It's not a free market. It's a highly regulated guild that determines state licensing laws.
Many boys and men don't seek help because they know that about 75% of clinical psychologists are women, and therapists' offices are not welcoming places for men to express masculine identities, traits, concerns, political attitudes, sexual concerns, or family values.https://twitter.com/SPSMM_D51/status/1088458221038186496 …

I had an interesting discussion this weekend regarding the APA putting "stoicism" on the toxic list, which is obviously dumb. The thought was this. Therapists don't see a representative cross section of the population, they only see troubled men, so they have sampling bias.

...and within their biased sample, stoicism may be a barrier to therapy. So what is a good trait for basically everyone, they perceive as a bad trait because of their narrow sample. It was a curious idea.

Yep – related, we found men prefer talking involving step-by-step help, rather than just talking for the sake of it (e.g. study on men phoning helplines, and how to help to get men to use them as much as women do http://www.thehuntingdynasty.com/our-works/how-do-you-convince-men-to-telephone-a-helpline/ …)
