Men's Issues Therapists in Sebastopol, CA
Therapy for men and those who love them. I specialize in working with men who are reluctant to try therapy—yet ready to become less a stranger to themselves.
Many men carry questions, doubts and pain quietly. Anger is what finally brings them to therapy. Whether it shows up as irritation, frustration, or outbursts you don’t understand, anger is often a signal that something deeper is seeking for attention.

Many of my clients are strong, capable men who still find themselves struggling. They may have trouble expressing their emotions, which affects decision-making, asserting their needs, or setting healthy boundaries. This often leads to feeling disconnected, from themselves, their relationships, and the world around them. Some think their problems aren’t "big enough" to ask for help and feel guilty about seeking support, while others believe they should be able to handle everything on their own. Does this resonate with you?

Life was never meant to be fair - just ask the wildness of nature. Life is filled with joy and sadness; love and grief. This is part of being human. How do we find purpose and meaning in life? We're born with a unique gift; we're wounded by life. Our core wound lies beside our unique gift, our purpose. Our responsibility is to give this gift to our family, friends, community. This underlies all of my work with you as we peel back the layers: what is it you bring to us? It lies beside your deepest pain, regret, what frightens you the most. Our work together is to change your relationship to that wound so you can give your gift.

We all have times when we need help finding our authentic voice. We crave connection and a sense of belonging and balance in our lives. Choosing to begin therapy requires a big commitment to yourself. It means that the discomfort you have been feeling has finally reached a point that requires change. I see therapy as a process of self-discovery: a careful, supportive exploration of how you act, think and feel. I'm a firm believer that telling the truth, first to ourselves and then to others is the starting point for a balanced life.

Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
