Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you aren't reaching your goals, feel unfulfilled, or struggle to keep close relationships, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats relationship and interpersonal issues typically using Functional Analytic Psychotherapy and/or Assertiveness Training. These approaches combine new insights with new skills so you can be more effective in your relationships and re-build damaged relationships.

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.

Psychologist, Ph.D.
Men face many challenges in reaching out for help and seeking therapy. Men are more likely to tell others they are fine out of fear and concern of being judged or viewed as weak. Men may also want to avoid feeling like a burden to loved ones, friends, and family. Men can minimize or not recognize their own challenges or difficulties which can result in them bottling up or avoidance. Men are often more likely to externalize emotional pain or mental health issues by showing anger and engaging in high-risk behaviors. All of these factors can negatively impact the mental health and well-being of men. It doesn't have to be like this. Therapy can help you find better ways to cope with the difficulties in your life.

Psychologist, PhD
Many men struggle with finding a safe place to experience emotion or connect deeply with anyone other than a romantic partner. This can create unnecessary stress on relationships or lead to a sense of isolation. Learning to identify and process emotions in a safe space and build strong, connected relationships can help men find connection and peace in today's difficult world.
