Men’s Issues
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

Scheyden Herold
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #137593, MS
Being a man myself, I understand a lot of what our gender struggles with. We are always told to be "tough", or "man up". We tend to bottle up our emotions because that is what means to be "manly". It is becoming increasingly difficult for a man to understand what his role is, with the world changing everyday. We can explore that together, and help you work through the stigmas associated with being a man.

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.

Dan Fink
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Living in a world drowning in toxic masculinity, white supremacy, and hyper-competitive capitalism has done so much damage to our ideas of what it means to be a man in the world today. Let's climb through the shame, anger, frustration, and despair to find a new story of what it means to be a man and how that could change your connections to others.

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.

Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
My clientele are both men and women but one of the things that draws male clients to work with me is that I am a man. The helping professions have a disproportionate amount of women practitioners. So, as a male therapist in my 50s I tend to be sought out by men of various ages who wish to address Men's Issues. These issues include men who are becoming more conscious about relating to women in non-oppressive ways, striving to find positive modes of being masculine, figuring out how to relate to other men in less competitive and more supportive ways, fathering, etc. Men feel comfortable addressing these issues with me, and find that I too am thoughtfully engaged in my own healthy male identity development.

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.

This is an area of mine I am particularly passionate about. I have worked with men on issues with anger regulation (both internalized and externalized anger), stress, avoidance, perfectionism, covert incest/emotional enmeshment, relationship issues, gender stereotypes, body image, codependency, sex, and emotional expression.
