Men’s Issues therapists in Shelbyville, Tennessee TN
Adam Luke M.A. LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
There is no greater joy as a therapist than when I sit with someone and watch them have their “Ah-HA!” moment; it’s when our groundwork clicks and that light bulb turns on for a client. It is in that moment that many things can change for a person. That light can finally be the end of toxic internal narratives, that moment can be someone realizing they are worth more than the worst things they have experienced in life. It can be in that moment a person grabs ahold of their passions and steps out of the ambiguity of life cloaked in purpose.
As a therapist I believe that men are born to lead, to love whole-heartedly, to be emotionally intelligent, able to cherish intimate relationships, and able to build a life founded in integrity.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Whether we focus on masculinity or not, the pressures and expectations that men can face create a unique dynamic that can't be ignored. As a psychologist specializing in men's issues, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to reinforce your strengths while exploring the aspects of your life that don't fit or work as well as you'd want. I draw upon the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences can impact the body and brain in ways that disrupt our daily life. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., DBSM
Common topics men come to therapy for include navigating relationship dynamics, handling stress, fatherhood and family responsibilities, sexual issues, career pressures, overcoming issues related to emotional repression and mental health issues like depression and anxiety. Dr. Kessler helps with communication skills, self-esteem and developing healthier coping mechanisms. A good men’s issues therapist recognizes the importance of a supportive and understanding environment where men can explore and address these issues without judgment, leading to improved mental health and well-being.
When addressing men's issues, Dr. Kessler often addresses concerns like managing societal expectations and stereotypes, dealing with traditional notions of masculinity, and addressing emotional expression and mental health in a way that aligns with their personal identity.
