Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I offer a supportive and understanding environment tailored to addressing men's issues, recognizing the unique challenges and societal expectations faced by men today. Through a blend of holistic and psychotherapeutic strategies, including Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, I help men explore and express their emotions, improve communication skills, and navigate personal and professional challenges. This comprehensive approach encourages self-awareness, resilience, and personal growth, allowing men to break free from limiting beliefs and behaviors. By fostering a space for open dialogue and exploration, I aim to support men in developing healthier relationships, achieving life balance, and cultivating a strong sense of self. Whether dealing with stress, relationship issues, identity concerns, or emotional health, I am here to guide men through their journey towards well-being and fulfillment, emphasizing the importance of holistic health and emotional integrity.

Reid Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD
I work with a lot of men. Knowing your emotions takes strength and learning to include your emotions into your value-aligned life and relationships takes even more strength. Getting to know your emotions, especially when there is pain involved, often times takes being able to share about them with someone else. Therapy is a relationship that is a safe enough place to begin to know yourself and your emotions better, to help you more actively choose the life you want instead of being compelled by your emotions, whether that is through not knowing them, being overwhelmed, or having them play out in painful, sometimes subtle ways in relationships.

Christopher Schamber
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As men, we are often taught to white-knuckle it through our problems and "tough it out." In many families, showing emotion is considered "weakness."
While public awareness of mental health is changing, the stigma around feeling persistent sadness or anxiety is a harsh reality for many men. Our therapy is a safe place to share what's going on. There's no judgment here. We will explore your emotions and how to better understand where they come from. Once we have that solid base of understanding, we will find ways to release those feelings in a healthy way.

What does it mean to be a man in today's society and your culture? How is that image impacting your relationships (even the one with yourself)? Being a man has an inherent set of complications and pressures, which can effect your emotional well-being. If you are finding yourself being more angry, more sad, more lonely, and/or more stress, we address the underlying pressures you are facing and start to change the internal conversation to help you tap into your strengths.
