LifeStance therapists Wojciech Seweryn, Ricky Esposito Jr and Jasper Waite join us on this episode to tackle some of the most common myths about male providers in mental health. The conversation explores unconscious biases that often influence a preference for female therapists, along with stereotypes that male therapists may be less empathetic or warm. Wojciech, Ricky, and Jasper share how they build strong therapeutic relationships, the unique strengths they bring to their work, and how they address hesitations from clients who are unsure about seeing a male therapist. They also reflect on the importance of modeling healthy masculinity and emphasize that every therapist—regardless of gender—offers their own individual strengths.
