Men's Issues
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.

Men's Issues
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.

Men's Issues
Dr Calvin Young
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LCPC
Men's issues are unique and universal at times. As a male clinician of color I navigate this space and try to use my own lived experiences to assist others so similarly situated to live better and effective lives as men in a complex world that is not always positively-focused on our best lived outcomes

Men's Issues
Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
Many men have been raised to view emotional pain as a sign of weakness and, consequently, have difficulty identifying, expressing, and regulating their emotions. My goal as a therapist is to create an environment in which men can feel safe and supported while processing their emotions and to help reframe being in touch with one's emotions as an indicator of strength and empowerment.

Men's Issues
Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Men are often shaped by rigid gender expectations that limit emotional expression and reinforce harmful power dynamics in relationships. I work with men individually and in couples therapy to examine masculinity, accountability, and relational impact, while building emotional awareness, communication skills, and more equitable ways of relating. This work supports personal growth alongside healthier, more respectful relationships.

Men's Issues
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.

I work with men navigating the pressures and complexities of the social expectations they often place on themselves. Together, we explore identity, relationships, emotional expression, stress, and life transitions while building healthier coping strategies and self-awareness. My approach provides a supportive, nonjudgmental space where men can develop greater emotional balance, confidence, and authenticity in their personal and professional lives.

Men's Issues
Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Men's therapy carries a unique set of pressures — performance culture, the isolation that comes with leadership, and environments that reward emotional suppression and punish vulnerability. I work exclusively with high-performing men navigating perfectionism, imposter syndrome, burnout, identity, fatherhood, emotional regulation, and proof-based self-worth through Character Driven Therapy — a framework I developed specifically for this population. This is not generic talk therapy; it is direct, structured, identity-level work built for men who are wired to handle everything alone and are ready to try something different.
