What will happen when you call?
We'll arrange a time for you to meet for free with our Treatment Coordinator who will also have a clinician call you. Your first appointment with the clinician is free. He or she will find out about you by asking why you decided to come and how we can help you find other ways to solve your problems. Together you'll decide if it's a good fit and if you want to schedule another appointment.
Worried about cost?
Men's Initiative's fees are based on your income, starting at just $10/hour. We want to help you and don't want cost to get in the way!
Many people, particularly men, choose not to seek help for depression, anxiety, or other mental distress. Younger men are particularly reluctant to seek help unless severely distressed. Men's Initiative supports Philadelphia area men who are ready to seek help and want a place to go that is affordable, confidential, and understands their unique perspective.
Do you need help?
If you can answer yes to any of these questions, the counselors at Men's Initiative can help you:
- I feel overwhelmed.
- I have thoughts or behaviors that I do over and over again.
- I have unusually high energy.
- I feel sad, blue or depressed.
- I wish I were dead.
- I worry a lot.
- I have fears of things or places.
- I'm drinking too much or using drugs.
- I feel numb and disconnected from myself and others.
- I have difficulty sleeping or I sleep too much.
Men's Initiative is not a detox or substance abuse treatment facility or a residential or crisis-management center. Please see our Resources page for more information or go to your nearest hospital emergency room for crisis services.
