Therapy for Men
No pressure. No commitment. Just practical, goal-focused therapy to help you navigate life’s challenges and become the man you want to be.
Do men really go to therapy?
Yes, they really do!
Here at Fresh Solutions Therapy, about 40-60% of our clients at any given time are men!
Surprised to to hear that? Most people are!
Men are often socialized to believe that:
They should be strong
They should be able to control their emotions
They should be able to figure things out by themselves
Asking for support is showing weakness
And we’re here to spread the word that that’s outdated thinking, and simply not true!
What kind of men go to therapy?
ALL kinds of men seek out therapy! Most of our men’s therapy clients are busy professionals facing the challenges of balancing career demands with their relationship, family responsibilities, and friends, not to mention their own needs and interests.
Many clients first seek out a men’s therapist because they’re struggling with a specific issue, but they stay because they realize that having that time to just focus on themselves and their needs makes a huge difference in their life.
Therapy can help you manage stress better, feel more confident, make better decisions, have healthier relationships, and become the best version of you!
What do men go to therapy for?
The most common issues our men’s therapy clients reach out for support with are stress, anxiety, and relationship issues, but we can help with LOTS of other issues as well!
Some of the other areas we can offer support include depression, PTSD, childhood trauma, self-confidence and self-esteem, anger management, behaviour change, grief, parenting challenges, and career changes.
We also offer therapy for men who just want to gain a better understanding of themselves, their behaviour, what they want and need to be happy in life, and how they have been influenced by societal pressures of masculinity.
