Denver Men’s Therapy

Takeaway: Therapy can be a healthy, constructive space for men of all walks of life to feel supported in their journey. If you’re dealing with the joys and stressors of fatherhood, struggling to find meaning or purpose, or interested in exploring what masculinity means to you, I welcome you to join me for men’s counseling in Denver, Colorado.

Our approach to Denver men's therapy

Madrega Wellness specializes in contemplative psychotherapy, as well as ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and psychedelic integration when appropriate. Read more about each of our offerings below, and visit our services overview page for more detailed information.

Contemplative psychotherapy

While this specific approach to psychotherapy was developed at Naropa University (where our founder studied), it's based on centuries-old wisdom from the Buddhist tradition. Contemplative psychotherapy blends traditional talk therapy approaches with powerful practices like mindfulness and meditation. These methods complement each other to help us find deep awareness and emotional well-being.

Psychedelic integration

More and more research into the healing properties of psychedelics (like this study on MDMA and PTSD and this study on psilocybin and depression) has emerged in recent years. If you've used these plant medicines outside of therapy and are interested in processing your experience, we’re happy to hold space for you.

Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy

We offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) for people seeking an additional healing tool. While ketamine infusions are effective in helping people find almost instant relief from severe depression and other significant mental health issues, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in Denver may be appropriate for those looking to enhance their existing work in psychotherapy.

Common topics addressed in men's counseling

  • Fatherhood

    We intimately understand the challenges and joys that come with parenthood. Our therapy room is a space where you can get support and explore what fatherhood means to you.

  • Grief and loss

    Our founder has extensive experience working with individuals experiencing grief and loss, including those in hospice care and people with dementia, in addition to their family members. Together, we'll make space for your emotions and process your experiences.

  • Mental health challenges

    Men's mental health is a serious issue, due in large part to the stigma around seeking support. According to the Anxiety & Depression Association of America, as many as 1 in 10 men experience depression but only half will seek treatment. We specialize in treating men who are living in states of anxiety and/or depression.

  • Other men's issues

    Each man is their own unique individual, and any challenge a man experiences can be considered a men's issue. If you don't see your specific struggle listed here but are still interested in working with a men's therapist, we encourage you to reach out.

FAQs about counseling for men in Denver

  • Choosing a therapist is a highly personal experience. What works for one person may not work for someone else, so it's important to deeply consider your own needs, values, and goals for therapy when looking for Denver therapists.

    Working with a male clinician can help many men feel more comfortable opening up about certain issues. However, some men prefer to work with a female for their own reasons. It's most important to find a therapist you connect with as the therapeutic relationship will be a major factor in your healing.

  • Again, each man is unique and there's no one-size-fits-all approach to counseling for men's issues. All of our therapists are trained in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, and we firmly believe that these methods can be transformative for a wide range of people.

    Each therapist on the team has additional training in other methods, such as EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), and somatic therapy. During your consultation, a membe of our team will help connect you with a therapist that can fit your needs.

  • Yes, therapy is worth it for men. We’ve seen it firsthand with the men we’ve supported. Whether you're struggling with anxiety and depression, the stressors of fatherhood, or simply want to find more meaning in your life, therapy can help.

    While today's world is more accepting of men's mental health than ever, there are still significant barriers in place. We recognize the courage it takes to be vulnerable and ask for support, and we commend you for taking this step.
