For too long, many men have been taught to “man up”, hide how they feel, or simply carry on. But mental health affects everyone – and opening up isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s a step toward strength.
At Lewisham Talking Therapies, we understand that men face unique pressures – from work stress, relationship struggles, family responsibilities, or just the weight of expectations. Whether it’s low mood, anxiety, anger, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, talking can help you take back control.
Why Talking Matters
Men are statistically less likely to seek help for their mental health, yet more likely to struggle in silence. Talking Therapies provide a safe, confidential space to explore how you’re feeling – free of judgement, pressure, or labels.
You don’t have to have a diagnosis or be in crisis to benefit. Whether you’re:
- Feeling overwhelmed or stressed
- Struggling with anger or irritability
- Experiencing low mood or anxiety
- Dealing with loss, trauma, or change
- Or just not feeling like yourself
We’re here to listen and help you find tools to cope and thrive.
