Men's Issues
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.

Benjamin Smalley, TherapyKC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many men have not been initiated into what mature masculinity really is. We have learned to carry stress, pressure, and emotion internally, often without a clear space to process it. Whether it’s related to relationships, identity, anger, or feeling stuck, therapy offers a place to step out of that isolation. I run mens groups that are adjacent to my work as a therapist. I care deeply about mens issues. In my practice I work with men to better understand the psychological underpinnings of their masculinity and where that has become obstructed.

Raber Hamad
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, LPC
You’ve been told to be strong, to keep it together—but at what cost? Maybe you feel the pressure to handle everything alone, bury your stress, or push through emotions instead of dealing with them. You might struggle with anger, disconnection, or the weight of expectations that never let up. Whether it’s relationship struggles, anxiety, self-doubt, or past wounds that still linger, you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. Therapy isn’t about weakness—it’s about gaining the tools to show up fully in your life, on your own terms. Let’s work through it together.

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.

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.

Taylor Esworthy
Marriage and Family Therapist, PMFT
Many men are taught to suppress emotions or handle things on their own, which can make it hard to reach out for support. I work with men to create a space where you can show up honestly, process what you’re carrying, and build emotional awareness without judgment.

Jenna Poppe
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, NNC, PLPC | ADHD + Relationship Therapist
Men are often taught that struggle is weakness and that asking for help means something is wrong with them. By the time many men find their way to therapy, they have been white-knuckling it for a long time, managing stress, suppressing emotion, and carrying more than anyone around them knows. This is a space where that changes. No judgment, no pressure to have it together, no expectation that you should already know how to talk about this stuff. Just honest, real, effective work with someone who is genuinely in your corner.

Forest Williams
Life Coach, ICF
When I transitioned from female to male, I was shocked at the amount of social privileges I lost. I have deep compassion for men and the social conditioning that impacts their relationships (touch starvation, emotional suppression, etc.) and enjoy holding space for men to heal and grow.
