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.

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.

More men are turning to therapy. They’re realizing the benefits of having space to connect with their feelings, deepen their relationships, and find greater meaning in life. As they understand themselves better through therapy, many men gain new insights into the ways they were shaped by masculinity, both for good and for ill. Reckoning with how masculine and patriarchal norms have shaped us can help us build on the strengths found in masculinity and reduce the influence of more toxic elements.
I work with male-identified patients of all sexualities and cultural identities. I have particular strengths working with queer men and same-sex male couples. My research and clinical work has focused on the experiences of queer men, especially bisexual men and queer male military Veterans. Some men elect to work specifically on men’s issues from the start of treatment, and others only address issues of masculinity explicitly when relevant in treatment. Regardless, people who struggle with issues related to masculinity would likely benefit from working with a provider specializing in psychotherapy with men.

Mason Boano- Have you (or your son) had trouble relating to a therapist in the past? As men, the world expects us to bottle to our emotions and trauma up; even when we know it’s tearing us apart. You want to be able to express yourself in a healthy way; that doesn’t interfere with your identity as a man in a world that expects you to be strong.
Whether you’re suffering from depression, anxiety, or low-self esteem; together, we can find your middle ground of expressing yourself, and feeling secure.
Call me or email me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation. I’m available most weekday evenings, and Saturday mornings. I always respond same-day.
