Men, Therapy & Breaking the Silence: Tackling the Stigma Around Men’s Mental Health

Why do so many men avoid therapy—and how can we change that? In this episode of The Nearly Normal Podcast, we dive deep into the stigma surrounding men’s mental health, emotional vulnerability, and help-seeking behavior. From societal pressure to "man up" to the silent battles men fight daily, we explore why mental health care for men often goes unspoken—and what we can do to support the men in our lives.

Join us as we unpack practical tips for improving communication with male partners, friends, and family members, and share insight on how to encourage men to seek mental health support without shame.

Whether you’re a man struggling in silence or someone who loves one—this conversation is for you.
