Gay men, let's cut to the chase. You have probably landed on my profile because you are seeking a therapist to help you with anxiety, depression, or relationship issues. Most likely, you've had therapy and it didn't go as expected or anticipated. Maybe the therapist didn't challenge you enough or engage with you in session. If you are seeking therapy for the first time, you are probably feeling overwhelmed and have no idea how therapy works or what to expect. Gay men have their own unique needs and challenges and they want a therapist who has experienced the same.

Therapy is an investment in you! Life can be difficult when things in your life change unexpectedly or don't go in the direction you had hoped. Acceptance of uncomfortable things in our lives can be a challenge and leave us feeling unbalanced and stuck. Everyone has a story and often needs to share it to be able to begin their path toward healing. In sharing it you can find hope, explore what strengths you developed as a result of your experiences and find empowerment in them. You and your story have value, are important to your life journey and can guide you in creating a narrative that supports your growth.

Men's Issues Therapists

Is therapy for men different than it is for women?

Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.

How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can men prepare for therapy?

Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.

What should men know about the process of therapy?

One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
