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.

Men's Issues
Dr. Rosy Saenz-Sierzega
Psychologist, PhD, MA, NBCC
Men often face pressures around relationships, work, family, sexuality, emotions, and expectations about how they are supposed to handle problems. I provide a straightforward, nonjudgmental environment where men can address those issues honestly, understand their patterns, and work toward practical changes.

Men's Issues
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Most men arrive in therapy having spent years inside a definition of masculinity that was never examined — only inherited. The cost shows up as numbness, as rage that finds no proportion, as relationships that stay on the surface because going deeper was never modeled and never permitted. The work is not about dismantling masculinity. It is about distinguishing between what was given to you and what actually belongs to you, so you can begin living from something real.
