Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Our culture demands a limited kind of masculinity from men, telling them not to display their tender emotions, not to cry, and not to ask for help. It is important for men to feel their deepest feelings in the safe space therapy can provide.

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.

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.

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.

David Eshleman
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
Therapy can be especially difficult for men to open up to. It can also be difficult to distinguish between toxic and healthy masculinity. Often times the ideals of communication and vulnerability fly in the face of the "idea" of masculinity that society has historically thrust onto men. I understand that. There is no shame in taking care of your mental health. Think of going to therapy as going to the gym of the mind, as well as a place to gain clarity on what it means to live in the world as a man today.

Omer Harari
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I support men in identifying patterns, beliefs, behaviors, "shoulds" and narratives that have contributed to weakened relationships, misplaced anger or loss of joy, feelings of low self-worth, and other challenges. I've helped men cultivate tenderness, foster joy and self-esteem by recovering integrity, matching one's values with actions.

Oliver Drakeford
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CGP
Specializing in therapy for men in Los Angeles and West Hollywood for nearly a decade, I understand the unique challenges men face when seeking mental health support in a culture that often equates vulnerability with weakness. My approach to men's therapy recognizes how traditional masculine norms—the pressure to be providers, stay emotionally stoic, and solve problems independently—can create barriers to healing and authentic connection. Located in West Hollywood, I offer both in-person and online therapy throughout Los Angeles, creating a relaxed, goal-oriented environment where men can safely explore emotions, develop healthier coping strategies beyond anger or substance use, and redefine strength on their own terms. Having worked extensively with male clients from diverse backgrounds, I help men navigate everything from depression and relationship challenges to workplace stress and identity questions, using straightforward communication and action-oriented strategies that resonate with how many men process change. My West Hollywood practice serves as a judgment-free zone where men throughout Los Angeles can finally drop the armor and discover that seeking support is actually one of the strongest decisions they can make.
