Are you aware of any social drama that has deeply hurt his feelings?

We had bucket loads of social drama with our one D in HS – and she would not offer the details – it was very helpful for her to see a therapist once a week.

When she was younger, I dragged her to 2 different therapists, against her will, in hopes that she’d click with one of them and get help. She was clearly unhappy and I didn’t know what else to do. She sat on the couch and refused to engage with either therapist, so we dropped it.

Junior year of HS, she finally said she was ready to see someone and I was overjoyed. Perhaps there is less stigma for girls? I don’t know.

OP, what would happen if you insisted on taking him to a (male?) therapist?
