My therapeutic approach draws upon body-basded therapies and wisdom traditions as well as depth psychology. Together we will explore your life through five distinct elements: mind, body, spirit, community, and environment, with attention to both your suffering and your goals.

Dr. Troy Piwowarski
Dr. Troy Piwowarski
I provide individual and group therapy for men in their 20s-50s who have done therapy before and are looking to go deeper. As an individual therapist, I like to be actively involved and give feedback about what I’m noticing in the here-and-now. This gives us a portal into understanding how you get tripped up and where you can lean into a fuller, deeper way of living. My men’s groups are long-term process groups that primarily focus on relationships between members. Group is all about practicing direct, authentic contact and exploring your blocks to getting closer with others.
Dr. Paul Fisher
Dr. Paul Fisher
I’m an experienced therapist, LMFT#23779, of more than thirty years. I have my own practice in San Diego, CA, and also counsel online, and teach graduate behavioral science courses virtually. I work primarily with adults, individually or as couples. I’ve led numerous support groups for men, as well as working individually with alcohol and porn addiction. I’ve also assisted men with life transitions, loss, divorce, parenting, co-parenting, self-care, anger management, and domestic violence. I assist in helping men understand themselves and to be responsible and accountable for their choices and behaviors. Men also need an awareness of what a woman needs in a healthy relationship, and I work in this area as well.

Like water carving rocks, we are shaped by our surroundings and where we come from. I grew up in rural Alaska surrounded by a vast expanse of towering mountains and large glacial rivers. I worked for many years as a wilderness guide, experiential educator and wilderness therapist. Dramatic seasonal changes in light, temperature, and landscape taught me that stillness exists within the extremes. I work from a perspective that combines modern neuroscience, interpersonal neurobiology, internal family systems, eco therapy and eastern mysticism. Among other things I am a father, carpenter, adventurer and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapist (KAP). Please feel free to reach out for a free 15 min consultation through my website.

I HELP MILLENNIAL AND GEN X PROFESSIONALS CONSCIOUSLY GET WHAT THEY WANT (IN LIFE AND RELATIONSHIPS). Life is overwhelming. Between work, relationships, and technology calling for your attention at every moment, it’s extremely difficult to remain calm and grounded. We can lose our sense of purpose and passion.
Unlike other therapists who merely sit and listen, I take an active and engaged approach. You may find yourself in a guided meditation or a role-play exercise. There may be optional homework assignments. We’ll tune into exactly what you need. I’m here to support you to find your unique, confident voice.

Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, lack of self-worth, or self-doubt, I help people uncover the root causes of their issues and find a way out.
As a therapist, I actively participate in therapy conversations, providing feedback, teaching you skills, and helping you work through problems or unhealthy patterns. I balance being supportive with also challenging my clients in ways that help them grow.
Connor Moss

I offer client centered, humanistic, and solutions oriented therapy for individuals and couples in Oakland, CA and online anywhere in California. I love helping people move through difficult patterns and emotions in their lives to emerge on the other side stronger and more engaged in their lives.
Matthew Grundy
Matthew Grundy
My approach is one that allows all of you to show up in the therapy room. Anxiety, depression, overthinking, difficulty connecting in relationships, shame… all these things can impact our ability to live our life to the fullest. So much of the cultural messaging around masculinity centers around avoiding vulnerability, and avoiding difficult emotions. By being present to what is actually here, we are much better equipped to choose how we want to show up in our lives. Talking with someone, especially as a man, can feel difficult, and I strive to provide an environment that feels comfortable, safe, and real. Reach out for a free consultation.

Dr. Noah Lau Branson
My name is Dr. Noah Lau Branson and I am a biracial licensed clinical psychologist providing therapy and counseling services in Pasadena, California. I specialize in working with people and couples with mixed backgrounds (bi and multi-cultural/ethnic/racial) and other types of complex identity formation (religion/spirituality, LGBTQ+, SES). In addition, I have specialties in developmental and relational trauma, helping professionals (therapists, teachers, medical practitioners, pastors), and men’s issues. As a therapist, I believe reducing your symptoms is just the first step.
I want to help you discover the roots of your pain, make meaning of your story, create healthy relationships with yourself and others, and take steps to live well.

You feel overwhelmed, stressed, unfulfilled. Maybe your relationship feels like it’s crashing and burning. You have lost motivation, direction, and a sense of purpose. You are not sure when it started, but you do not feel the same. You got here because you know something is off. But you do not want to stay this way. You want more out of friendships, coupledom, parenthood, work and life. You want to feel refreshed, energized, healthy and ready to tackle the days. You want to be back on track – like you again, but an expanded version. You want to be full of life. You want the fire back. You came to the right place. I help guys just like you get the fire back and get back to life!
