Robert dos Santos Teixeira
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, SMF, MPIA, MA, MSW, LCSW
It is not easy to be a man these days: Many masculine qualities, which were once celebrated and extolled, are now recklessly attacked.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Society teaches men to be providers, problem-solvers, and to keep pushing no matter what. You’ve learned to handle everything alone, pushing through stress, frustration, and pressure without slowing down. Even success can feel empty when self-doubt lingers and relationships feel distant. Therapy with me isn’t about endless analysis. It’s about cutting through the noise, making sense of what’s keeping you stuck, and finding real ways forward. Your independence is a strength, but real strength is knowing you don’t have to carry it all alone.

Today's society is fraught with conflicting messages about what it means to be a man. I provide a safe space to express your frustrations and difficulties around masculinity. My goal is to help you integrate different aspects of your personality and define a coherent identity that aligns with your values as a man.

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.
