Salvador Resendez

My approach to therapy is to help couples and men foster a safe, caring therapeutic relationship to help them thrive. I bring compassion and empathy from my own recovery to support healing and growth. My style is active and I will collaborate with you to tap into your identity, strengths, values, and interests in our work together to help you achieve your goals.

The Center for Men’s Excellence

Our therapists work with men, couples and kids who seek to improve their quality of life with effective, evidence-based therapy modalities. Our clients take part in scientifically-supported psychotherapy treatments to effectively manage a variety of issues including anxiety, stress, depression and other life challenges. By learning to apply well-researched psychological techniques, clients are better able to improve their quality of life and experience lasting relief from their concerns.

If you’re struggling with OCD, anxiety, or trauma, effective treatment is available. I provide telehealth therapy to adults anywhere in California and specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a highly effective treatment for OCD, social anxiety, illness anxiety, generalized anxiety, and specific phobias.

For PTSD, I use Prolonged Exposure therapy to help process traumatic memories and gradually face fears. Because depression and loss of motivation often occur alongside these conditions, I also use Behavioral Activation when helpful to address depressive symptoms and reduce patterns that interfere with recovery.

Leann Ravenel

I have been a mental health provider for nearly 20 years. I absolutely love what I do! I was trained psychoanalytically but also use a humanistic, client-centered and eclectic approach to therapy. I am a warm, caring and engaging therapist. I enjoy working with male clients and have had tremendous success in treating men with depression, anxiety and relationship issues.

Thank you.

Erik Anderson

In my practice as a therapist I use the research on what works to help my clients get the outcomes they want: better relationships, managed anxiety, less depression and more control over life. I do not limit our work into any single modality but blend a variety of techniques to tailor my approach for each individual. I draw influence from cognitive behavioral, humanistic and dynamic psychotherapy. Therapy is a place to develop and apply philosophy to get to a different place than we are able to get on our own. I’m excited to join you!

Hate psychobabble? Good, me too. I want to make therapy more accessible to those that think “therapy isn’t for them”

I help men build resiliency and develop purpose through honest conversations. Sometimes this means teaching tools and techniques, sometimes this means exploring painful memories, but almost always we are having authentic conversations  that respect your experiences and provide ways for you to grow.

Video game counseling is a novel approach that uses video games in counseling sessions to help closed-off clients express themselves. Video game counseling is a more immersive, artistic, and creative medium for clients to build skills and process their difficulties. I also help gamers stuck in their life to gain control over their video game habits and fulfill their other life ambitions.

Being a man never came with a manual. No sense of direction led to feeling lost, confused, stressed, not understood, and even angry. You just want to feel heard by someone who gets it, while taking impactful steps to create the life you’ve wanted for so long.

I coach and mentor you to create the masculinity you seek. I make therapy a space to workshop new perspectives, and forge newfound resiliency. I lead a path to find strength in compassion, kindness, and composure.

I know how hard it is, as a man, to admit you need help. Even more so to ask for it. I won’t judge or criticize. You can thrive with a men’s issues therapist who wants nothing more than to help you be all that you can, and more.
