Find Meaning. Build Resilience. Own your Life.
Online Psychotherapy for men in Silicon Valley, San Francisco, and throughout California.
For men who want more out of life.
Being a man today isn’t easy.
You’re expected to have it all together –– career, relationships, mental toughness –– but under the surface, it can feel like something’s missing.
Maybe stress, anxiety or depression are holding you back.
Maybe you’re feeling stuck in your work or relationships.
Perhaps you’re going through a major life transition.
Or maybe you’re just going through the motions, unsure how to break free.
You push through because that’s what you do –– but deep down, you wonder, “Is this all there is?”
You’re not the only one feeling this way – and you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
Hi, I'm Matt Ahrens. If you’re ready to do the work, I’m here to help.
I guide professional men like you to:
Break through stress, anxiety and depression
Build stronger, more meaningful relationships
Gain clarity and confidence in work and life
Stop going through the motions and start living with purpose
My approach combines depth therapy and outcome-based therapy to help men gain insight, make meaningful changes, and build the life they want.
Depth Therapy – for men who want to understand themselves on a deeper level. This approach explores the root causes of struggles—patterns, beliefs, and past experiences—so you can break free from what’s holding you back.
Outcome-Based Therapy – for men who want real, tangible change. This approach focuses on practical strategies to help you take action, improve your relationships, advance your career, and feel more in control of your life.
Together, these approaches provide a balance of self-discovery and forward momentum, giving you both insight and results. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, career challenges, or a lack of direction, my goal is to help you move through it—not just talk about it.

How it Works
STEP 1: Book a free 20-minute consultation
Let's talk. I'll answer your questions and you'll get a sense of whether this is the right fit for you. No pressure –– just a conversation.
STEP 2: Weekly or bi-weekly sessions
In a focused, judgment-free space, we’ll tackle what’s holding you back. Whether it’s career struggles, relationships, anxiety, or a loss of direction, we’ll map out what works, identify roadblocks, and create real, lasting change.
STEP 3: Seeing results
You’ll start noticing shifts –– more confidence, greater clarity, and relief from what’s been weighing you down. You’ll feel more in control of your life and more like the man you want to be.
STEP 4: Continued support (if you need it)
Many men find value in ongoing support, even after their biggest challenges are behind them. We can shift to bi-weekly or monthly check-ins, occasional “tune-ups,” or sessions as needed –– whatever helps you stay on track.
STEP 5: Completion
Therapy isn’t forever –– it’s a process with a clear goal: helping you move forward. When the time comes, we’ll acknowledge the work you’ve done, reflect on the progress you’ve made, and make sure you’re ready to step forward with confidence.
