COUNSELING FOR MEN | BROOMFIELD & LONGMONT, CO

Therapy That Meets the Modern Man

For generations, men have been told to bottle it up. Today, you're looking for more: better relationships, less burnout, and a clear sense of purpose. As a therapist for men, I offer counseling built for those who are ready to move past the old rules and redefine success on their own terms.

This isn't just venting; it's a strategic, goal-driven partnership. We'll confront the pressures and negative self-talk that keep you stuck, then use evidence-based, action-focused interventions to build lasting change.

I specialize in providing confidential counseling specifically tailored to men. For too long, the traditional mental health field has failed to fully address how men experience and express their struggles—often showing up as anger, isolation, or burnout rather than sadness.

For men, mental health struggles are often viewed as a personal failure or a sign of weakness. My approach acknowledges and breaks through the cultural stigma you face. I use evidence-based, strengths-focused therapy to create a non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and supported.

Together, we move past surface issues with an action-oriented plan to support deep healing and achieve your goals. This strategy involves a three-pronged approach: 1) managing current symptoms and triggers in the present, 2) resolving old issues from the past, and 3) building resilience for the future.

We won’t just talk about problems. This isn't passive therapy—it's an engaged partnership dedicated to harnessing your strengths to achieve real, tangible change and get you living the life you want.

Therapists for Men Emphasize Clarity and Collaboration:

I reject the idea that therapy is just endless discussion.

I structure my services to offer a strategic path that moves you towards your goals:

  • Action & Results: Our work is practical and moves the ball forward. I prioritize tangible outcomes and measurable progress over unstructured discussion.

  • Strengths First: I don't focus only on what's broken. I highlight your existing courage and problem-solving skills, using those core strengths as the engine for change.

  • Structure & Expectations: You’ll never be left guessing. I ensure transparency by outlining the therapeutic process, confirming goals, and clearly explaining how we'll track success.

  • Collaborative Partnership: We ditch the hierarchy. Your experience, insights, and input are vital, making our relationship a true partnership dedicated to achieving your goals.

  • Comfortable Communication: I use communication styles where conversation feels natural, allowing you to feel respected, heard, and meaningfully engaged.

Common Reasons Why Men Seek Therapy

  • Depression and Anxiety

    While classic symptoms exist, men often present depression as chronic irritability, anger, reckless behavior, or fatigue rather than overt sadness. Anxiety is often framed as unmanageable stress or difficulty relaxing.

  • Anger Management

    Men frequently enter therapy because their anger or aggression is causing problems at work, home, or in their relationships. The goal is often to control the outbursts, which leads to exploring the underlying feelings (like sadness or fear) that the anger is masking.

  • Feeling "Stuck"

    A pervasive sense of being unfulfilled, lost, or having a lack of purpose (often called anhedonia) is a major driver, often related to career dissatisfaction, burnout, or a general sense of being disconnected from life.

  • Communication Breakdown

    Struggling to express emotions, needs, or thoughts clearly in a relationship, leading to frequent arguments or emotional distance.

  • Infidelity or Conflict

    Seeking help to manage the fallout of marital or partnership discord, including divorce, separation, or issues of trust.

  • Family Stress

    Adjusting to the responsibilities of fatherhood or navigating conflicts with children or other family members.

  • Substance Abuse

    Using alcohol or drugs to "self-medicate" or numb emotional pain. Therapy is sought when these habits become uncontrollable and interfere with daily life.

  • Workaholism

    Seeking help when an unhealthy obsession with work or career success leads to personal burnout, isolation, or the neglect of family and physical health.

  • Life Stage Adjustments

    Navigating major life transitions like a career change, retirement, becoming a father, or a mid-life crisis.
