Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address men's issues and adopt a comprehensive and faith-based approach that integrates psychological insights with Christian principles. Recognizing the unique challenges faced by men, I create a supportive space to explore issues such as identity, relationships, and purpose through the lens of Christian values. Drawing upon biblical teachings on masculinity, responsibility, and integrity, I help men navigate the complexities of their lives while fostering personal and spiritual growth. Discussions on prayer, scriptural reflection, and reliance on God's guidance are incorporated to provide a foundation for addressing challenges specific to men. This integrated approach aims to support men in finding strength, purpose, and a deeper connection with their faith as they navigate life's journey within the context of their Christian beliefs.

Greg Welikson
Psychologist, PhD
For many men, the expectation to be the "rock" leaves little room to process fear, exhaustion, or doubt. When emotional pressure builds, it often manifests as pulling away or reacting with frustration—leaving both you and your partner feeling isolated.
My practice offers a confidential, strength-based space to understand your relational pattern (attachment style) and break out of reactive cycles. We focus on transforming surface-level frustration into clear communication and emotional connection, giving you a strategic blueprint to navigate life’s pressures without sacrificing your relationships or well-being.

Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
I specialize in working with men who are seeking a practical, action-oriented space to address emotional and psychological challenges. Many men are drawn to my structured, empirically backed approach, which provides a clear, transparent framework for growth without feeling vague or open-ended. In our work, we navigate the distinct societal expectations placed on men—including the pressure to appear self-sufficient and the common conditioning that limits emotional expression primarily to anger. I bring specialized skill in anger management, helping you understand anger as a signal rather than a flaw, and equipping you with concrete CBT and emotion-regulation tools to diffuse reactivity, improve communication, and regain control over your life and relationships.

Nick Sotor
Psychologist, PsyD
Patriarchy and masculinity, especially as understood through the lens of whiteness is a culture of violence, oppression, and repression. While we must take accountability and responsibility for the ways western patriarchy has harmed the world and those around us, we can simultaneously acknowledge that patriarchy harms ourselves as well. Coming from place of compassion and courage I work with men to explore and dismantle many of the harmful messages that have been taught to us in our culture and work to cultivate male identities rooted in community, care, and love.
