Psychoanalysis provides the most in-depth, long-lasting treatment. Ideal for the person who has tried medications and briefer therapies unsuccessfully. Like exercise and the violin, concentrated​ long work is required for lifelong growth in the ability to love, work and play, while containing suffering, loss and uncertainty. Quick fixes limited to a pill or briefer therapy, only if insurance pays, tend to be quite expensive long run. Psychoanalysis seeks to get at the underlying roots and meanings beginning in infancy and childhood that become recurrent problematic adult relationship patterns, internal conflicts and body issues.

You've done the hard work. The degrees and credentials on your wall prove that you know what you're doing, but for some reason, in the back of your mind you still have doubts. You know you're qualified for your position, but you find yourself feeling isolated and alone in your office. You feel pressured to keep going to work to make your family proud or provide for your family, but you feel overwhelmed. You've considered leaving and working somewhere else, but you really aren't sure what is the right move. All you know is that you want relief from the worry and stress. You want to flourish and feel at peace.

Male Therapists

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?

There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.

How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?

Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?

Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?

Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
