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 Mt Pleasant 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.
Therapy for men has many aspects of traditional psychotherapy, but it also maintains a clear person-centered and humanistic approach. Thriveworks Mt Pleasant 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.
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.
Do you often feel alone, sad, frustrated, or angry but prefer not to acknowledge or talk about it? Do you try to overcome your feelings by ignoring them, only to find it increasingly difficult to manage?

Why Men Seek Therapy
Cultural norms, stigma, and rigid beliefs can prevent men from processing emotions properly, leading to increased stress and physical symptoms. This can eventually lead to a crisis response. Thriveworks Mount Pleasant Counseling wants to help you navigate these feelings before a crisis occurs. Please call us at (843) 588-1846 to set up an appointment today.
Many men seek therapy for the following reasons:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Anger management
- Substance abuse
- Relationship issues
- Financial concerns
- Low self-esteem
- PTSD
Symptoms of these issues can appear differently in men. For example, anger, substance abuse, and sleeping difficulties could be symptoms of depression, not just sadness or loneliness. Managing these alone can be confusing and upsetting. The therapists at Thriveworks Mount Pleasant are experts in counseling men through these issues as you work towards a better you.
