Help For Men Wanting To Live An Authentic and Intentional Life


Hi, I'm Dr. Gunn, a psychologist who specializes in helping adolescent males and men pursuing good mental well-being. I recognize that men face their own distinct set of pressures and expectations. Throughout my career I have seen how helpful and freeing it can be to have a safe and non-judgmental space to explore what you value as a man. My tailored approach acknowledges the diverse experiences of men, offering support for issues such as stress, partner/relationship issues, parenting/family dynamics, career challenges, life transitions, and more.


I bring warmth, compassion, humor, and insight into my work, and I try to help folks learn something new about themselves every session. Click the link below to set up a free consultation where we can talk about what you are needing and how I may be able to help. 


Maybe you have never tried counseling or maybe you have and did not get what you hoped from it. I offer services that are tailored to your needs, whether it be short-term work focused on specific goals, or longer-term work that helps you look deep inside to discover what is really going on so that you can make better choices going forward.
