The Emotionally Available MAN

Would you like to Break Free from Patriarchal Conditioning and Build Deeper Relationships?

Would you like to be able to communicate, listen, understand, be more intimate, heal from your past, let go of anger and isolation and possibly have more Sex?

Modern men need to be ready for more. Being their father’s father is not path to being relational and intimate. Today’s women need More connection. More understanding., More emotional depth and more intimacy and not just wham bam thank you sex. Their partners and their children have been waiting for thousands of years to change generational male dysfunction that has been being modeled and not working leaving a trail of lost relationships and children modeling the same behavior.

“Now is the time to break the cycle of generational male dysfunction for yourself and future generations and leave a legacy that can change the world one man at a time!”

This transformational workshop is designed to help men break free from the emotional limitations of patriarchal upbringing and develop the emotional intelligence and relationship skills needed to thrive as partners and fathers.

In our culture men are expected to be strong, push down feelings and suck it up. For generations our father’s father’s have been tasked with turning boys into men at all cost. “Big boys don’t cry” and “Don’t be a baby” are common terms that I heard as a child and what I hear in my family sessions with parents struggling with an oppositional defiant male child that is angry and violent towards them and their siblings. This male generational dysfunction negatively impacts relationships with their partners and impacts their son’s identities where they are supposed to suppress their feelings because showing emotions is a sign of weakness.

As male human beings when we are not allowed to feel our emotions and show them they will manifest in unhealthy ways and what makes this even more challenging for a child is that has not yet developed their emotional language so they have no idea what their feelings are and as they develop our culture and our fathers ask them to push them deep down and “not to be a girl”. But that is exactly what they need! This chronic suppression of feelings eventually manifests into covert and overt male depression that is passed from one generation to the next. Each son will carry their fathers depression until the cycle is broken by healing that wounded child that was never allowed to feel and be vulnerable. In the path of this male depression lies a wake of dysfunctional co-parenting, marriages, partnerships and children that were not given a choice to have a dad that wasn’t depressed or in turn a dad that was able to be vulnerable because in relationships without vulnerability there can be no intimacy or healthy relationship!

Terry Real , RLT Therapist “Our society has made depression “illegal” for men, the cultural programming of boys, and forced detachment in the name of autonomy. Our culture of individualism, Real says, has done as much damage as our culture of patriarchy—leaving men little room for the type of connection and relationality that we humans live for.
