Straightforward, no nonsense approach to psychotherapy without a lot of psychobabble. Helping men deal with depression and anxiety even if they are experiencing outward success. Learning to deal with the inevitable pain and suffering of living when it is not something we normally share with those around us.

I view therapy as being invited to explore ourselves in a welcoming way with someone with kindness who shares knowledge about how we function as humans, so we can gain an understanding for how we have functioned, what we need to thrive, and then thrive. This is self-worth and mastery. And with it comes our being more loving toward toward others and toward ourselves.

Many difficulties stem from our relationships, with both ourselves and others. My work with men is direct, yet warm, empathetic, & understanding. Together we navigate how to process the blocks obstructing your view & ability to move forward. We will explore life events from the past, as behavior patterns emerge in the here-and-now. As this self-awareness develops, clients can lead more joyful & connected lives. I cater sessions to each unique individual using real-life examples & the material you provide to deepen your own understanding of YOU. Complimentary consultation visit is available to all prospective clients. AJ is employed & supervised by Marina Chatterton, LCSW #26126

Video game counseling is a novel approach that uses video games in counseling sessions to help closed-off clients express themselves. Video game counseling is a more immersive, artistic, and creative medium for clients to build skills and process their difficulties. I also help gamers stuck in their life to gain control over their video game habits and fulfill their other life ambitions.

Being a man never came with a manual. No sense of direction led to feeling lost, confused, stressed, not understood, and even angry. You just want to feel heard by someone who gets it, while taking impactful steps to create the life you’ve wanted for so long.

I coach and mentor you to create the masculinity you seek. I make therapy a space to workshop new perspectives, and forge newfound resiliency. I lead a path to find strength in compassion, kindness, and composure.

I know how hard it is, as a man, to admit you need help. Even more so to ask for it. I won’t judge or criticize. You can thrive with a men’s issues therapist who wants nothing more than to help you be all that you can, and more.
