Men’s Issues therapists in Wendell, North Carolina NC
Patricia Tuohy
Counselor/Therapist, M.S. LCMHC Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and EMDR Certified Therapist
Generally men are socialized to not show emotion and "push on." This does not serve them well as they are human and therefore have and experience all the emotions women feel, but feel they need to internalize them. In many ways men are different from men in how they relate and process things. I enjoy assisting men in finding a new relationship with emotions and learning healthy ways to express them.
Mathews Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMFT, LPC
Every individual is unique with their own story and men face specific issues influencing that story. Men face specific issues related to the job, relationships, emotional congruence, or simply acknowledging and addressing common mental health issues. We want to hear your story and the specific problems you are facing. We want to work alongside, collaborating together to find solutions that work for you. Solutions come easier when we face them together. When we work together we can create a personalized plan for you to reach your goal.

Psychologist, PhD
More men are turning to therapy. They’re realizing the benefits of having space to connect with their feelings, deepen their relationships, and find greater meaning in life. As they understand themselves better through therapy, many men gain new insights into the ways they were shaped by masculinity, both for good and for ill. Reckoning with how masculine and patriarchal norms have shaped us can help us build on the strengths found in masculinity and reduce the influence of more toxic elements.
I work with male-identified patients of all sexualities and cultural identities. I have particular strengths working with queer men and same-sex male couples. My research and clinical work has focused on the experiences of queer men, especially bisexual men and queer male military Veterans. Some men elect to work specifically on men’s issues from the start of treatment, and others only address issues of masculinity explicitly when relevant in treatment. Regardless, people who struggle with issues related to masculinity would likely benefit from working with a provider specializing in psychotherapy with men.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., DBSM
Common topics men come to therapy for include navigating relationship dynamics, handling stress, fatherhood and family responsibilities, sexual issues, career pressures, overcoming issues related to emotional repression and mental health issues like depression and anxiety. Dr. Kessler helps with communication skills, self-esteem and developing healthier coping mechanisms. A good men’s issues therapist recognizes the importance of a supportive and understanding environment where men can explore and address these issues without judgment, leading to improved mental health and well-being.
When addressing men's issues, Dr. Kessler often addresses concerns like managing societal expectations and stereotypes, dealing with traditional notions of masculinity, and addressing emotional expression and mental health in a way that aligns with their personal identity.
