Men’s Issues
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.

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.

Men’s Issues
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.

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.

Men’s Issues
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.

Men’s Issues
Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Many men struggle privately with emotional stress, relationship difficulties, anger, depression, anxiety, loneliness, identity concerns, or a persistent sense of pressure to remain emotionally controlled and self-sufficient. Some men feel disconnected from themselves or others, while others experience frustration, burnout, shame, or difficulty navigating major life responsibilities and transitions.
I provide therapy for men seeking greater emotional awareness, healthier relationships, improved coping strategies, and a stronger sense of purpose and authenticity. My approach is thoughtful, direct, and relational, helping clients better understand long-standing emotional and behavioral patterns while developing greater psychological flexibility, confidence, and emotional connection.
