Christopher McDowell, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
I began my career focusing on the treatment of children and adolescents, but most of my work prior to graduate school focused on assisting boys in therapeutic foster care and other foster care settings. Since becoming a therapist, I've been surprised that everyone just sends me their boys. As a result, my focus over my career has turned more to issues related to boys and men. I am currently expanding my practice to treat more adult men. While I still have openings for children and adolescents, I'm more likely to have openings for adults, as I have a few business hour slots available, prior to 3pm.

Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Men's therapy carries a unique set of pressures — performance culture, the isolation that comes with leadership, and environments that reward emotional suppression and punish vulnerability. I work exclusively with high-performing men navigating perfectionism, imposter syndrome, burnout, identity, fatherhood, emotional regulation, and proof-based self-worth through Character Driven Therapy — a framework I developed specifically for this population. This is not generic talk therapy; it is direct, structured, identity-level work built for men who are wired to handle everything alone and are ready to try something different.

Drew Carr
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You had a good day. Work went well; you exercised; maybe even spent time with people you care about. Then you got home, noticed everything you had not done, opened your phone “for a minute,” and disappeared into comparison, research, or another plan to improve your life. By bedtime, the day no longer felt like enough. I work with thoughtful, driven folks, often ADHD or ADHD-ish, who look capable from the outside but feel restless, scattered, disconnected, or chronically behind. You may be successful and self-aware, yet exhausted from constantly trying to fix yourself.
My approach is practical and collaborative, grounded in contextual behavioral science. We look beneath procrastination, distraction, burnout, and indecision to understand how these patterns developed and what keeps them going. Therapy is not another performance test. It is a place to rebuild self-trust and act from what matters—not shame, fear, or proving.
I do not offer a final formula for what your life should be. I can help you slow the machinery down, recognize the rules that have been running you, and take the next honest step without abandoning yourself. If you have built a life that should feel meaningful but doesn't feel like home, contact me to see whether we're a good fit.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Men are often expected to handle things on their own—to push through, stay quiet, and keep functioning no matter what’s going on underneath. From a young age, many men are taught to disconnect from their emotions, minimize their needs, and equate vulnerability with weakness. That pressure doesn’t just disappear—it shows up as stress, anger, isolation, relationship difficulties, or feeling disconnected from yourself without fully knowing why. And for men navigating cultural, racial, or generational expectations around masculinity, those layers can run even deeper.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t buy into the idea that men need less support—or that the only acceptable emotions are anger or silence. We work with you to understand what’s actually going on beneath the surface and help you build a more honest relationship with yourself. This includes developing emotional awareness, improving communication, navigating relationships more intentionally, and redefining what strength looks like on your terms. We also name the cultural and systemic expectations that shape how men are taught to show up, so you’re not internalizing something that was never yours to carry. This is about helping you feel more grounded, more connected, and more aligned with who you actually are—not who you’ve been told to be.
