Men's Assertiveness Group Therapy in Charlotte, NC

Do you need help learning how to say “no” and asking for what you want in life? If so, Men’s Assertiveness Therapy may be just what you need. We work with clients who are seeking assertiveness skills on an individual or group basis.

Many men suffer from “nice guy” syndrome, which can negatively affect their relationships, work, and self-image. Although there is nothing inherently wrong with being a nice person, issues arise when it is accompanied by repressed feelings, conflict avoidance, and more.

Men’s Assertiveness Therapy Services

As a client of Charlotte Counseling Associates, you may choose from either individual therapy or group therapy. You may also attend both if you wish. 

Men’s Assertiveness Groups occur 2-3 times a year and take place on a weekly basis with a total of 12 group meetings. There are typically six to seven men in the group, and we use the popular book, “No More Mr. Nice Guy,” to apply assertiveness skills and role-playing activities to practice. A group setting is a wonderful way to feel connected to others who struggle with similar issues. 

Individual Assertiveness Counseling sessions typically occur over six to eight sessions, depending on your needs. An individual counseling environment provides a private atmosphere where you can share your experiences and receive direct support. 

Can’t decide between individual and group counseling? Contact us and we will help you determine which is best for your needs!

Men’s General Counseling Services

If you are looking for a general men’s group to speak about varied topics outside of the focus of assertiveness counseling, you may benefit from our General Men’s Group. This is a safe place to express yourself, connect with other men, and receive encouraging feedback and support. For more information on our General Men’s Group, click here.
