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.

Nick Sotor
Psychologist, PsyD
Patriarchy and masculinity, especially as understood through the lens of whiteness is a culture of violence, oppression, and repression. While we must take accountability and responsibility for the ways western patriarchy has harmed the world and those around us, we can simultaneously acknowledge that patriarchy harms ourselves as well. Coming from place of compassion and courage I work with men to explore and dismantle many of the harmful messages that have been taught to us in our culture and work to cultivate male identities rooted in community, care, and love.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
It is not uncommon for those of us who have been instilled with the expectation that to be vulnerable is, to some degree, a reflection of weakness. However, to be human is to be inherently vulnerable and the best we can do is to accept this within ourselves and others so that we can continue in our journey toward living a fulfilling life.

Dr. Daniel Cantor
Psychologist, Psy. D.
In my work, "Men's Issues" are understood to be the work of taking stock of your identity and becoming more responsible for how you are showing up for yourself, friends, family and community. Men have inherited many ideas that limit how we express our myriad feelings and connect with other people authentically. Embracing masculinity means getting to know how gender is a lens through which we are filtering our social experience. Take the powerful step of owning your conscious and unconscious gender beliefs and choose deliberately how you embody these values in the world.

Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
We offer a thoughtful, nuanced approach to working with men and issues that often impact their mental health and well-being. We recognize that many men are shaped by cultural expectations around masculinity that can make it difficult to express vulnerability, seek support, or fully engage with their emotional lives. These pressures can contribute to concerns such as depression, anxiety, anger, relationship challenges, and a sense of isolation or disconnection. Our work with men is grounded in creating a space where openness is welcomed and complexity is respected. We help clients explore how internalized beliefs about masculinity may be influencing their thoughts, behaviors, and relationships, while also building skills for emotional awareness, communication, and resilience. Using an integrative, evidence-based approach, we tailor treatment to each individual’s goals and experiences. Whether addressing mental health symptoms, navigating life transitions, or working to build more fulfilling relationships, we aim to support men in developing a more flexible, authentic, and connected way of living.
