Counselling for men London Guide<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Mental health and therapy for men is becoming more popular in London. Counselling for men is a talking therapy<\/a> which caters for men and the unique challenges the face, including relationship difficulties, childhood sexual abuse, childhood trauma<\/a>, gender identity and drug and alcohol abuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The stereotype of a man having to appearing invincible and fearless is becoming outdated, with the growing awareness around men’s mental health. There are new definitions of what it means to be strong, based on emotional intelligence and the capacity to be vulnerable with others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s about becoming aware of another dimension – your inner world, which has a hidden, but huge influence on your thoughts, behaviours and success. For some, this can involve confronting childhood trauma or working with personality disorders that might be causing relationship issues<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be so ingrained that it’s not uncommon for a man to be completely unaware of how he feels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can make it difficult to form close friendships, where men can really be themselves, and express their vulnerabilities and doubts as well as their strengths and successes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
