Psychologist, PhD
Many men struggle with finding a safe place to experience emotion or connect deeply with anyone other than a romantic partner. This can create unnecessary stress on relationships or lead to a sense of isolation. Learning to identify and process emotions in a safe space and build strong, connected relationships can help men find connection and peace in today's difficult world.

Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S
Therapy for men's issues, also known as men's counseling or male-focused therapy, is a specialized form of counseling that addresses the challenges and concerns unique to males. It provides men a secure and supportive environment to investigate their emotions, develop coping skills, and manage personal and interpersonal issues.
Counseling for men's issues acknowledges the unique social and cultural expectations that men may face. It aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space for men to explore their concerns and emotions. The therapeutic approach will hinge on the individual's particular requirements and objectives.
Men pursuing therapy must find a therapist who understands and respects their experiences and is adept at addressing men's concerns. Reaching out to a qualified mental health professional with experience working with men's issues can be an essential step toward personal development and well-being if you are experiencing difficulties and could benefit from professional assistance.

Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
It is not uncommon for those of us who have been instilled with the expectation that to be vulnerable is, to some degree, a reflection of weakness. However, to be human is to be inherently vulnerable and the best we can do is to accept this within ourselves and others so that we can continue on in our journey toward living a fulfilling life.
