"Men are not prisoners of fate, but prisoners of their own mind." Franklin D. Roosevelt

Men have feelings too! While we have evolved since the days of the caveman and have grown to the fine gentlemen we are today, we still struggle in certain areas. Trying to understand what we feel, why we feel like we do and what to do about it has continued to cause issues. And that is why we focus on us - counselling for men.

Some feelings are important indicators that something’s not right. Feelings of guilt, shame, frustration or anger, amongst others, can all point to something not being aligned. When we feel like this, we make a choice - do we ignore the feelings or do we act on them. Sure, you can bury your feelings... but only temporarily. Our feelings don’t just vanish. When we ignore how we feel, we put stress on both our minds and bodies. The results can impact our mental and physical health - along with the health of those around us. Let's face it - we were taught to be leaders, providers and protectors but not shown how to deal with the feelings that accompany those traits. This has been problematic.

But once we identify that we have some areas to work on, we can make positive changes in our lives. We can change the way we talk to ourselves, our limiting behaviour and situations. We can improve our relationships, our careers, our health and our minds. For too long we have suffered in silence - it's time to be a man - and use the resources you have. We are here to help build a better you. Take control. Take Action. Feel Better.
