As men, we deserve to live the most authentic version our ourselves while wholly thriving individually and in our partnerships/ relationships. We bring the entirety of ourselves everyday into the world not in separate parts as we have been encouraged and conditioned to believe. These parts also include past traumas, conditioning, modeling, grief, anxiety, and maladaptive coping mechanisms which can show up in our personal, professional and romantic spaces. If not addressed, it can inhibit the ability in actualizing the most authentic self.

Men are less likely to seek help in healthcare especially as it relates to their mental health, address associated symptoms which results to under diagnosis leading to more reactionary behavior (i.e heightened irritability, stress) and worst case suicidality. A large component of this is exacerbated by society and gender roles which can endorse a traditional masculinity framework (emphasizing self-reliance, stoicism, reluctance to admit to weakness) and inhibiting their ability to seek assistance or building a cadre of healthy coping mechanisms to deal with life and it’s stressors.

This can lead to feeling arrested by cycles, patterns or reactions to our past which can continue to resurface and wonder, “Why can’t I have that relationship I want?" or “Why do I not feel like my truest self?” If this sounds familiar and you would like to begin to work on shifting these narratives/ schemas towards a more whole and authentic version of yourself - In.Sight is here to partner with you. Through our therapeutic process, it will elicit and bring to the forefront the truer more authentic version of yourself.
