with the energy to pursue them,

  • Being the person you want to be for those you love,

  • Confident you have the skills you need to handle what life throws at you

  • Not having to force a smile!

Specializing in helping men better understand themselves and make the adjustments needed to regain control of their lives.

  • If you know you’ve experienced something traumatic, and are still getting triggered by a laundry list of reminders, this is likely where we would need to focus first. Learn more

  • Life delivers expected changes and blindsides us with others. Any change can be unwelcome and disturb our balance, sometimes leaving us unsure of how to move on. Learn more.

 It’s possible to get out of the rut you’ve been stuck in and enjoy life again!
