THE RELATIONSHIP CENTER of St. Louis™ |
|
Men face a unique set of issues in our society, which prizes financial prowess, power, and control. With the exception of anger, men’s emotions are often ignored, which is why so many men have issues with anger in their daily lives.
Therapists at The Relationship Center of St. Louis have an eclectic approach to working specifically with men that combines compassionate listening with pragmatic problem-solving methods. Men are encouraged to let go of ineffective coping strategies and “upgrade” their mental and emotional “software” to become more enlightened and authentically happy.
Most people come to see us because they’re feeling depressed or stressed out. These feelings can be caused by anything from a sudden loss to a long-term unhappy situation. Not only will we give you a safe place to tell your story without fear of judgment, but we’ll help you learn techniques for fighting back against stress and depression instead of letting them eat away at you.
Like the adage says, the answer lies within. Instead of trying to “fix your problems,” we find that active listening and mindful conversation blended with the wisdom we’ve gained over the years in the psychological community helps our clients uncover the true answers to life’s problems within themselves. As you discover and realize your own inner wisdom, listening to it becomes easier and easier.
We’re going to help you feel more in control of yourself, your moods, your behavior and reactions, your communication, your words and your intentions, and the things around you that you have the power to change. At the same time we’ll help you to recognize those things in life that you have neither the power nor the obligation to control.
