Molly Halbrooks
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Men are often raised in a culture that limits their emotional expression and holds them to specific, limiting standards of masculinity. Anger, feelings of emptiness, difficulty forming or keeping close relationships, and lack of purpose can result from this. We will explore how this has impacted you, and help you find effective ways to communicate your thoughts and feelings to those in your life while working through barriers to growth and change. We will also explore other areas such as parenting, career, and personal development as applicable.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
It is not uncommon for those of us who have been instilled with the expectation that to be vulnerable is, to some degree, a reflection of weakness. However, to be human is to be inherently vulnerable and the best we can do is to accept this within ourselves and others so that we can continue in our journey toward living a fulfilling life.

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.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with men who are navigating stress, pressure, relationships, and the expectation to “hold it all together.” Many men have learned to push through, shut things down, or handle challenges on their own—but that often leads to burnout, frustration, or feeling disconnected. My approach is straightforward and practical, focused on helping you better understand your reactions, manage stress, communicate more effectively, and feel more in control of your life. This is a space where you don’t have to have all the answers—you just have to be willing to show up and start.
