Do you often find yourself lost in thought, feeling like you're spiraling or trapped in your head? Are you mentally and emotionally exhausted from constantly trying to 'figure out' the meaning behind your distressing thoughts? Perhaps checking things, counting, or ruminating temporarily relieves your distress until you find yourself NEEDING to do them over and over again. You're tired, overwhelmed, hopeless, and afraid. You want relief but find security in the chaos. You're not alone.

You wake up every day feeling like you’re living a lie. You are always super careful with what you say or do to make sure you’re not judged or treated differently by others. Maybe you even catch yourself wishing you were “normal” and hating who you are. It can be very confusing trying to navigate our world as a gay man. You often feel on edge and exhausted trying to fit in with the norm of what our society says a man should be!

I work primarily as a social worker, in which I support parents and their children, provide them with resources, and help them be successful in any way that they may need. When working with new families, we start by asking three basic questions: - What is working well? What are you currently worried about? What needs to change? I approach counseling in very much the same way.

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.
