Men's issues can come in many forms such as the loss of identity, family dynamic changes, and major life events. You may be facing life changes in solitude due to the idea that a man is supposed to be strong and independent at all times. You may feel like you've never reached your potential, or you just may feel there's something missing from your life. This may cause you to feel a lack of energy, loss of interest in the things you previously enjoyed.
It doesn't have to feel like this, it’s ok to admit you need help.
What is it to be a man? If you look around you there are so many mixed messages around this subject. There is a large stigma surrounding men and mental health throughout the years, it can be challenging to push back on stereotypes. Commonly, it is heard that a man must push down feelings and ‘toughen up’ despite how they may feel in order to be strong. Some men never truly get to figure out who they really are and end up fighting against their own nature trying to cram it into a package that doesn't fit.
Aging can be very difficult, even humbling. There are things physically you can no longer do. You can feel like your own body is betraying you. You may end up with cognitive issues, physical health issues, or sexual dysfunction. These are only a few of the issues that can be associated with aging. It's ok to need help understanding what’s going on and to learn some coping skills to help.
There are many issues that come along with changes in our lives. Career changes can leave us unsure and anxious. Divorce can cause isolation, depression, and substance use. A death can change the family dynamic and shift the roles that each member plays. We can look at any number of changes that can happen in our lives that bring extra stressors, testing our resiliency and pushing us to our limits. It’s ok to need help with these things, it’s a complicated world, sometimes an unforgiving one.

Our approach to men's issues integrates several methods, including Talk Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Sometimes it’s just a matter of talking it through, or we may have to look at reframing some of our preconceived ideas about masculinity and what it is to be a man. Other times we have to learn to accept that there are some things we can’t control. We may never be the action movie star, or the sensitive leading man. It’s ok though because it’s ok to be you.
