Description
Many men silently struggle with mental health challenges like relationship conflicts, anxiety, depression, grief, and the pressures of modern masculinity. As a therapist specializing in men's mental health, I offer support to help men break free from burdensome patterns and build healthier connections. With over five years of experience, I use practical tools such as self-regulation, mindfulness, and communication strategies to guide men toward lasting change.
