Men's Issues
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.

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.

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.

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.

Christopher Schadt
Psychologist, PsyD
We experience unique challenges when it comes to asking for help. Stigma and harmful stereotypes often lead to harmful patterns of coping such as "sucking it up" or "pushing through", which ultimately make the problems worse. Therapy helps to unlearn those harmful patterns so that we can learn how to feel and express a full range of emotions, identify the desire for connection, ask for help and all the stuff that makes you, you! Not just who you were told you could be in order to "be a man." That limited range of what is acceptable for "being a man," often keeps men lonely, depressed and angry. Let's fix that together.

Universal City is the entertainment enclave around Universal Studios in the Cahuenga Pass, where theme-park, production, and hospitality workers power one of LA's signature destinations. Mental health needs follow the industry — precarious creative and service employment, irregular hours, and the gap between glamour and paycheck reality. The surrounding LA therapy market, including entertainment-specialized practitioners in the Valley and Hollywood, serves the workforce.
