Men’s Issues Therapy & Counseling for Men in Arvada
Practical, confidential mental health support for men who are ready to get their life back on track.
✓ PROUDLY ACCEPTING TRICARE WEST
Overcoming Isolation & The Myth of the ‘Lone Wolf’
Society—and perhaps your upbringing—taught you a specific code: Provide. Protect. Don’t complain. Figure it out yourself. But at 70 West Counseling, we recognize that you’ve carried the weight long enough. While that stoic mindset serves you well in a crisis, it doesn’t work for the rest of your life. Our specialized men’s counseling in Arvada is here to help you improve your life before the pressure becomes too much. When you suppress stress, frustration, and sadness, they don’t disappear. They come out sideways—as anger, withdrawal, burnout, or physical health issues.
You might be dealing with:
- The “Short Fuse”: Snapping at your wife or kids and regretting it later.
- Numbness: Feeling like you are just going through the motions at work and home.
- Isolation: You have “buddies” to watch the game with, but no one you can actually talk to about real life.
- The Pressure Cooker: Feeling like if you stop for one second, everything will fall apart.
Asking for support isn’t a sign of weakness. It is a tactical decision to ensure you can stay in the fight for the long haul.
OUR APPROACH
Action-Oriented Therapy for Men
A Strategy Room for Your Life.
We know you don’t want to just sit on a couch and ask “How does that make you feel?” for an hour. You want solutions.
At 70 West Counseling, our approach to Men’s Issues is Action-Oriented.
- Identify the Target:
What isn’t working? (Sleep, marriage, anger). - Unpack the Rucksack:
We look at what you are carrying—past trauma, work stress, family expectations. - New Tools:
We equip you with practical skills for emotional regulation, communication, and stress management. - The Objective:
To help you become the man, father, and partner you actually want to be.
Treating Anger, Career Burnout & Relationship Stress
Anger Management
Anger is often a “secondary emotion”—a shield that protects you from feeling hurt, disrespected, or overwhelmed. We help you deconstruct the anger, identify the real trigger, and regain control of your reactions so you don’t burn bridges.
Relationship & Intimacy Struggles
Men often try to “fix” problems when their partners just want to be “heard.” We teach you the mechanics of emotional intimacy and communication, helping you stop the “roommate phase” and reconnect with your partner.
Career Pressure & Burnout
Your worth is not just your paycheck. We help you navigate high-pressure careers, impostor syndrome, and the anxiety of being the provider.
Modern Fatherhood
The playbook for fatherhood has changed. We help you navigate the balance of being strong and emotionally available for your children, breaking generational cycles of distance.
For Those Who Serve
We understand the unique culture of “Embracing the Suck.” If you are a Military (Active/Vet) or a First Responder, you have been trained to shut down emotions to survive the mission. But you can’t turn that switch off when you get home. We provide TRICARE-approved, confidential support to help you transition from “Battle Mindset” to “Home Mindset” without losing your edge.
FAQ
Is therapy just crying and talking about my childhood?
No. While we may explore your past to understand your present, our sessions are focused on now. We focus on solving current problems and building future resilience. You set the pace.
Will this affect my job?
We take confidentiality seriously. We are a private practice, separate from your employer or chain of command. Unless there is an immediate safety risk, what is said here stays here.
Do you have male therapists?
Yes. We understand that sometimes you just need to talk to another guy. Ask our intake coordinator about availability with our male clinicians.
