Why Men Avoid Therapy & Emotional Healing in Relationships

Many men don’t seek therapy or emotional support until their relationship is breaking down, their stress becomes unbearable, or they reach a personal crisis point. In this episode of Becoming Untriggered Podcast, Lavinia and Andrew explore why men avoid therapy, suppress emotions, and struggle to ask for help, the role women often take in relationships when they become emotionally aware first, and how this impacts relationships, marriage, parenting, mental health, and emotional connection.01:10 – Why Men Wait Until Crisis to Ask for Help06:00 – Childhood Trauma & Emotional Repression in Men09:30 – Men Look for External Solutions Instead of Healing11:50 – Traditional Therapy Doesn’t Work for Many Men14:47 – How Men & Women Process Emotions Differently19:00 – Conflict in Relationships Can Trigger Healing22:00 – How to Raise Emotionally Healthy Boys24:00 – Men Need Better Emotional Tools👉 For more support, connect with us on Instagram @becoming_untriggered_podcast– Resources: Lavinia’s Making Peace with Your Past signature holistic healing programme: https://www.laviniabrown.com/making-peace-with-your-pastAndrew’s 1-1 RESET Coaching Programme: https://www.andrewlynn.net/coachingBook a Deep Dive Relationship Recovery Session: https://calendly.com/d/ck3y-gzt-kbc/3hr-deep-dive-relationship-recovery-session– 📱 Connect with Lavinia: https://www.laviniabrown.com https://www.instagram.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert https://www.facebook.com/the.innerchild.healing.expert https://www.youtube.com/@the.innerchild.healing.expert📱 Connect with Andrew: https://www.andrewlynn.nethttps://www.tiktok.com/@modern_day_healer
