Hey!
Thank you for supporting Guys Psych Club, and helping me to make a lasting change in the lives of many struggling guys out there.
You might be wondering by now… who is this Andy guy??
I thought a good way to start would be to introduce myself…
Unlike the 1000s of health gurus, I am very qualified in psychology and mental health.
I don’t say this to brag, but rather to fill you with some confidence that what you will get at all times is evidence-based or practice-based tools.
What makes you qualified to speak Andy??
Great question… and I am an open-book when it comes to sharing what I know.
So far, I have a:
Bachelor of Psychology (Majored in Cognitive Neuroscience)
Honours of Psychology
Masters of Clinical Psychology (Finishing Nov 2025)
In short, that’s alot of years of having my face planted in a book or computer screen…
But, I’ve enjoyed every minute of it, and I love that now I am getting more clinical and direct experience with men to upskill my theory knowledge with real life knowledge.
Why are you so passionate about helping males with their mental health?
Like many of us, I went through my own mental battles, and still do in many ways.
Through this process of healing I became motivated to learn more about the brain, the mind, neurochemistry, and human behaviour.
One big thing that stood out to me in my university studies is that many of the examples or strategies did not resonate with me… as a guy.
I would often think - “I would never want that” or “this seems overly feminine…”
Now, for many people, that works terrific.
But, for me, my friendship groups, and the guys around me in my networks - those kind of tools and approaches would never work.
I want practical tools, no-fluff language, clearly defined goals, and a focus on what I can do and change.
And my experience so far is - many guys want the same as I do.
So I thought, if I want to see a change, why not be the change.
I could go on forever, but I think my appearance on the YoungBlood Podcast summarises much of what I want to say:
