You asked for it, and we’ve delivered. After 75% of men from a recent survey said that they would make use of a mental health consultant, we’ve added this service to HeadsUpGuys.
The process is simple and will help you get back on track with an action plan for fighting depression.
Get advice from a pro who specializes in men’s mental health. We’re here to talk.
1. Reviewing the issues that are troubling you.
2. Identifying your goals and objectives.
3. Sorting through available resources and helping you decide where to begin.
4. Developing an action plan.
Submit a request to connect with Dr. John Ogrodniczuk and set up an appointment. Dr. Ogrodniczuk is the founder and man behind HeadsUpGuys. As a Professor of Psychiatry, he has over 20 years of experience talking to and consulting with men about mental health issues.
Consults are intended to be a one or two-time service to help you sort out what’s going on in your life, and get a sense of where to start, so you can better focus your energy towards fighting depression.
