About Us
mens|counselling|help is a local specialised directory designed to make male therapists more visible in the Bath area, offering a clear starting point for clients across Wiltshire, B&NES and Somerset.
Male practitioners are still under-represented, and this can leave some men unsure where to turn or who they might feel comfortable speaking with.
By bringing a small number of local
male therapists together, we aim to reduce that barrier and make the first step into therapy feel more possible.
For many men, seeing male therapists represented can make counselling feel more approachable and relevant.
To support this purpose, listings on mens|counselling|help are limited to male therapists. This focus allows clients to reliably find male practitioners, while fully recognising the essential contribution of therapists of all genders. The directory simply addresses a specific gap in provision.
Just as many women prefer to work with a female counsellor, we believe people should have choice — and access to services that reflect their needs and preferences.
How we work..
Counselling isn’t about being analysed or judged. It’s a straightforward, private space where you can talk openly without having to put on a front. You set the pace and decide what matters.
We understand that every man is on his own path - sometimes sharing part of that journey with someone who can listen, clarify, and steady the ground beneath us can make a world of difference.
Our job is to help you make sense of things, and support you in finding a way forward that actually fits your life. There’s no pressure to be emotional, no need to “perform,” and no expectation that you arrive with everything figured out.
Most men find that having a steady place to talk things through - without being interrupted, advised, or criticised - makes a real difference surprisingly quickly.
