The best therapy for men

When most people hear the word therapy, they think of sitting in a quiet office, across from a counsellor, talking through problems one by one. And while traditional therapy has its place and can be helpful, I’ve found something that, for men, can be even more transformative: being part of a men’s group.

I’ll never forget the first time I joined a men’s group in person. I walked into the room nervous, unsure of what to expect, and almost turned around and went home. But I stayed. What I found was a group of strong, grounded men who weren’t afraid to open up. Men who discussed their struggles honestly, set goals together, held each other accountable, and pushed each other to level up.

And the effect it had on me was huge. Suddenly, I wasn’t carrying everything alone. I didn’t have to battle through my challenges in silence. I had men around me who understood, who had my back, and who challenged me to step into my potential. That sense of brotherhood gave me a surge of energy and confidence that I could never have built by myself.

Why Men’s Groups Work

The truth is, no man needs to go through life feeling isolated. Growth is possible for anyone - no matter where you’re starting from.

Here’s why men’s groups work so well:

• Shared Struggles - When you realise other men have been through the same problems, shame and isolation disappear.

• Accountability - You’re far more likely to follow through on your goals when other men are watching and expecting results.

• Support and Encouragement - When life knocks you down, you’ve got a team ready to lift you back up.

• Challenge and Growth - Iron sharpens iron. Being around strong, motivated men pushes you to level up in all areas.

No situation is hopeless. I’ve seen men turn around their careers, rebuild marriages, improve their health, and rediscover their confidence - all because they had the consistency, structure, and accountability that comes from brotherhood.

The Best Therapy for Men

So what’s the best therapy for men? In my experience, it’s not sitting alone with your thoughts. It’s not pretending you’ve got it all together. The best therapy is joining a group of men who are committed to growth, honesty, and support.

Because when you surround yourself with men who refuse to let you quit, who remind you of your strength when you forget it, and who won’t let you settle for less than your potential...everything changes.

That’s why I created Engineered Thinking. It’s a space where men can be real, get support, set goals, and stay accountable. It’s not about quick fixes or empty motivation. It’s about consistent growth, week by week, shoulder to shoulder with other men who are walking the same path.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, isolated, or unsure of your next step, don’t keep it all to yourself. Step into brotherhood. You’ll be amazed at how quickly things start to shift when you no longer have to face it all alone.
