Our therapists provide counseling to help men in Denver improve their lives and mental health.
Counseling for men in Denver
Are you a man in Denver feeling the pressure to be constantly strong or maintain a certain identity? You’re not alone. Many men experience mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, stress, and anger management. If you’ve been searching for “men’s counseling Denver” wondering if it’s time to start, My Denver Therapy provides a safe and supportive space to start therapy with both male and female therapists in Denver, Greenwood Village, and Lone Tree.
We understand the unique pressures men face in today’s society. That’s why we offer tailored men’s counseling to address your specific needs. Unlike a one-size-fits-all approach, our therapists provide personalized support, recognizing the complexities of male experiences. While men’s group therapy can be valuable, individual men’s therapy often allows for deeper exploration and personal growth.
Our team includes highly sought-after male therapists in Denver who specialize in men’s issues, including stress, depression, trauma, relationships, self-esteem, and personal growth, and are trained in effective therapy methods, including EMDR and CBT. We also have female therapists specializing in men’s issues for men who feel more comfortable sharing their experiences with a woman.
If you’re looking for men’s counseling in Denver, My Denver Therapy is here to help. Reaching out is a sign of strength, and our therapists are dedicated to supporting you on your journey to well-being. Contact us today to schedule a confidential consultation and discover how our counseling services for men can help you thrive.
How traditional masculinity affects men
Many men grow up learning that it’s unmanly to express their emotions or go to counseling, especially for “softer” feelings like grief, sadness, and fear.
For men, expressing certain feelings can oftentimes be seen as indicators of weakness, instead of regular emotions. This can lead to a number of mental health problems, including depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. Men are more likely than women to use nearly all types of illicit drugs, and substance abuse is a common reason why men seek counseling.
Traditional masculinity emphasizes power, social status, and self-reliance over social connection and emotional expression. This can make it difficult for men in Denver to ask for help, even when they need it. Men’s counseling can help you learn to understand and manage your emotions, build healthy relationships, and cope with stress and difficult life events and life changes.
Why men often avoid counseling
Men are far less likely than women to seek mental health care, even though they have higher suicide rates, misuse alcohol at greater rates, and are more likely to use illegal drugs.
Even as society is changing, this is often because of traditional ideas about masculinity, which can make mental health issues seem like a character deficit or a sign of weakness.
However, therapy for men can be incredibly beneficial. It can help men to understand and manage their emotions, build healthy relationships, cope with stress, heal from trauma, and improve their overall well-being.
If you’re a man who is struggling with your mental health, our Denver therapists for men can help and there is no shame in asking for it. Our therapists can help you to find the best way to address your specific needs.
How men can benefit from counseling
Here are some of the unique benefits of counseling for men:
- Increased earnings: A 2017 study found that men who go to therapy experience a 12% rise in income. This increase continues, even after stopping therapy.
- Improved relationships: Through men’s counseling, you get to know yourself better. When you know yourself, it becomes easier to communicate with your friends and loved ones.
- Empowerment: Counseling can help men develop decision-making skills and resilience to feel confident as you build your life. You’ll learn how to make healthier choices and manage disappointments.
- Improved health: Therapy can help you learn strategies for managing stress and life changes. Taking time for your mental health can help you manage physical health issues as well.
Why do men go to counseling?
Men go to therapy for a variety of reasons, just like women, teens, couples, and families. Some common reasons for starting therapy include:
- Parenting challenges and family therapy
- Couples therapy
- Domestic violence
- Substance abuse
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Low self-esteem
- Trauma
- Sexual orientation or gender identity
- Grief processing

Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you – all of the expectations, all of the beliefs – and becoming who you are.

Meet our therapists
My Denver Therapy is one of the largest therapy private practices in Colorado with many of the best, most requested mental health therapists in the Denver Metro area.
As a therapist-owned practice with over 100 years of combined experience, we care about seeing our clients heal, grow, and thrive. We’re one of the only therapy practices in Colorado with licensed professional counselors, marriage and family therapists, addiction counselors, social workers, and psychiatric nurse practitioners who actively see new clients in person and online.
Whether you’re an adult, teen, young adult, couple, or family, our inclusive therapist team is built to specialize in clients of all ages, faiths, backgrounds, and life experiences.
Our practice started with one therapist in a shared office suite, but we’ve grown to help thousands of people in Colorado by providing in-person therapy at our conveniently located Denver Metro area counseling offices in Denver, Greenwood Village, and Lone Tree, plus online therapy for clients throughout Colorado. Because of the way our team works and has grown over time, our therapists also provide consultation for other therapists and private practices throughout the Denver Metro area.
Our therapists provide some of the most innovative, effective, and in-demand forms of therapy available today, including EMDR, Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, CBT, DBT, and IFS. We also have more therapists trained in Ketamine-assisted therapy, EMDR, and more teen therapists and young adult counselors than nearly every other private practice in Denver.
We know that our clients want to find the best therapists in Denver, so our team includes therapists of different ages with a wide range of backgrounds, specialities, and experiences to help you find the right fit. We’ll match you with one of our therapists who is the best for your goals, location, budget, schedule, and what you want to work on to help you get started quickly.
We’re out of network for insurance, Tricare, and are unable to take Medicaid or Medicare, but most of our therapists’ rates are lower than the local and national averages for therapy. Also, we don’t charge separate intake or administration fees or charge more for specialized therapy methods like EMDR.
All of our therapists take a client-focused approach to counseling and approach each session with a commitment to your progress and growth.
