Francis A. Bax
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LMHC, LPC, CASAC-Master
Being a male myself, I'm very aware of issues around sexuality and masculinity. Often us men are taught to hide our vulnerable emotions such as hurt or sadness and instead express anger and lash out impulsively. We also have challenges with Intimacy and affection including sexual issues. Sometimes we're numbing or pushing away emotions. I help men deal with those issues and help them get on track with their feelings and emotions.

Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
I work with men navigating challenges related to identity, stress, relationships, and emotional expression. Many clients experience pressure to meet personal, professional, or societal expectations while struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, or difficulty communicating feelings. My approach provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore these challenges, develop emotional awareness, strengthen coping skills, and build healthier relationships with themselves and others.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Research shows that men are less likely to seek therapy on their own. Messages like “I should handle this myself” or “therapy is for the weak” often keep men from reaching out—until something in life forces the issue. If you’re looking into therapy on your own, that’s a strong first step.
Many men struggle silently with anger, loneliness, dissatisfaction, sexual concerns, relationship stress, work pressures, body image, or feeling inadequate as a provider. These issues are common—and treatable.
Therapy offers a confidential, non-judgmental space to sort through what’s going on and regain a sense of clarity and control. If you’re ready—or even just considering it—reach out, and we can talk about what you need.

A Better High,LLC
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, C.A.R.C.
A lot of men were taught to keep everything inside until it explodes. I work with men who are struggling with anger, addiction, isolation, relationships, purpose, confidence, or the pressure of always feeling like they have to hold it together. My style is honest, grounded, and straightforward. No corporate self-help language. Just real conversations focused on helping you become more emotionally aware, more accountable, and more in control of your life without losing your edge.
