Men’s Issues
Abby Cobey
Psychologist, PsyD
Men approach the world with a strength and vulnerability that is pretty different from what women experience. I enjoy helping men question thinking patterns and notions about masculinity learned throughout a lifetime so that they can decide to what type of human they really want to be. Culture and race can play a large part in who we are taught to be and I would be happy to help you examine and ask questions about how you got to be the man you are and how you might become the man you want to be.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., DBSM
Common topics men come to therapy for include navigating relationship dynamics, handling stress, fatherhood and family responsibilities, sexual issues, career pressures, overcoming issues related to emotional repression and mental health issues like depression and anxiety. Dr. Kessler helps with communication skills, self-esteem and developing healthier coping mechanisms. A good men’s issues therapist recognizes the importance of a supportive and understanding environment where men can explore and address these issues without judgment, leading to improved mental health and well-being.
When addressing men's issues, Dr. Kessler often addresses concerns like managing societal expectations and stereotypes, dealing with traditional notions of masculinity, and addressing emotional expression and mental health in a way that aligns with their personal identity.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Whether we focus on masculinity or not, the pressures and expectations that men can face create a unique dynamic that can't be ignored. As a psychologist specializing in men's issues, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to reinforce your strengths while exploring the aspects of your life that don't fit or work as well as you'd want. I draw upon the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences can impact the body and brain in ways that disrupt our daily life. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Many men struggle with finding a safe place to experience emotion or connect deeply with anyone other than a romantic partner. This can create unnecessary stress on relationships or lead to a sense of isolation. Learning to identify and process emotions in a safe space and build strong, connected relationships can help men find connection and peace in today's difficult world.
