Group Therapy
Downtown Men’s Process Group
In a direct and supportive environment, this New York City-based men’s process group addresses the complexities of modern masculinity, with a focus on practical issues. Members discuss challenges related to being single and maintaining relationships, alongside navigating work-life balance and societal roles. It provides a safe space for men to discuss various aspects of their lives, including personal identity, relationships, substance use, and emotional vulnerability. The group will open up a conversation on challenges that men often face financial stress, particularly pertinent in the high-cost urban setting of New York. It serves as a platform for men to discuss masculinity, questioning norms in favor of a more personal and contemporary understanding of what it means to be a man today.
When: Once a week Mondays 6pm
Where: 412 Sixth Avenue, Suite 401
