Ever wondered why therapy sometimes misses the mark with men? This episode of The Mental Health Toolbox Podcast offers a fresh perspective. Host Patrick Martin welcomes Marc Azoulay, the founder of Men's Therapy Online, to tackle this question head-on. Together, they dissect the unique challenges men face in therapy and share strategies to make therapeutic spaces more effective for them. Drawing from psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and Buddhism, Marc offers a toolkit for breaking down barriers and reshaping therapy for men.
Marc's journey is as fascinating as it is inspiring. Once struggling with addiction himself, he shares how redefining masculinity played a pivotal role in his recovery. He talks candidly about the dominance hierarchy that can hinder men from seeking help, and how traditional therapy often overlooks this dynamic. With anecdotes and humour, Marc and Patrick discuss the importance of respect in therapy, the role of community, and how physical activities can forge stronger bonds among men.
The conversation also delves into the generational shifts in masculinity and how these affect men's mental health today. Marc's insights are not just for therapists but for anyone interested in understanding modern masculinity and fostering genuine connections. Whether you're a therapist looking to better support your male clients or someone interested in men's mental health, this episode is a must-listen.
So, if you're curious about how to create more inclusive and effective therapeutic environments for men, this episode is packed with wisdom and practical advice. Why not give it a listen?
