What does it really take to support men's mental health? In this episode of Beyond the Window, we go inside La Ventana Treatment Programs with the people on the front lines.
Hear from Clinical Directors Bryce Colvard, LMFT and Carla Fernandez, LCSW, Staff Trainer Allison Silipigni, and Mental Health Technician Joshua Peraza as they pull back the curtain on their work. They share raw stories about breaking down stigma, why "anger is just the surface emotion," and the transformative power of holding a boundary with empathy.
This is a candid look at the challenges, breakthroughs, and human connection that define modern mental health treatment.
Listen to discover:
- How to see past surface-level behaviors (like anger) to the real issues.
- The unique experience of women and men working in men's mental health.
- Why a "safe space" is built on structure and boundaries, not just comfort.
- The powerful, reparative work that helps clients rewrite their stories.
