Men's Issues
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.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Research shows that men are less likely to seek therapy on their own. Messages like “I should handle this myself” or “therapy is for the weak” often keep men from reaching out—until something in life forces the issue. If you’re looking into therapy on your own, that’s a strong first step.
Many men struggle silently with anger, loneliness, dissatisfaction, sexual concerns, relationship stress, work pressures, body image, or feeling inadequate as a provider. These issues are common—and treatable.
Therapy offers a confidential, non-judgmental space to sort through what’s going on and regain a sense of clarity and control. If you’re ready—or even just considering it—reach out, and we can talk about what you need.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
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 in our journey toward living a fulfilling life.

Dr Calvin Young
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LCPC
Men's issues are unique and universal at times. As a male clinician of color I navigate this space and try to use my own lived experiences to assist others so similarly situated to live better and effective lives as men in a complex world that is not always positively-focused on our best lived outcomes

Men's Issues
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with men who are not new to self‑reflection. You may already value therapy, reading, or inner work, and want a place to go deeper and be more fully honest. This might be because stress from a high‑pressure or high‑responsibility career has built up, patterns in relationships keep repeating, or you have reached a point in life where “just pushing through” no longer feels like enough. You might notice burnout, irritability, withdrawal, difficulty talking about certain emotions, or feeling alone even when you are not physically alone.
Some men I work with are navigating ADHD in the workplace and feel misunderstood, disorganized, or constantly behind. Others want deeper friendships or more connection in their relationships but are unsure how to build or maintain that. You may be dating, going through a separation, adjusting to a new stage of parenting, or trying to make sense of old patterns that are resurfacing.
In many cultures, men are encouraged to handle things alone, minimize distress, or turn feelings into action. Over time, this can create pressure, isolation, or a sense of being cut off from yourself, even if things look fine from the outside. In our work together, there is no expectation that you arrive with the right words. We move at a pace that feels manageable for your nervous system and your life, and we pay attention to what actually helps you feel clearer, more grounded, and more genuinely yourself in work, friendships, and relationships. You do not have to keep carrying all of this by yourself. I work extensively with men in this position, and I respect the courage it takes to start this conversation.

Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
Men are often educated, from an early age, to hid their emotions, leading to some confusing moments when others in our life expect more from us. We can work on uncovering what limits our range of expression and difficulties with anger and other complicated feelings that may arise.

Marc Feinberg
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
Being a man in today’s world isn’t easy. You’re expected to be strong, yet silent — successful, yet never vulnerable. But true strength isn’t about suppressing emotion; it’s about having the courage to face it. Many men carry silent battles — shame, anger, loneliness, or the pressure to perform — without ever feeling truly seen. Healing begins when you stop running from your pain and start reclaiming your purpose. Through truth, forgiveness, and love, you can rediscover your identity, rebuild your confidence, and lead from a place of freedom. You’re not broken — you’re becoming who you were meant to be.

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.

Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Men need men to talk to. But men do not talk to other men. This is possibly from fathers not talking to sons, or the often acute social anxiety when men speak to each other in ways that make them vulnerable. But in the sanctity of my office, or virtual office, we talk frankly about men. We share stories of challenges, successes and failures. And we do so, without judgment or scorn. And most importantly, as a 50 year old man, I have ground some of the same grist for the mill that you have. I have answers to the things you would be embarrassed to talk with your physician about and I talk about those things in an honest and frank manner. And all without any judgement or scorn. This is a safe place.

Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Men are often shaped by rigid gender expectations that limit emotional expression and reinforce harmful power dynamics in relationships. I work with men individually and in couples therapy to examine masculinity, accountability, and relational impact, while building emotional awareness, communication skills, and more equitable ways of relating. This work supports personal growth alongside healthier, more respectful relationships.
