Psychologist, PsyD
I work with a lot of men. Knowing your emotions takes strength and learning to include your emotions into your value-aligned life and relationships takes even more strength. Getting to know your emotions, especially when there is pain involved, often times takes being able to share about them with someone else. Therapy is a relationship that is a safe enough place to begin to know yourself and your emotions better, to help you more actively choose the life you want instead of being compelled by your emotions, whether that is through not knowing them, being overwhelmed, or having them play out in painful, sometimes subtle ways in relationships.

James Foley Sexual Misbehavior, Infidelity , Expert 26 Years Experience
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, SOTS,
Being men are more "permitted" by our toxic culture to act out sexually... than to cry, to ask for help, to say "I don't know", to say they are "stuck", or admit defeat, I have many clients appear in sexual misbehavior treatment who seem to have been "acting out" their feelings sexually, under the behavior are feelings that they are not "permitted" by our culture to talk out verbally.
If you would like an insightful and skilled clinician to help you, or your partner, peel the layers of the onion and figure out a way to process the issue and end the acting out of these feeling and have the feelings talked out, then give me a call.

Adam Luke M.A. LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
There is no greater joy as a therapist than when I sit with someone and watch them have their “Ah-HA!” moment; it’s when our groundwork clicks and that light bulb turns on for a client. It is in that moment that many things can change for a person. That light can finally be the end of toxic internal narratives, that moment can be someone realizing they are worth more than the worst things they have experienced in life. It can be in that moment a person grabs ahold of their passions and steps out of the ambiguity of life cloaked in purpose.
As a therapist I believe that men are born to lead, to love whole-heartedly, to be emotionally intelligent, able to cherish intimate relationships, and able to build a life founded in integrity.
