Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Dr. Jenny Shields isn’t a “men’s therapist.” But a lot of men end up in her office—and stay—because her style just works. She’s direct, honest, and knows how to cut through the noise. No psychobabble. No pressure to bare your soul. Just a steady, grounded space where you can talk things through, figure out what’s not working, and get the kind of support that actually helps.
Many of the men she works with wouldn’t have called themselves “therapy people.” They’re used to solving problems on their own, holding it together, doing what needs to be done. But lately? The stress is constant. The anger shows up out of nowhere. The motivation’s gone. Or maybe life threw something unexpected—a loss, a health scare, a career shift—and suddenly the old ways of coping aren’t cutting it.
Dr. Shields gets it. She blends straight talk with genuine warmth and just the right amount of humor. Her approach is built on trust, practical tools, and real conversation. Using evidence-based therapies like ACT and CBT, she helps men get clear on what matters, get unstuck from what doesn’t, and move forward in a way that feels solid, honest, and fully their own.
This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about giving you room to breathe—and someone you can trust to walk alongside you while you figure out what comes next.

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.

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.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Most men arrive in therapy having spent years inside a definition of masculinity that was never examined — only inherited. The cost shows up as numbness, as rage that finds no proportion, as relationships that stay on the surface because going deeper was never modeled and never permitted. The work is not about dismantling masculinity. It is about distinguishing between what was given to you and what actually belongs to you, so you can begin living from something real.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In addressing men's issues, I provide a supportive and understanding space to explore the challenges and concerns unique to men. Through therapy, we examine various aspects such as societal expectations, gender roles, relationships, mental health, and identity. I offer strategies to help men navigate issues such as stress, anger, depression, anxiety, or relationship difficulties. Additionally, we explore ways to promote emotional expression, build resilience, and foster healthier coping mechanisms. The goal is to empower men to prioritize their mental health and well-being, develop a more authentic sense of self, and lead fulfilling lives.

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.

Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
I understand men's issues and take a compassionate empowering approach to helping men. Therapy is underutilized for men and can be incredibly helpful for learning to better communicate, to gain greater insight into oneself, coping, skills, stress management skills, reducing negative self-talk, increasing confidence, and behavioral activation (taking action).

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.

The Caruso Wellness Center PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, MART, MA, ALMFT
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.
