Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
I work with cismen, transmen and masc non-binary people to support their work understanding themselves and their relationships. I enjoy creating an open and reflective space for clients to define their version of masculinity. Topic such as cultural expectation, sexual performance issues and sexual history often come up in these conversations.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
You were taught to handle things on your own. Push through. Don't complain. Provide. And maybe that worked for a while, but now something's off. The anger that flares too fast. The numbness that's settled in. The sense that you're going through the motions but not really present in your own life. Asking for help can feel like failure when you've been told your whole life that needing help is weakness. It's not. It takes more strength to look at what's not working than to keep pretending everything's fine. We offer a space where you can be honest without judgment. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
For many complicated reasons cultural, historical and personal reasons, men often have a more difficult time getting into contact with and expressing emotions beyond pride, self-reliance and sometimes anger. Michael creates a space for men to move beyond these blocks, exploring the fuller range of feelings and thoughts below the surface. The therapy relationship can be a safe place for this opening up or unfolding to occur.
With over 35 years of experience, Michael helps men navigate the specific complexities of modern masculinity, including the transition into fatherhood, the weight of professional expectations, and the impact of mid-life transitions. A key area he has worked with men on, which can be rich and rewarding and produce inter-generational change, is the father-son relationship, whatever the age of the father-son dyad. By moving past stoicism, he provides a collaborative environment to address issues like performance anxiety, emotional "numbing," and relational conflict. The goal is to help men build a life that is not just successful on paper, but deeply satisfying and authentic in practice and that holds the full range of emotional experience.

Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Men’s mental health often goes unnoticed, tucked away beneath the surface of stoic facades, as societal norms pressure many to hide their struggles and soldier on in silence. This silence can deepen the isolation, making it harder to reach out for help or even acknowledge the need for it, compounding stress, depression, and anxiety. My men’s mental health services provide a confidential, judgment-free zone where you can express vulnerabilities, learn coping strategies, and build resilience, encouraging a healthier, open dialogue about mental well-being.

Renee Woodall
Psychologist, Ph.D.
For many men, midlife or retirement can bring questions that are hard to talk about—Who am I now? What matters most? What’s next? You may feel pressure to hold it all together, even when something inside feels unsettled, anxious, or off track. Sometimes relationships start to feel strained or distant, or life simply isn’t turning out the way you thought it would. You might notice frustration, disappointment, or a quiet sense of disillusionment creeping in. Therapy can be a space to step back, breathe, and make sense of what’s been happening—without judgment or pressure. Together, we’ll look at what’s working, what’s not, and what you want life to look like moving forward. As you begin to attend to your emotional wellbeing, you can find more clarity, steadiness, and direction. Whether you’re navigating changes in career, identity, or relationships—or simply wanting to feel more grounded and content—you can rediscover balance, purpose, and enjoyment in the life you’re living now.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
In many societies and cultures, men have been conditioned to believe that voicing or showing their emotions equates to a lack of control or power. In other words, men have come to expect that when they authentically display their emotions, they must be weak or something must be “wrong.” Largely, this is due to very real social pressures and repercussions where boys, teens, and adult men are shamed by being bullied, targeted, or physically hurt. As such, these instances can lead to some men feeling as though they are less masculline or are not fulfilling their expected gender role. Therefore, it is crucial to understand that the way men operate is inherently different from women, not because of their gender, but because their behaviors are a byproduct of a system that has reinforced oftentimes ineffective and/or damaging strategies of emotional display to combat real or imagined shame (i.e., physical violence, aggression, name-calling, shutting down, etc.). Instead, what we hope to provide at PCT is a new space in which men are able to safely explore themselves without fear of judgment. Thus, leading to the understanding that a man’s emotional responses to internal and external experiences are a human process, not one that is solely based on gender or gender role expectations.
More often than not, when men enter therapy, much of the work centers around learning how and why they learned to cope with difficult thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Most importantly, though, men are given a space to authentically “be” in a way that society does not always permit. They are able to speak without fear of judgment and think with a renowned sense of emotional awareness. It is this process that ultimately brings men the most fulfillment in their relationships. When we teach men that they are allowed to feel and communicate the emotions that are inherent to every human being, we give them the tools to see a world that they did not previously have access to. In other words, therapy gives men the permission to be the fullest version of themselves for themselves and for those around them.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I support men in navigating the demands they carry and the expectations they live with, easing distress and strengthening a more grounded way of living. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface, give language to what is hard to carry, and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less isolation and reactivity, more choice and steadiness, and a way of being strong that feels honest and connected.

Men often face unique pressures to be strong, self-reliant, and emotionally reserved, making it difficult to ask for help when life becomes overwhelming. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where men can openly address challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, anger, work-related pressures, fatherhood, life transitions, and questions of identity and purpose. From an Adlerian perspective, counseling focuses on encouragement, resilience, and developing healthier ways of relating to yourself and others. My goal is to help you move beyond simply coping with life's demands toward living with greater confidence, stronger relationships, and a renewed sense of meaning and direction.

Salvadore Coaching LLC
Life Coach, Holistic Life Coach, Certified Breathwork Instructor, Certified Hypnotist
I work with men navigating shifting expectations—at work, in relationships, and in how they understand strength, responsibility, and connection in a changing culture. For many, this shows up as stress, anxiety, irritability, shutdown, self-doubt, or a sense of drifting from purpose. Our work focuses on meeting this moment from a place of steadiness and self-respect—so you can respond from your values rather than from cultural scripts.
Together, we build emotional resilience and practical skills for communication, boundaries, and self-trust. We do this to help you access a stronger, more flexible version of yourself: grounded under pressure, clear in your values, and capable of real intimacy and leadership in your life.
