Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Men need men to talk to. But men do not talk to other men. This is possibly from fathers not talking to sons, or the often acute social anxiety when men speak to each other in ways that make them vulnerable. But in the sanctity of my office, or virtual office, we talk frankly about men. We share stories of challenges, successes and failures. And we do so, without judgment or scorn. And most importantly, as a 50 year old man, I have ground some of the same grist for the mill that you have. I have answers to the things you would be embarrassed to talk with your physician about and I talk about those things in an honest and frank manner. And all without any judgement or scorn. This is a safe place.

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.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Men can face distinctive pressures related to emotional expression, self-reliance, achievement, work, providing for others, relationships, sexuality, and expectations about strength or control. Family, culture, community, and gender-role socialization can all influence how men understand themselves, respond to distress, connect with others, and decide when or how to seek support. These experiences may contribute to isolation, self-criticism, difficulty expressing needs, or a sense that self-worth depends on success or usefulness.
Therapy can offer space to explore and cultivate a version of masculinity that reflects your own identities, values, and experiences. There is no single healthy way to be a man; the goal is to help you define and live out a version that feels authentic, positive, and sustainable.

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.

Psychologist, PhD, LP
Throughout my career, I have found myself to be a good fit for men due to my direct, active engagement and willingness to challenge within sessions. I want men to be able to know and feel their emotions, growing an ability to let themselves touch in to a sensitive side.
