Guy J Iacono
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Most men are not taught to talk about what they are actually going through. They are taught to manage it, push through it, and figure it out on their own. That works until it does not. And when it stops working, the cost shows up in relationships, at work, in physical health, and in a quiet but persistent sense that something is off.
Men's issues in therapy is not a vague category. It is about the specific ways that stress, identity, emotion, and expectation intersect for men across different stages of life. That includes navigating pressure to perform and provide, struggling with anger or emotional shutdown, working through relationship conflict, managing the weight of fatherhood, facing a career transition or identity shift, or simply feeling disconnected from a version of yourself you used to recognize.
I work with men from adolescence through adulthood and have spent my career building the kind of clinical relationships where honest conversation is actually possible. My approach is direct without being confrontational, and structured without being rigid. I am not interested in telling you how you should feel. I am interested in helping you figure out what is going on, what you want, and what it is going to take to get there.
Therapy for men works best when it is practical, focused, and built on trust. That is what I aim to offer from the first session forward.
If you are ready for a different kind of conversation, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

New Path Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor
We offer support to men who are navigating a wide range of challenges, including struggles with identity, career pressure, relationship difficulties, emotional expression, and societal expectations. Many men face unique stressors related to their roles as partners, fathers, and professionals, and often feel limited in how they can express vulnerability or seek help. Our approach focuses on creating a safe and open space where men can explore their feelings, develop emotional awareness, and work through issues such as anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. By using evidence-based therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, we guide clients in building stronger emotional resilience, improving communication skills, and achieving greater balance in their lives. Our goal is to help men feel empowered to embrace their full emotional range, break free from societal expectations, and live with authenticity, confidence, and emotional well-being.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
Dr. Jenny Shields isn’t a “men’s therapist.” But a lot of men end up in her office—and stay—because her style just works. She’s direct, honest, and knows how to cut through the noise. No psychobabble. No pressure to bare your soul. Just a steady, grounded space where you can talk things through, figure out what’s not working, and get the kind of support that actually helps.
Many of the men she works with wouldn’t have called themselves “therapy people.” They’re used to solving problems on their own, holding it together, doing what needs to be done. But lately? The stress is constant. The anger shows up out of nowhere. The motivation’s gone. Or maybe life threw something unexpected—a loss, a health scare, a career shift—and suddenly the old ways of coping aren’t cutting it.
Dr. Shields gets it. She blends straight talk with genuine warmth and just the right amount of humor. Her approach is built on trust, practical tools, and real conversation. Using evidence-based therapies like ACT and CBT, she helps men get clear on what matters, get unstuck from what doesn’t, and move forward in a way that feels solid, honest, and fully their own.
This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about giving you room to breathe—and someone you can trust to walk alongside you while you figure out what comes next.
