We live in a fast paced world with many pressures and it is often easy to let this stressful world get the best of us. We forget to take care of ourselves, and before we know it we are experiencing anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, and many other issues. If left untreated these ailments can spiral out of control and leave us feeling overwhelmed, helpless and hopeless. If this sounds like you, and you have been experiencing some of these feelings, and you feel life has spun out of control, don't you think it's time to get back to life?

You have reached a critical juncture in your life and are in search of a therapist who can assist you in navigating the factors that have led you to this point, where seeking help becomes necessary. It is possible that you may perceive this as your sole option, as your support network may have either disappeared, or distanced themselves due to addiction. The prospect of making a change may seem overwhelming, as if the task is insurmountable or too late. However, this is not the case. There is no need to wait any longer for change; you possess the ability to initiate change, even when you feel powerless in the face of addiction.

If you are struggling with conflicts within your family or struggling with your own personal mental health, you are not alone. A case study in 2020 showed that mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, tripled in adults during the pandemic. This also includes a flare up in conflicts between couples and families. These situations can become overwhelming at times and seeking help from a counseling professional may be the hardest step to take, however, it will also be the most rewarding.

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.
