Men's Issues
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In addressing men's issues, I provide a supportive and understanding space to explore the challenges and concerns unique to men. Through therapy, we examine various aspects such as societal expectations, gender roles, relationships, mental health, and identity. I offer strategies to help men navigate issues such as stress, anger, depression, anxiety, or relationship difficulties. Additionally, we explore ways to promote emotional expression, build resilience, and foster healthier coping mechanisms. The goal is to empower men to prioritize their mental health and well-being, develop a more authentic sense of self, and lead fulfilling lives.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Men often come to therapy carrying pressures that feel hard to name—expectations to be strong, self-reliant, and in control, even when things feel anything but. In our work, we create space to explore what’s underneath: stress, anger, disconnection, questions about identity, relationships, or purpose. Together, we’ll make sense of these experiences at your pace, helping you develop a clearer understanding of yourself and more flexibility in how you respond—so you can feel more grounded, connected, and authentic in your life.

Lincoln Park Psychology, Inc
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologists, LCPC, LPC, LCSW, LSW, CADC, AMFT
Men face unique challenges and pressures in today's world, yet often feel they have nowhere to turn for support. Our therapy services for men provide a judgment-free space to address issues like stress, anger management, relationship difficulties, work-life balance, identity and purpose, depression, anxiety, and the weight of societal expectations around masculinity. We understand that asking for help can feel uncomfortable, especially when you've been taught to "tough it out" or handle everything on your own. Whether you're dealing with career transitions, family conflicts, emotional numbness, or simply feeling lost or overwhelmed, therapy offers practical tools and honest conversations to help you navigate challenges, build healthier relationships, and live a more authentic, fulfilling life. Strength isn't about struggling alone—it's about having the courage to invest in yourself and your wellbeing.
