Men’s Issues
Russ Webb - Insight Counselling Services
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, RPC, MPCC
There are many kinds of issues that might be considered a men's issue. Men have been acculturated differently than women. And many men have been acculturated in ways that lead to many kinds of problems. Acculturation is the process of what we have learned growing up from our families, teachers, coaches, peers, and even Hollywood about what it means to be a man. It places pressure and limitations on our lives in so many ways. Many issues then arise from this such as problems in our relationship with ourselves, negative thinking patterns, difficulties dealing with failure, inability to seek help or support, difficulty talking about feelings, not knowing how to process our feelings, difficulties knowing how to measure success in our lives, being unable to connect with other men in meaningful ways (and even our partners), and so much more. When men have experienced trauma (whether at work or in childhood, emotional, physical, or sexual) there can be intense pressure to try and contain it, control it, and push it out of their minds. These are all men's issues that can be helpful to address with another male to help break down the walls of isolation that so often can happen between men.

Men’s Issues
Lindsay Kennedy
Psychologist, Registered Psychologist in Alberta
Conceptions of masculinity can make it difficult for many men to seek help, especially for any sort of psychological or emotional difficulty. Traditional male socialization invites men to be strong, stoic, and independent problem solvers, leaving little space for uncertainty and vulnerability.
You may be:
Experiencing stress associated with a demanding job.
Encountering frustrations related to romantic relationships.
Feeling lost, and that you have run out of ideas, time, or motivation.
Concerned that something just isn’t right in your life.
Feeling irritable, stressed, sad, lonely, or anxious more often than you would like.
Thinking about making a change, yet seeming to stay stuck in the same old patterns.
Wishing that someone could know or understand the struggles you face.
Considering counselling involves a significant amount of strength and courage. Counselling can be a place to share with an unbiased party in a confidential setting, and to untangle complicated issues that interfere with your sense of order.

Carl Conradi
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, MSc, MBA
Masculinity and our relationship with it can colour a great many of our psychological experiences. It may form a core piece of our individual identity; broaden or constrain our opportunities for connecting with others; and/or influence the kinds of objectives that we set for ourselves in life. As an integrative therapist who is existentially-informed, I'm always interested to explore what masculinity means to my male (cis and trans) and gender-fluid clients, especially if they themselves define it as a theme of interest.

Dustin Hogan - Men's Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
As men, we've been expected to show up in a certain way our whole lives. Hold our feelings inside. Be the leader. Man up. Tough it out.
When we ask for help, we're told to "man up" or that we're "weak." When our mental health suffers, we're told to get our it together and shake it off.
It's no wonder the male suicide rate is 3 to 4 times that of women.
So many of us are struggling on the inside and never share that struggle with anyone. We suffer in silence. That is not the way forward. It serves no one.
It can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to do it all alone. But together, we can overcome all of these barriers that are stopping you from living your best life. And I’d love to help you get there!
