Eric Hammer, RP – Psychotherapy for Men Struggling in Relationships
 
Relationships can be challenging, and for many men, navigating emotional difficulties, communication struggles, and recurring patterns can feel frustrating and confusing. If you find yourself stuck—whether in a romantic relationship, friendships, or even your relationship with yourself—you’re not alone. Many men struggle with expressing emotions, setting boundaries, or understanding why certain patterns keep repeating.
 As a Registered Psychotherapist based in the Old South area of London, Ontario, I specialize in helping men who are experiencing relationship challenges. Using a psychodynamic approach, I help clients explore the unconscious influences that shape their emotions, behaviors, and interactions. By understanding the root causes of relational struggles, we can work toward meaningful change, helping you build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

 
A Client-Centered, Psychodynamic Approach
 I believe that therapy should be a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. That’s why I take a client-centered approach, meaning that I tailor therapy to your unique needs and goals. There is no one-size-fits-all solution—your experiences, emotions, and challenges are deeply personal, and therapy should reflect that.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy helps us uncover how past experiences, unconscious beliefs, and emotional patterns influence present-day relationships. Often, struggles in relationships are rooted in earlier life experiences—whether from childhood, past relationships, or unresolved emotional wounds. By bringing these hidden influences to light, we can begin to untangle the emotional barriers that may be keeping you from the connection and fulfillment you seek.

 
Experience and Qualifications:
 I have over eight years of experience working closely with clients to help them navigate life’s challenges. My qualifications include:
✔ Diploma in Psychotherapy and Counselling with a focus on Psychodynamic Psychotherapy and Compassionate Inquiry
✔ Special interest in men’s issues and relationship struggles
✔ Diploma from the Ontario Psychotherapy and Counselling Program
✔ Registered with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO)
✔ Member of the Canadian Association for Psychodynamic Therapy (CAPT)

 
Why Seek Therapy?
Men often face unique challenges in relationships, from difficulties in expressing emotions to feeling pressure to always appear strong. However, seeking support is not a sign of weakness—it’s an act of courage. Therapy provides a space where you can safely explore emotions, break unhealthy patterns, and build deeper connections with yourself and others.
 If you’re struggling with relationship difficulties, feeling emotionally stuck, or looking for a deeper understanding of yourself, I invite you to book a free initial consultation. Together, we can begin the journey toward healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
