Men’s Issues therapists in Cold Spring, Kentucky KY
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Men often experience themselves, the world, and relationships in some fundamentally different ways than women. Moreover, they're often conditioned to ignore their own emotional experiences and needs. This can result in a great deal of distress that often leave men feeling frustrated and confused. I enjoy teaching men concrete skills for better understanding themselves and their needs, and then effectively express those needs in a way that is more likely to get them met.

Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LCAC, LPC, LPCC
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I offer a specialized and compassionate approach to addressing men’s issues through psychodynamic therapy. My practice uniquely integrates techniques from Gestalt therapy, mindfulness, and experiential methods, creating a supportive and empowering environment where men can explore and address the challenges they face.
Understanding that men often experience unique societal pressures and expectations, my approach focuses on helping men navigate these challenges while fostering emotional resilience and self-awareness. By delving into the unconscious processes that influence thoughts and behaviors, clients gain insight into the root causes of their struggles, whether related to identity, relationships, career stress, or societal expectations.
What sets my practice apart is my commitment to creating a genuine therapeutic connection and promoting present-moment awareness. I emphasize the importance of a strong, trusting relationship where men feel safe to express their vulnerabilities and explore their emotions. Through this connection, we work together to develop healthy coping mechanisms, improve interpersonal relationships, and build a stronger sense of self.
At Dynamic Growth Counseling LLC, I tailor each treatment plan to the specific needs of my male clients, ensuring they receive the most relevant and effective care. By integrating psychodynamic principles with experiential techniques, I help men transform their struggles into opportunities for personal growth and empowerment.
You will find a dedicated partner in your journey toward emotional well-being and personal fulfillment. Together, we will work to overcome the unique challenges you face, empower you with the tools and insights needed for lasting change, and guide you toward a future filled with confidence and purpose.

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Men face many challenges in reaching out for help and seeking therapy. Men are more likely to tell others they are fine out of fear and concern of being judged or viewed as weak. Men may also want to avoid feeling like a burden to loved ones, friends, and family. Men can minimize or not recognize their own challenges or difficulties which can result in them bottling up or avoidance. Men are often more likely to externalize emotional pain or mental health issues by showing anger and engaging in high-risk behaviors. All of these factors can negatively impact the mental health and well-being of men. It doesn't have to be like this. Therapy can help you find better ways to cope with the difficulties in your life.

Men's issues have often been overlooked. "We have problems too!" is often something I hear and agree with.

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.
