Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include men’s issues, masculinity and identity support, stress and emotional regulation, relationship challenges, fatherhood, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ on challenges commonly experienced by men, including navigating identity, emotional expression, relationship difficulties, stress, and life transitions. Many clients come to therapy feeling pressure to “handle it all” or struggle with societal expectations around masculinity, which can contribute to anxiety, depression, or disconnection. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and nonjudgmental, helping clients explore their emotions, build healthier coping strategies, and strengthen relationships. Therapy is a safe space to develop self-awareness, resilience, and confidence while living a life aligned with your values and strengths.

Psychworks Clinic
Psychologist, PHD
At PsychWorks Clinic, we recognize that many men are taught to be strong, self-reliant, and in control, often at the expense of their emotional well-being. We create space for men to talk openly about the pressures they face, the emotions they’ve been told to suppress, and the relationships they want to strengthen.
Our work helps men navigate anger, stress, identity, and vulnerability through approaches like CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing — always with compassion and cultural understanding. Whether it’s learning to manage emotions, improve communication, or redefine strength, we help men build healthier relationships with themselves and others.

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.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., LP. 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.
