Men’s Issues
Men's Counseling in Troy, Ohio
Helping men across Miami County reconnect with strength, clarity, and purpose.
Many men hesitate to seek therapy — and it's understandable.
In a culture where expectations for men are constantly shifting — from stoic providers to emotionally open caretakers — it can be difficult to know where you stand, how to act, or how to be.
At Compass Counseling, I offer a space where you don’t have to perform or prove anything. You don’t have to “have it together.” You just have to show up, as you are.
Men face a distinct set of challenges: pressure to succeed, pressure to be strong, pressure to be vulnerable — often without clear tools or support. Therapy gives you space to slow down, explore the parts of yourself that are struggling, and start building a life that feels aligned with who you truly are.
Common Issues Men Bring to Therapy:
Anger, rage, irritability, and emotional shutdown
Fatherhood stress, new parenthood, and parenting challenges
Recovering from infidelity or relationship betrayals
Struggles with intimacy, emotional connection, and vulnerability
Substance use, compulsive behaviors, and non-12-step recovery support
Feelings of shame, guilt, or failure
Depression, isolation, and loss of purpose
Victim of relationship abuse, or concerns about unhealthy behavior patterns
Paternal postpartum depression (yes, it’s real — and it matters)
You’re not broken. You’re a man navigating real pressures, real pain, and real expectations — often without a roadmap.
Therapy gives you a chance to reclaim your direction, your relationships, and your sense of self.
A Direct Approach to Men's Counseling
At Compass Counseling, you’ll have a space where you can be honest, even if you’re angry, lost, numb, or unsure.
I’ll meet you there — without judgment, without pushing an agenda.
You already have the strength, resilience, and wisdom inside you. Therapy is about helping you reconnect with it.
You don’t have to fit someone else’s version of masculinity.
You just have to build a life that feels honest, grounded, and true to you.
