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.

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.

Bryan Leach
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Each individual's concept of what it means to be "a man" is informed by norms and expectations impressed upon them by family, society, and their own experience. Challenges can arise when men achieve, fail to achieve, or experience conflict between these internalized standards. I have experience working with men navigating such challenges, which can manifest as symptoms such as low self-worth, loneliness, poor sense of self, unfulfilling relationships, discomfort with emotional expression, and sexual dysfunction.

Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
Men face unique pressures around emotional expression, identity, relationships, and societal expectations of masculinity. I provide a judgment-free space for men to explore challenges including work stress, relationship difficulties, fatherhood, and redefining what it means to be a man today. My approach helps you develop emotional awareness and vulnerability as strengths while building the life you genuinely want.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
Men often learn early in life to organize themselves around competence, independence, and control. While these adaptations can be enormously protective for us, they also making intimacy and vulnerability painfully complicated. In our work, we can become curious about the particular meanings masculinity takes on in your life, rather than assume there is one "right way" to "be a man."
