Men’s Issues therapists in Malibu, California CA
Christopher Schamber
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As men, we are often taught to white-knuckle it through our problems and "tough it out." In many families, showing emotion is considered "weakness."
While public awareness of mental health is changing, the stigma around feeling persistent sadness or anxiety is a harsh reality for many men. Our therapy is a safe place to share what's going on. There's no judgment here. We will explore your emotions and how to better understand where they come from. Once we have that solid base of understanding, we will find ways to release those feelings in a healthy way.

Daniel Lazar
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA, MBA
When men struggle with their feelings, it can look different. They may hide their thoughts and emotions, reject therapy, socially isolate, and cope using anger -- because, they've been told, that's how a real man does it. Nonsense. While masculinity has some wonderful aspects, others are toxic to a man's mental health and relationships. I help my clients explore these aspects of masculinity and how they may intersect with other problems, like depression, relationships, addiction, and anger.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
To be a man is to be exposed to perpetual contradiction. So many messages of what a man is, or isn't. Be tough, be gentle, be confident, be humble, take the lead, be a follower... the list goes on and on. Men's issues range the gamut! Let's unlock your true masculine self, the part of you that is graceful, complete, and confident in your power.

COPE Psychological Center
Psychologist, PhD
Societal and cultural messages men receive about mental health can be particularly damaging. Learning a strong emotional vocabulary, feel one's feelings, and communicate effectively are some of the most important things that can be done with anyone, but particularly men.

David Eshleman
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Therapy can be especially difficult for men to open up to. Often times the ideals of communication and vulnerability fly in the face of the "idea" of masculinity that society has historically thrust onto men. I understand that. There is no shame in taking care of your mental health. Think of going to therapy as going to the gym of the mind.

Omer Harari
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I support men in identifying patterns, beliefs, behaviors, "shoulds" and narratives that have contributed to weakened relationships, misplaced anger or loss of joy, feelings of low self-worth, and other challenges. I've helped men cultivate tenderness, foster joy and self-esteem by recovering integrity, matching one's values with actions.
