This page lists Male Depression Psychotherapists in New York. 4 in all.
That is 4 of the 16 psychotherapists listed in New York.
These are practitioners who identify as male on their profile 1. We ask every therapist that question, and they may decline to answer. We do not check the answer, and nothing here is ranked.
This list answers an explicit request for a man. While many people prefer this, we found no research on whether it changes how the therapy goes.
Identifying as a man is a different thing from working with men's concerns. A client and a practitioner always differ, whatever they share 2.
How depression is treated
Effective psychological treatments include behavioural activation and cognitive behavioural therapy 3. Interpersonal psychotherapy and problem-solving therapy are also used.
Effective treatment exists for mild, moderate and severe depression. A depressive episode means low mood, or loss of interest in things you enjoyed. It lasts most of the day, nearly every day, for at least two weeks.
Low mood after a loss or a hard year is not automatically a disorder, though support can help. Ask a practitioner what they would suggest, and why.
What psychotherapy works on, and how long it usually runs
Everyone on this page describes their work as psychotherapy. A psychotherapist works through talking with you about your thoughts, feelings and behaviours 4.
Psychotherapy usually runs longer than counselling and aims for clinical change. It works on patterns that repeat rather than on one current problem.
A psychotherapist trains in psychological treatment rather than in medicine. What that training covers, and which approach a practitioner uses, differ between practitioners. Ask which approach a psychotherapist trained in, and how long they usually work.
What this page filters on
These are the only filters: the practitioner's stated Male identity, the specialism recorded as Depression and the professional title psychotherapist.
