Why Do Men Need Therapy?
Our society has long taught us that men should be strong and stoic. Any man who struggles, according to our culture, is weak. That is a lie. Men deserve to express their emotions and to be understood. That is a human right that has, sadly, been taken away. Men experience anger, trauma, isolation, and stress, but are often discouraged from talking about any of it. Therapy for men can help you change. You deserve a space to talk about your men’s issues from someone who understands. Therapy can help you to understand what drives you and to improve your relationship with yourself and with others. You can gain insight and learn valuable strategies to help you more effectively deal with depression, anxiety, and stress. Most importantly, you can feel understood and realize that you are not alone, you are not weak, and you are worthy of care and consideration.
