Counselling For Men
“Regardless of who you are or what you do for a living or where you come from, it [mental health] doesn’t discriminate. We all kind of go through it.”
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
Yes, men’s mental health matters
We get it. It can be hard for guys these days.
The world has changed so quickly, and if you feel like you’ve been living in survival mode for years, you’re not alone. Men are starting to wake up from years of living on autopilot, just going through the motions and now they want more. We’re here to tell you that with the right care, a better life is possible.
Question: Do you find yourself feeling stressed, wrestling with frustration, or like you're speaking a language no one else understands? Feeling that way is more common than you think, but even though it’s common, it’s not exactly an ideal head space.
When you’re stressed, frustrated and feeling misunderstood - that makes it hard to connect with your loved ones (or even want to). With that disconnection, your relationships may become strained and then things can start to really spiral downwards.
Here's the deal: there are tools you can gain and strategies you can learn that will help you to feel more confident, capable and to communicate better. The men’s therapists at The Dot are here to support you with that learning and rebuilding process.
Many counselling approaches emphasize the need for men to "open up to their feelings." While this part is definitely helpful, it often misses the deeper needs that you may have, particularly in the areas of finding more meaning, connection & purpose in your life. We’re here to help you learn new tools that you can use to cope better into your daily life, and we’re also able to help you to go deeper, to explore your values, to tap into your own wisdom, so you can move from just living, to building a meaningful life.

Isolation & Loneliness

Fatherhood
Mid-life crises

Get to know your counsellors.
Our psychotherapists, being mostly men themselves, get the nuances of men’s counselling. They’re fathers, husbands, and brothers. They can relate to the challenges you are facing and offer guidance from a place of personal insight.
They are here to empower you with the tools you need to to overcome your current challenges, so you can get the life you want.
Whatever you’re struggling with, we can help, and you don’t need to be in crisis before you reach out.
Our counseling approach is geared towards helping you tap back into your inner wisdom. This isn't just about patching up wounds; it's about deep-rooted healing and growth.
Think of counseling as a team sport. You and your counselor are co-captains, working in tandem to achieve a singular goal—empowering you to elevate the quality of your life, now and for the future.
As mental health professionals, our role is to help you pinpoint the roadblocks in your life. We guide you in mapping out your path and spotting opportunities for growth along the way.
We don't just skim the surface. We go deep to understand what's anchoring you down and causing the big struggles. Once we've identified the core issues, we strategize, equip you with the right tools, and set you up for success.
Our ultimate goal is more than just relief; it's about empowerment. By the end of our sessions, you won't just feel better—you'll be primed to boldly move forward towards the life you've always wanted.
Or, let us help you find your therapist.
The form takes less than 60 seconds to complete, and we’ll reach out with a couple of options for a free 20 minute consultation.
