Great to meet you!

I am an experienced therapist who has been in the mental health field for decades. I have a deep respect for the therapeutic process and recognize and appreciate the bravery of those who choose to work with me.

I specialize in working with men. Many men have difficulty with emotional expression, and I provide a supportive and caring setting to develop it. There are some societal norms that men shouldn't be sensitive whereas I view sensitivity as a strength.

I will help you develop your emotional vocabulary. I will help you put words to your feelings. more information available at petermunrolcsw . com

My approach to therapy

I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches, including but certainly not limited to CBT, psychodynamics, and developmental psychology. I am patient, but also motivated to help Clients change to become healthier and more fulfilled in their lives.

In working with men, I have learned to help them navigate difficult life stages. I've helped young men with launching, middle aged men with finding an identity and older men with finding purpose.

What you can expect from me

We will discuss what you would like to work on. I will ask questions so that we can collaboratively create a treatment plan to meet your needs.

We will discuss your sense of self. Who are you? What drives you? What is important to you? What has happened to you that may be holding you back from living the life you want to? How have life experiences affected your sense of self? What messages did you receive as a child that you have internalized?

I have some 4:00-5:00 pm slots on weekdays not listed on my availably on this site. If that time works for you reach out and I can work to accommodate.
