Men’s Issue Psychologist 


Studies have shown that women are much more likely than men to seek therapy. However, just like women, men can benefit from having a confidential, private space to explore any issues that might be coming up for them. The term “men’s issues” can refer to any number of concerns men might face, including anger management, intimacy issues, domestic violence, mid-life crises, grief or loss – in addition to mental health issues like anxiety or depression. If you have found yourself experiencing any of these issues (or others), reach out to one of our Psychologists with extensive experience on men’s issues.

Let’s Talk about the F word… Feelings

A part of you wants to go there but you also know that men are supposed to be strong. You have learned that you are definitely not supposed to talk about your feelings. Yet, because you are not talking about how you feel, you stuff these feelings down. You do not ask for what you need, so your feelings tend to be more reactionary. Experienced therapists working with men can help.

What are feelings on overdrive?

These reactionary feelings come out in the form of anger, frustration or you might completely shut down. When in a relationship these overdrive feelings can hinder connection and lead to high levels of conflict in relationships. You hear your partner saying that they want more emotional connection, yet you try and don’t seem to hit the mark with your partner. So, you agree to try, but you never do, mainly because it is not usually at the top of your mind. This then leads to disappointment from your partner, which then leads to conflict and disconnection, and the pattern continues.

How Therapy for Men can help.

Our psychologists work with men who want to develop the skills to enable emotional flexibility and emotional intelligence. These tools enable men to find a balance, manage their emotions, and interact with others in a healthy way. Emotions can be overwhelming and flooding. Additionally, the needs of your spouse, family, and social pressures add even more layers of difficulty to an already complicated situation. I believe strongly that men benefit tremendously from developing a solid social and emotional foundation. The advantage of learning how to recognize, manage, and communicate our emotions has lifetime benefits. It is essential for fathers to model, develop, and nurture both emotional and social skills with their sons and daughters.

Examples of emotions on overdrive:

  • Anger, irritability, or aggressiveness towards others
  • Anxiety in common social situations
  • Obsessive thinking or unwillingness to compromise with others
  • Unhealthy compulsive behaviour that interferes with work, family, or social situations
  • Noticeable changes in mood, energy level, or appetite
  • Difficulty sleeping or sleeping too much
  • Unable to concentrate, feel restless, or on edge
  • Feeling regularly stressed from work or ongoing commitments
  • Ongoing sadness or hopelessness
  • Feeling unusually flat or having trouble feeling positive for an extended period of time
  • Isolating oneself from family and friends
