Psychologist, PsyD
Patriarchy and masculinity, especially as understood through the lens of whiteness is a culture of violence, oppression, and repression. While we must take accountability and responsibility for the ways western patriarchy has harmed the world and those around us, we can simultaneously acknowledge that patriarchy harms ourselves as well. Coming from place of compassion and courage I work with men to explore and dismantle many of the harmful messages that have been taught to us in our culture and work to cultivate male identities rooted in community, care, and love.

Ann Aspnes
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
I specialize in working with men who are seeking a practical, action-oriented space to address emotional and psychological challenges. Many men are drawn to my structured, empirically backed approach, which provides a clear, transparent framework for growth without feeling vague or open-ended. In our work, we navigate the distinct societal expectations placed on men—including the pressure to appear self-sufficient and the common conditioning that limits emotional expression primarily to anger. I bring specialized skill in anger management, helping you understand anger as a signal rather than a flaw, and equipping you with concrete CBT and emotion-regulation tools to diffuse reactivity, improve communication, and regain control over your life and relationships.

Psychologist, PsyD
In many societies and cultures, men have been conditioned to believe that voicing or showing their emotions equates to a lack of control or power. In other words, men have come to expect that when they authentically display their emotions, they must be weak or something must be “wrong.” Largely, this is due to very real social pressures and repercussions where boys, teens, and adult men are shamed by being bullied, targeted, or physically hurt. As such, these instances can lead to some men feeling as though they are less masculline or are not fulfilling their expected gender role. Therefore, it is crucial to understand that the way men operate is inherently different from women, not because of their gender, but because their behaviors are a byproduct of a system that has reinforced oftentimes ineffective and/or damaging strategies of emotional display to combat real or imagined shame (i.e., physical violence, aggression, name-calling, shutting down, etc.). Instead, what we hope to provide at PCT is a new space in which men are able to safely explore themselves without fear of judgment. Thus, leading to the understanding that a man’s emotional responses to internal and external experiences are a human process, not one that is solely based on gender or gender role expectations.
More often than not, when men enter therapy, much of the work centers around learning how and why they learned to cope with difficult thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Most importantly, though, men are given a space to authentically “be” in a way that society does not always permit. They are able to speak without fear of judgment and think with a renowned sense of emotional awareness. It is this process that ultimately brings men the most fulfillment in their relationships. When we teach men that they are allowed to feel and communicate the emotions that are inherent to every human being, we give them the tools to see a world that they did not previously have access to. In other words, therapy gives men the permission to be the fullest version of themselves for themselves and for those around them.

Psychologist, PhD
For a lot of men, asking for help is the hardest part. You were taught to push through, stay strong, figure it out on your own. Showing vulnerability was not exactly encouraged, and somewhere along the way the weight of that expectation became its own kind of burden.
We see you. And we want you to know that coming here took strength, not weakness.
At CCW International, we create a space where men can talk honestly about what they are carrying without judgment, without having to perform toughness, and without being rushed toward a solution before they have had a chance to actually be heard. Whether you are navigating stress, relationship struggles, identity questions, career pressure, anger, or the quiet depression that nobody around you seems to notice, we are here for all of it.
For our veteran and military clients, we understand the particular weight that comes with a culture that prizes resilience above all else. We know what it costs to carry that alone. And we know that real resilience is not about never struggling. It is about having the courage to get the support you deserve.
You have spent enough time holding it together by yourself. Let us help you carry some of this.
