— Who We Are

The Motive
Behind Motyv

How it Started

What started as a private therapy practice eight years ago has since developed into Motyv, a proactive program focused on guiding men toward lasting growth, freedom, and personal transformation.

From the start, the focus was on understanding the deeper “why” behind people’s actions and the character traits that shape them. Over time, the practice increasingly concentrated on helping men, and today it takes a direct approach, reaching out through speaking engagements, writing, and specialized programs to guide men toward lasting growth and freedom.

A Therapist Who Understands

Hey Brother, I’m
Shayden Bertagnolli.

As a licensed therapist, husband, father, and former athlete, I’ve had the privilege of walking this path with thousands of men.

I created Liberate because many men avoid traditional therapy, and too often, recovery programs are filled with shame or lack authenticity.

This program is different. It’s built by a therapist who understands the real challenges men face, combining professional insight with practical tools and a genuine understanding of what it takes to overcome and grow.
