Commonly Asked Questions

What type of therapy is best for men?

Through experience in working with thousands of men in therapy, including professional athletes, physicians, entrepreneurs and executives, I’ve found that the “best” therapy is highly depedent on individual goals. With that said, there are certain approaches that consistently tend to resonate more as a result of there practical, results-driven nature. These include:

Solution-Focused Therapy - This short-term approach focuses on quick and practical solutions over prolonged analysis, which can greatly benefit those in search of faster progress in addressing specific challenges.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT can help men accept difficult emotions while committing to meaningful actions aligned with their values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT is a standout choice for men because it zeroes in on problem solving and transforming negative thought patterns into constructive behaviors. I’ve found men in Tampa often juggle demanding careers and family roles, and CBT provides actionable tools to manage stress, anxiety, and depression effectively.

Should a male get a male therapist?

The simple answer is, it’s up to you. Based on numerous studies and trials, there is no clear evidence to suggest men benefit more or less from therapy based on the therapists gender. What these studies often do suggest though that the single greatest factor in achieving therapeutic goals is the therapeutic relationship (how well do you connect with your therapist).

What does therapy do for men?

You may have heard that therapy can be critical during certain “seasons” of life or for specific “reasons”. We most often help men in Tampa & St. Petersburg, Florida with:
