Men's Issues
Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor, PsyPact
I'm good at helping a man gain the insight necessary to grow and broaden his bandwidth of emotional intelligence. I don't think there are bad men. I think many men have been socialized and programmed in such a way that they get a bad rap especially in relationships. Call me and I'll work with you to find ways out of this dark trap of toxic masculinity. Call: 913-991-2302.

Men's Issues
Benjamin Smalley, TherapyKC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many men have not been initiated into what mature masculinity really is. We have learned to carry stress, pressure, and emotion internally, often without a clear space to process it. Whether it’s related to relationships, identity, anger, or feeling stuck, therapy offers a place to step out of that isolation. I run mens groups that are adjacent to my work as a therapist. I care deeply about mens issues. In my practice I work with men to better understand the psychological underpinnings of their masculinity and where that has become obstructed.

Raber Hamad
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, NCC, LPC
You’ve been told to be strong, to keep it together—but at what cost? Maybe you feel the pressure to handle everything alone, bury your stress, or push through emotions instead of dealing with them. You might struggle with anger, disconnection, or the weight of expectations that never let up. Whether it’s relationship struggles, anxiety, self-doubt, or past wounds that still linger, you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. Therapy isn’t about weakness—it’s about gaining the tools to show up fully in your life, on your own terms. Let’s work through it together.

Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have extensive experience working with men across a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationships, anger, identity, work and family pressures, and major life transitions. I offer a space where men can explore emotions, vulnerability, relationships, and expectations around masculinity without assumptions about what being a man should look like or how men should experience or express emotions.
