Therapy for Men in MA & ME

Reconnect with yourself. Redefine strength. Live with more ease.

Sound like you?

You did everything “right” but still feel alone.

Most men were never taught how to talk about their feelings. Instead, the message was to tough it out, stay in control, and keep moving. Maybe you heard things like “man up” or “don’t be weak,” and after a while, shutting down just felt safer than risking vulnerability.

But what started as self-protection can slowly cut you off - from your own emotions, from the people you care about, and from the part of you that just wants to be seen for who you are. You’ve worked hard to build your life, yet it still feels heavy, disconnected, and not as satisfying as you thought it would be.

How we’ll work together

Let’s get you back on track.

Working together means slowing down and paying attention to the parts of yourself that have been overlooked. Instead of pushing feelings aside or trying to manage everything on your own, you’ll have space to sort through what really matters while knowing you do not have to perform or prove anything.

In our sessions, we’ll look at how old beliefs have shaped your choices and begin to imagine what life could feel like without those limits. We’ll explore what strength, openness, and connection mean to you today and how you want those qualities to show up in your relationships and daily life.

Therapy is also a place to practice: putting words to feelings you’ve rarely spoken, learning how to ask for support, or trying out new ways of relating that feel more honest and alive. With time, this work can help you feel more connected to yourself and others, more grounded in who you are, and more able to live a life that feels your own.

  • Men face unique pressures around masculinity, emotional suppression, fiscal and career success, and being physically fit. They’re also more likely to feel ashamed about facing mental health struggles, which makes them less likely to reach out for help. As someone who specializes in working with men and who has a deep understanding of these issues, I can help you figure out what’s wrong and tackle the issues you’re facing.

  • It’s definitely a part of the work, but we’ll come up for air and shift to lighter topics when you need it. My biggest priority is making sure you feel safe and understood, and we’ll go at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

  • It really depends on what’s going on in your life and how much support you need and want. Many of my clients have been with me for over a year because they enjoy talking to someone who gets them, and others decide to move on after accomplishing their therapy goals. I’ll help you figure out what makes sense for you.

It’s time to take care of yourself—you’re worth it.
