Men's Issues Therapists in Southeastern Denver, Denver, CO

Welcome to a space where understanding and resilience meet. I am Stephen Rodgers, a therapist deeply committed to specializing in men's issues and trauma. In a world that frequently leans on men for strength, it's essential to acknowledge that everyone, at times, faces challenges that seem insurmountable. Whether it’s the weight of past experiences or the complexities of anxiety and depression impacting your relationships, habits, and emotional wellbeing, these struggles can be both bewildering and disheartening, especially when juxtaposed with societal expectations of unwavering self-sufficiency.

At the Catalyst Center, we believe in delivering the highest quality of care. Our founder, Dr. Erin Jacklin, hand-selected our team of therapists and created a supportive working environment. This means that we can be at our best in order to help you achieve your best. We work hard to match you with the therapist most equipped to support your specific needs because we know that the relationship between the client and therapist is powerful. We are passionate about helping our clients to thrive and create sustainable change in their lives.

I've been working in the mental health field for over 20 years. I've worked with a wide range of issues including but not limited to addictions, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, stress and anger management, men's issues, PTSD, work/life transitions, and couples/relationship issues. I work best with clients who feel stuck, have tried some things on their own that just haven't worked, and need that extra bit of guidance to get to where they want to be, personally and professionally.

Therapy helps us improve our relationship with ourselves and those we love. I specialize in assisting gay men with affirming their values and realizing their personal vision for themselves. I became credentialed as a therapist to help others enhance their daily experience by recognizing patterns needing to shift, improving the experience of the surrounding world, and feeling better overall.

Do you finally feel ready to verbalize and process the pain, trauma, or shame you’ve been holding on to? You may be fed up with feeling isolated, disconnected from your experience, and misunderstood by others. Maybe life feels too overwhelming and confusing for you right now (and that's ok). But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to no longer feel burdened by feelings of guilt, fear, or shame. You’re ready to feel more alive, free and connected to yourself & others. Most of all, you’re ready to live your life with a renewed sense of clarity and purpose. If that resonates with you, I would love to help.

If you are feeling anxious, depressed, or emotionally volatile, you are not alone - according to the National Institute of Mental Health, one in five people in the United States live with a mental health issue.

My clients find me easy to talk to, straightforward, and a great teammate in helping them set and realize their goals. I adapt well to the needs of my clients so that you are able to benefit from our time together.

I seek to work with individuals who are moving toward change, perhaps only knowing that change as a feeling, an inclination, and a belief there is a need for this change. They are driven to reveal more of themselves that has been muted by whatever patterns they've assumed. I believe we all pick up things along the way that we think we have to be or must do to get what we need. My aim is to walk alongside you and see if there are some things we are carrying that no longer serve who we are trying to be and/or become. My purpose is to listen past the words used and get to the true intention of what is longing to be heard.

I help men learn to let go of problematic attachments, navigate relationships and challenging mental health symptoms – develop insight, and improve communication and their quality of life. My specialties are relationships, improving communication, and mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression. The clients I work with are seeking to develop mindfulness of their present time experience and find solutions to challenging life circumstances. (GROUPS have started!

My therapeutic style is welcoming, grounding, and curious. I aim for therapy to be a collaborative space for authentic exploration, which I approach from a open and curious stance. I believe my clients are the experts of their own experiences, and it is my honor and duty to use my knowledge to assist my clients in unfolding, understanding, integrating, and blossoming into their authentic, functional self. To assist my clients in this process, I often utilize personalized metaphor, analogy, reflection, and humor to both support and challenge each client. Often, my therapy style is described as relieving, exciting, and insightful.

I work with men and woman who are wrestling with addiction, PTSD, anger issues, relationship issues, and other life challenges. I believe there are times we feel trapped and long for freedom. I believe a great amount of healing comes from truly connecting with ourselves and with others and I deeply believe in hope. Hope for change and a fuller, freer, and more joyous life. Let's set up a time to meet and I would be honored to travel with you on your journey towards freedom.

There are times in life when one needs backup. Do not "go-it-alone" when it comes to life's challenges, but let me assist you on your path. The only constant in life is change and they come with personal, relational, and professional adjustments. Navigating the changes can be smoother with a trained professional behind you. We all have blind spots, even in the things we are best at doing. So trained perspective can help us discover them and tap into our inner wisdom to make our own decisions.

I work best with clients who are looking inward to illuminate their path forward. I'm passionate about working with couples/relationships to navigate conflict, create connection, build emotional/physical intimacy, heal relationship injuries, decide when to stay together or gracefully separate, and to help new relationships build bonds that will help them thrive. I am also excited to work with individuals by helping them discover themselves and find healing. I believe that our pain and struggles, as well as healing, are often connected to our relationships – with ourselves, our partners and families, and the cultures we live in.

Feeling weighed down by the burdens of life yet struggling to find anyone who understands? Is stress, anxiety, or depression starting to impact relationships, work, or your sex life? Do you feel disconnected, trapped in cycles you can’t change, or haunted by the past? Are you unsure about who you are, who you want to be, or how to love all the parts of yourself? Since men are often expected to be strong, stoic, & steadfast, we often hide behind a mask, unsure about the internal swirl of emotions, doubts, & fears. You're not alone & what you face isn’t insurmountable. The journey of exploration, healing, & transformation begins here.

I have a decade of experience working in a variety of clinical settings including inpatient substance use treatment, outpatient therapy, community mental health, and as a first responder crisis therapist. We all experience crisis in our lives, both large and small, and my goal is to help navigate this distress while building resilience and expanding insight. If you desire tools to navigate life more effectively, build more meaningful relationships with others and deepen the connection to yourself, I would love to hear from you.

(Scheduling in-person and Zoom now) Sometimes we experience disturbing levels of anxiety, depression, anger, or loss. Sometimes we feel disconnected or not able to get a handle on things. In those times emotions can be overwhelming or confusing, and our usual ways of dealing with life don't seem to work anymore. Therapy offers a way to increase awareness of who we are, measure our limits, and expand our personal and interpersonal abilities to make significant changes. I believe we have within us the potential for a healthy and creative life. In the therapy process, we have an opportunity to discover and unleash that potential.

Do you ever ask yourself when you’ll have your life back? You give it all to your kids, partner, and career. It’s time to rediscover your heart and soul. I offer relational and nature-based therapy in Denver and Evergreen, CO.
