David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
Men often face pressure to handle things on our own, which can make it harder to talk about stress, emotions, or personal struggles. This can lead to feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or stuck. In therapy we will create a space where you can be open without judgment and work through challenges related to relationships, identity, stress, or expectations. The goal is to help you feel more clear, more grounded, and better equipped to handle what you are facing.

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.

Emma Esper
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
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.

Nina Marikian
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Society often tells men to “tough it out,” leaving struggles buried and isolated. I provide a space to explore identity, emotions, and pressures, helping men live authentically, express themselves fully, and navigate life with strength and emotional insight.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Men often face pressure to manage emotions privately or maintain a sense of control, which can make it difficult to seek support. I work with men to better understand their emotional experiences, relationships, and internal expectations. Therapy offers a space to reflect, gain clarity, and develop more authentic and sustainable ways of relating.

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.

Santa Ana is one of the most densely populated cities in the United States and has an overwhelmingly Latino population — predominantly Mexican American, with significant Central American communities — making Spanish-speaking and bicultural therapists not a specialty but a baseline requirement for meaningful access to care. The city's families navigate a complex mix of immigration stress, economic precarity, and the particular challenges of raising children across cultures, and therapists fluent in both language and cultural context serve an essential community function. CHOC Children's and the broader Orange County healthcare system provide institutional mental health resources, though access can be limited by insurance and immigration-related barriers. Telehealth has meaningfully expanded therapy access for Santa Ana residents who prefer culturally matched care over what is available locally.
