Men's Challenges Are Unique & Need Focsued Therapy
Men face unique challenges in the realm of mental health due to norms and expectations of masculinity. They contend with pressures to suppress emotions, appear strong, and prioritize problem-solving over vulnerability. Men seek help at lower rates than women, and often their experiences of suffering going unnoticed or misunderstood. Masculinity can inform the expression of issues like depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and challenges with emotional and physical intimacy. Effective therapy involves creating a nonjudgmental space, normalizing emotional expression, challenging harmful stereotypes, and incorporating practical, action-oriented approaches to help men feel seen, understood, and make meaningful change in their lives.
Men's Therapy With Me
Therapy with a specialist increases the likelihood of working with a clinician who deeply understands how mental health challenges manifest uniquely in men. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including CBT and psychodynamic therapy, with a keen awareness of the societal pressures men face in expressing emotions and building relationships. My expertise in men’s mental health allows me to provide targeted support that fosters growth, resilience, and meaningful change.
About Dr. Yedidya (Didi) Levy
I specialize in providing in-person & online psychotherapy for adult men in New York
For nearly a decade, I've worked on developing expertise and honing my craft as a clinician specialized in men's issues. Men tend to have a unique experience of the world and a complex relationship with mental health. As a licensed psychologist trained in various modalities of psychotherapy, I've repeatedly witnessed the transformative power of insight, and the therapeutic relationship, even when it feels all hope is lost.
My experience is broad and deep. I am the assistant director of the college counseling center, on the men's campus at Yeshiva University, and have worked extensively with adult men of all ages, and from all walks of life. I believe psychotherapy is a bespoke process, one in which the care and roadmap to change is highly individualized.
Through this exploration, we'll identify the patterns contributing to your current distress. We will develop insight into the ways these patterns are maintained, and we will effectively intervene to create lasting change.
