Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a therapist, I understand that men today face a wide range of complex issues, from masculinity and relationships, to work-life balance and emotional expression. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment for men to explore and understand these challenges, and to work towards finding solutions that will improve their well-being.
I specialize in working with men using evidence-based interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. We will work together to understand the underlying causes of your issues, identify patterns of behavior that may be holding you back, and develop effective strategies to improve your relationships, manage stress, and increase emotional intelligence.
My ultimate goal is to empower you to take control of your mental health, and to help you find a sense of balance and inner peace. I will provide a non-judgmental and understanding space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, and work through your struggles.

Stuart Kaplowitz / Serene Pathways Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MFT
Traditionally, it is not easy for us men to open up and share, including asking for help. Needless to say, this may be a problem for our partners. Just because we can learn to share thoughts and feelings more appropriately, does not mean we have to do so with the entire world. But the important people in our lives may appreciate this growth

New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Men often face unique emotional, relational, and life challenges that can feel isolating or difficult to navigate alone. Struggles with anger, addictions, unmet needs, or communication challenges are common and can impact relationships, work, and overall well-being. In therapy, we provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore these experiences, understand their roots, and develop healthier ways to cope and connect. With Christ-centered guidance, men are supported in processing emotions, improving communication, addressing addictive patterns, and embracing their God-given identity and purpose with greater confidence, resilience, and emotional balance.

Sean Brennan
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
In my opinion, the therapy space doesn't always honor masculinity in the way that it should. Therapy with me involves preserving your masculinity while directly addressing the things that aren't working for you. My goal is to ensure that you don't stay in therapy indefinitely - and leave feeling empowered and capable of handling whatever comes your way. Let's get to work.

Anthony Canapi - Your Queer Relationship Therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Many men are taught to perform strength rather than feel it; to suppress vulnerability, disconnect from emotion, and measure worth through achievement or desirability. Over time, this can show up as burnout, relationship strain, loneliness, anger, or feeling emotionally “stuck.”
No matter how you identify or see the world, therapy can be a place to redefine masculinity on your own terms. We can explore emotional expression, intimacy fears, attachment patterns, body image, sexuality, and the pressure to “have it all together.” My goal is not to dismantle your strength- it’s to expand it, so it includes softness, connection, and depth.

Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
I work with men navigating emotional expression, intimacy, identity, fatherhood, cultural expectations, and relational challenges — creating space for vulnerability without shame. I love supporting men who may want to explore their relationships to women or their mothers and being able to be a safe person to explore that with honestly and without judgement.

Chris Tickner
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, MFT
Men are struggling these days. We often are unsure who we are supposed to be. We have a much hard time reaching out for help. Men suffer from a toxic gender norm that dictates they be strong, capable, and not express weakness or vulnerability. Overcoming that norm is one of the key things we do in our work. Helping men get in touch with and expressing their feelings is a powerful experience. I provide both individual and group therapy opportunities for men. There is nothing more inspiring than being in a group of men, holding another man as he weeps or rages.
