Therapy for Men: Breaking the Stigma and Finding the Right Therapeutic Fit

For generations, men have been told to “tough it out,” “man up,” or push aside their emotions. While society has made progress, many men still feel pressure to carry their struggles silently. The truth is—seeking therapy is not a sign of weakness but a powerful step toward growth, healing, and strength. At Caring Therapists, we are proud to support men in their journeys by offering therapy that speaks directly to their unique experiences.

The Unique Experience of Men in Therapy

Men often face different challenges when it comes to mental health. Cultural norms can discourage openness, while expectations around work, family, and relationships add layers of stress. Common concerns include:

• Performance pressures at work or in personal life

• Relationship challenges with partners, family, or children

• Managing anger, stress, and anxiety in healthy ways

• Navigating major life transitions such as career changes, parenthood, or loss

• Breaking cycles of silence around depression and trauma

The therapeutic space gives men the chance to explore these issues without judgment. It’s a place to be real, vulnerable, and authentic—something many men haven’t experienced elsewhere.

Male Therapists at Caring Therapists

While every therapist is trained to work with men, some men feel more comfortable connecting with another male therapist who understands their lived experience. At Caring Therapists, we are fortunate to have a strong team of male therapists serving Broward and Palm Beach Counties:

• Dr. David Landry – Bringing a wealth of clinical expertise and a warm, compassionate approach, Dr. Landry helps men address challenges with confidence and clarity.

• David Gala – Known for his supportive and approachable style, David empowers men to embrace change and move forward in healthier ways.

• Garrett Cooper – With a deep understanding of men’s issues, Garrett helps clients navigate stress, relationships, and emotional health.

• Brandon Giostra – Brandon offers a grounded and relatable therapeutic style, creating a safe environment for men to explore and grow.

Our male therapists understand the barriers men face and provide a therapeutic space that respects strength while encouraging vulnerability.

Finding the Right Fit

The key to successful therapy is finding a therapist who feels like the right match. At Caring Therapists, we guide men in selecting a therapist who meets their unique needs, goals, and personality. Whether you connect with a male therapist or another member of our experienced team, the priority is always your comfort and growth.

Breaking the Stigma

Every time a man walks into therapy, he challenges outdated stereotypes and shows others that healing and self-improvement are powerful. By normalizing therapy for men, we create stronger families, healthier communities, and a brighter future.

At Caring Therapists, we’re here to help men break the stigma, find their voice, and create lives
