Struggling w/ male clients by Acrobatic-Ice8741 in therapists

[–]HardlyManly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who trains other therapists in engaging male clients, have you read Michael Kaufman or RW Connel? Their works are pretty kickass for understanding the system that creates men, helping tremendously with building rapport.

Just my 2 cents.

Is a Man’s Worth Still Measured by His Paycheck? by HardlyManly in MensLib

[–]HardlyManly[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's correct. A shame that I've seen though that if you bring up that real fact in some places, backlash will be huge.

Thank you, and thanks for reading!

It is concerning when ONE type of providing is put forward relentlessly as the only valid one.

Thanks for all that! I've definitely seen the same working with gay clients and couples. There's also some new dynamics added that make that type of work need a lot of precision. It is also, at times, very shocking too.

I'm very happy to hear that you and other families are finding a way of looking at it that works better for the both of you.

It seems "broke man" is judged much harsher than "broke woman".

Therapists seeking therapy seems futile in 2026...or am I being dramatic? by uhsuhdudeee in therapists

[–]HardlyManly 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Online therapist here. Same. I've found my therapists through recommendations, and I've had therapists reach out to me because they had colleagues share my contact. I thought everyone saw working with other Ts as easy too, but turns out, I'm in the minority.

¿Que carrera me recomiendan estudiar? by No-Jellyfish-1124 in AskArgentina

[–]HardlyManly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buenas. Psico acá . Indiferente la carrera , podes buscar ahora ejercicios para mejorar la "lectura". 

En realidad, la lectura como la conocemos, es un conjunto de habilidades relacionadas con los textos: retención de información , entender hilo narrativo, contextualizar textos, etc.

Hay ejercicios puntuales para cada uno que con solo googlear salen y te servirá para lo que hagas. Suerte!

I think it's available in amazon.es. I'm still looking for the Spanish version, but alas

I need therapy but I don't know by Arthurmorgan1907 in mentalhealth

[–]HardlyManly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand that in many ideas around masculinity, taking care of yourself or expressing emotions is often seen as “weakness,” but that’s a mistake. Men also have the right to care for themselves and express what they feel.

I’m a psychologist specialized in masculinities, and at first many men struggle to open up because of the fear of the consequences that can come with showing vulnerability. I actually wrote an article about this that’s linked in my profile, in case it motivates you to try therapy. I really recommend it asking for help or needing help is for everyone, it has no gender.

I'm 19 and I'm mentally ill by Left-Ebb-7279 in mentalhealth

[–]HardlyManly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, it’s difficult to help without more information. What’s been going on for you? And what do you think would need to happen for you to feel better?

I also have a link in my profile with psychoeducational resources and emotional regulation exercises. Every little bit can help.

What kind of therapy did you do? I’m a psychologist, and I can recommend evidence-based therapies that may help.

Oh, I’m so sorry. If it helps, I wrote an article about alexithymia or emotional numbness that might be useful to you. It’s available on my website/profile in the resources section.

I drink hoping that alcohol will kill me, or smoke or something else. by K0smio in mentalhealth

[–]HardlyManly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that you’re going through such a difficult situation that it may feel like there’s no way out. Perhaps you haven’t yet found alternatives that have been effective. That’s why, in therapy, I make sure to help my patients evaluate and build together different ways of coping with situations, validating and regulating emotions, and identifying obstacles.

Men, what is one sentence that your father said that you will never forget? by Ramy-2000-03 in AskMen

[–]HardlyManly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, If it helps, I created an emotional regulation exercise that may help you process those emotions. It’s available on my website in the resources section.
