Support for Men
Men’s health encompasses both physical and mental wellbeing. Many men face unique challenges due to societal expectations, hormonal changes and aging. All of these can impact their mental health, leading to anxiety, depression, stress and more.
Society expects men to be strong, stoic and self-reliant. This pressure often stops them from acknowledging mental health concerns and suppressing their emotions makes their struggles worse.
Men’s mental health is also impacted by common physical health problems, such as hormonal changes, sexual health issues and various age-related conditions. Understanding the wide-ranging factors that can impact men’s health, we can get one step closer to promoting better overall wellbeing.
There are several physical issues that may lead signs that a man is struggling with his mental health. For example, hormonal fluctuations and testosterone decline may be a natural part of aging but leads to mood swings, irritability and depression. Sexual health issues like erectile dysfunction can also affect levels of stress, anxiety and self-esteem, while chronic conditions like heart disease and diabetes can exacerbate frustration, helplessness and depression.
Men experience and exhibit mental health issues differently than women. Understanding the signs of mental health issues is crucial for early intervention and effective treatment.
Physical health isn’t just about the body – it can affect mental wellbeing just as much, leading to mood swings, irritability, stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression.
“From start to finish, it taught me so much about myself.”
“Thank you for challenging me when I needed it.”
“I can’t believe how much progress I’ve made in a short time.”
“After many years of therapy, you are the first person who gets me.”
Many men are reluctant to seek help. After all, society often expects them to be strong and self-reliant at all times. This causes many to think admitting to mental health struggles is a sign of weakness or failure.
Recognising and addressing mental health issues is an act of courage and self-care. We have to break the stigma and encourage open conversations about mental health to normalise the experience, encouraging men to share their struggles and seek support.
Therapy offers a safe, confidential space to explore issues and develop effective coping strategies. By seeking help, men can gain the support they need to improve their wellbeing and lead happier, healthier and more fulfilling lives.
At Dr Jo Gee Psychotherapy, we provide evidence-based treatments tailored to address everyone’s unique needs, including men. Our gold-standard approach to treatment includes:
Comprehensive assessments and medication management to ensure you receive the most effective treatment for your mental health needs.
A safe space to share your thoughts, feelings and experiences. We use a range of techniques such as CBT and CBT to address various emotional difficulties.
