-- Dr. David J. Schlosz Announces Innovative Therapy Services Focused on Men’s Mental Health
Dr. David J. Schlosz, a trauma-informed therapist based in Austin, Texas, has officially launched specialized therapy services aimed at helping men confront and overcome the crippling effects of shame and relational pain. His practice, Therapy with David, provides a safe, supportive space for clients to explore their emotions and rebuild connections, utilizing a unique approach that blends evidence-based techniques with the relational philosophy of Ubuntu.
“Shame kills creativity, mutes self-expression, and keeps us from being known,” says Dr. Schlosz. “Healing starts when we allow ourselves to be seen and heard in a compassionate space.”
Dr. Schlosz’s mission is deeply personal. As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and conversion therapy, he brings unparalleled empathy and understanding to his work, guiding clients on their path to self-acceptance and growth.
Tackling Shame Through Connection
Shame often stems from feelings of inadequacy, unworthiness, or fear of judgment, while relational pain originates in the fractures and betrayals experienced in close relationships. Both can be isolating, leading to emotional and psychological barriers that impact every aspect of life.
Dr. Schlosz’s approach draws on Relational-Cultural Theory (RCT), a therapeutic model that prioritizes the relationship between therapist and client as the primary tool for change. By creating an equitable and collaborative environment, Dr. Schlosz empowers clients to explore and dismantle harmful beliefs, address emotional wounds, and build healthier interpersonal connections.
Clients can expect tailored support, including strategies to:
- Identify and challenge limiting beliefs.
- Heal emotional trauma through compassionate self-reflection.
- Foster meaningful, authentic relationships.
This holistic and relationship-focused method has made Therapy with David a sought-after resource for men struggling with shame and relational challenges.
Ubuntu Philosophy: Healing Through Community
Born in South Africa, Dr. Schlosz incorporates the African philosophy of Ubuntu into his practice, emphasizing the interconnectedness of humanity. “Ubuntu means ‘I am because we are.’ It reminds us that we come to know ourselves through our relationships with others,” explains Dr. Schlosz.
This relational perspective is central to his work, offering clients the tools to rediscover themselves within a supportive and nonjudgmental framework. Dr. Schlosz credits Ubuntu for shaping his understanding of the transformative power of connection, a principle echoed in testimonials from clients worldwide.
A Voice for Mental Health and LGBTQ+ Advocacy
In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Schlosz is a vocal advocate for LGBTQ+ mental health. His doctoral research, The Impact of Conversion Therapy on Gay Identity Development, highlights the long-term harm caused by such practices while providing a platform for healing and resilience.
Dr. Schlosz’s story resonates globally, with clients from Australia, Denmark, Canada, and beyond praising his ability to create a safe and affirming space. His commitment to advocacy extends to his podcast, Project I Am with Dr. David J. Schlosz, where he shares insights and resources to support mental health and self-discovery.
