For too many LGBTQ men, therapy has felt uncomfortable or unsafe. Maybe you’ve worked with providers who didn’t understand your experience. Maybe you’ve avoided opening up because you didn’t want to deal with judgment, assumptions, or clichés.
At Mister Health, we believe every man deserves therapy that affirms who he is and gives him the tools to thrive. We provide virtual LGBTQ counseling for men across Massachusetts—a private, supportive space where you can be fully yourself while working through the challenges you face.
You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain yourself
LGBTQ Counseling for Men in Massachusetts
It’s not about being “broken.” It’s about facing challenges in a world that often makes things harder for LGBTQ men.
Why LGBTQ men seek counseling
LGBTQ men experience many of the same struggles as straight men—stress, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles—but often with added layers of complexity:
Coming Out & Identity Questions: Wondering how to live authentically without fear of rejection.
Family or Cultural Stress: Navigating family dynamics, faith, or cultural expectations.
Dating & Relationships: Handling intimacy, communication, or trust in same-sex or mixed-orientation relationships.
Mental Health Concerns: Anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance use issues layered with identity struggles.
Minority Stress: The constant pressure of stigma, discrimination, or feeling like you have to prove yourself.
Isolation: Struggling to find meaningful connections or support systems.

Strengthen Relationships

How LGBTQ counseling helps
Break patterns of isolation and develop real connections.
This isn’t about finger-pointing—it’s about finding your footing in the relationship so both of you can thrive.

Manage Stress & Anxiety
