Men's Issues
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.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
While I work with all expressions of gender, men in particular seek me out. I can understand the vulnerability that comes up with first exploring emotions that may have historically been presented to us as a weakness. You can be a strong man while still developing emotional intelligence, at your own pace.

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.

Theo Kuczek
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT #123769, CPT
Feminism missed the mark on encouraging men to live fully in their traditionally "feminine" energy. Being shamed for having strong emotions and feelings is something that every man has to deal with. Men need and crave emotional intimacy too. Its hard to do in a society that doesn't support it. I'll show you how being sensitive is the best thing you can do for yourself and the world.
15 Years Experience
In-Person Near San Francisco, CA
Online in San Francisco, CA California
San Francisco's extreme housing costs and the psychological toll of the tech industry — characterized by intense performance pressure, rapid layoff cycles, and boom-bust uncertainty — have made burnout, anxiety, and economic grief among the most common presenting concerns. The city has a historically significant LGBTQ+ community, and affirming therapists specializing in gender identity, queer relationships, and HIV-related concerns remain an important part of the local therapy landscape. UCSF Health provides world-class institutional mental health resources, while the city's dense network of independent practitioners reflects a culture that has long embraced therapy as a normal and valued part of life. Telehealth has expanded access significantly for Bay Area residents commuting from Oakland, the East Bay, and the Peninsula.
