Brett Ryan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #128956
I work with men who are addicted or struggling with porn use. Often times men don't know why they are drawn to using porn. I help them figure out the triggers, create accountability, and abstain from using porn.

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.

Dr. Mitch Keil, PsyD
Psychologist, Keil Psych Group
Men often come to therapy because something has stopped working. A relationship is struggling. Anger is getting harder to control. Work no longer feels satisfying. Anxiety has become constant. They're drinking too much, feeling disconnected, or achieving everything they thought they were supposed to achieve and wondering why they still don't feel particularly good.
Many men have spent a lifetime becoming very good at functioning while remaining disconnected from parts of themselves. We learn early to convert hurt into anger, vulnerability into withdrawal, insecurity into achievement, and fear into control. Being needed, productive, strong, or successful can become much easier than admitting that we're lonely, overwhelmed, ashamed, or unsure of ourselves.
Our approach to men's therapy is direct, practical, and depth-oriented. We use psychodynamic therapy alongside evidence-based approaches to understand the experiences and relationship patterns that shaped you, while also addressing what's happening in your life right now. This may include anxiety, depression, anger, relationships and marriage, fatherhood, career stress and burnout, addiction, intimacy, identity, or major life transitions.
Good therapy for men isn't about making you less masculine or endlessly analyzing your feelings. It's about expanding your range—understanding yourself better, becoming more emotionally capable, improving your relationships, and having greater freedom in how you respond to life.
Strength isn't the absence of vulnerability. Real strength is having access to all of yourself.

David Oretsky Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a licensed therapist specializing in men's mental health, I have dedicated my professional life to helping men navigate through various life challenges such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, career concerns, and issues surrounding masculinity. I believe in the importance of mental wellness and emotional self-awareness, and I understand the unique societal pressures and expectations that many men face. I am committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential environment where men can express themselves openly, build resilience, and explore effective strategies for personal growth and improved mental health. My therapeutic approach is centered around empathy, compassion, and individualized care, as I firmly believe in each person's capacity to heal, change, and grow. Let's work together to build the strength, courage, and tools necessary for a more fulfilling, balanced life.
