Starting Therapy for men

What is Therapy for men?

Therapy for men maintains a focus on the emotional and mental impacts of being a man in society, dealing with issues like the pressures of toxic masculinity and the traditional familial roles of men, among others. Thriveworks Grand Rapids Charter Township therapists who specialize in treating men work to create a safe space for them to emote and care for their mental well-being without fear of judgment.

How does Therapy for men work?

Therapy for men has many aspects of traditional psychotherapy, but also maintains a clear person-centered and humanistic approach. Thriveworks Grand Rapids Charter Township therapists will work with men to reach their therapy goals through self-reflection and introspection—uncovering specific emotional, behavioral, and mental patterns that are having a negative effect or are inhibiting personal growth and slowly working to change them over time.

Is Therapy for men conducted in person or online?

Therapy for men at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Therapy for men last?

Therapy for men can last for a few months or occur over the course of years, often continuing until the client feels that their goals are met and their desired growth has been achieved. However, it will likely last at least five months, as that is the average amount of time it takes for the therapeutic process to take effect and bring about lasting change.

Need more help deciding?

In today’s age, men are required to be strong and sensitive. This usually requires ignoring your own needs and being aware of the feeling and emotions of those around you. Men need to be excellent at their job, in good shape, have lots of great friends, be a wonderful family man and a caring and sensitive spouse or partner. Men nearly need to be a superhero to fulfill all of the demands on their time! At Thriveworks Grand Rapids, we understand how challenging this can be, and have counselors that are able to help men process their unique needs in therapy.

There are many areas in which men may need counseling, such as:

  • Addictions
  • Life coaching
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Grief counseling
  • Couples counseling
  • Career counseling
  • Sexual issues
  • Workaholism

This is just a partial list, and you may not see your need given here. However, Thriveworks Grand Rapids, Forest Hills men’s counselors can help you process your feelings and emotions, and determine how to best move forward. We will create a plan of action together, and walk with you in the journey of change and progress.

Unlike many offices, at Thriveworks Grand Rapids, Forest Hills we do not have waiting lists. We have appointments available for new clients within 24 hours. You may have been considering counseling for quite some time. When you finally make that first call, the last thing you want to hear is that the first available appointment is in a few weeks. At Thriveworks Grand Rapids, we are ready when you need us.

Call Thriveworks today. Let’s get to work.

I am loving Thriveworks not only for the convenience of virtual appointments, but this is the first place I’ve tried that has actually helped. My therapist is incredibly kind and helpful and is amazing at helping me with any issues I’m struggling with. They paired me with a therapist that is experienced in the specific areas I needed help with, and it has been wonderful. I would absolutely recommend Thriveworks!

My son saw Denise for the first time recently and she was great. She seemed very well informed in every area and so willing to help my son with his anxiety. She actually spent time with us and seemed to care. I'm so glad we found her.

I was in need of a psychiatrist for chronic depression and anxiety. I came across thrive having only a 4 month wait instead 9 to 12 month wait with any other psychiatrist. This was wonderful news. I met Denise as my clinician. She is very empathetic very knowledgeable. She has helped me alot sine my first vist. She is very dedicated to her patients which I truly appreciate. I would highly recommend her for any psychiatric needs. I think she goes above and beyond her role. She is a caring individual. There should be more people like Denise. She needs to be recognized for her work.
