Individual and Couples Therapy

People come to therapy for different reasons — but most share something in common. There's a pattern that keeps repeating. A feeling of being stuck. Something that isn't working, even when they're trying hard to change it.

This is the work I find most meaningful: slowing things down enough to understand what's actually happening beneath the surface, and helping people respond differently — not just once, but in a lasting way.

Individual Therapy

Individual therapy is a space to look honestly at what's happening in your inner life — the patterns in your relationships, the feelings that keep showing up, the places where you feel stuck or unclear.

Much of my work is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), a therapeutic approach that helps people understand the different parts of themselves — the parts that protect, the parts that carry pain, and the parts that have been driving certain patterns without you fully realizing it. As people begin to relate to these parts with more curiosity and less judgment, real change becomes possible.

This also includes men dealing with more private struggles — pornography, unwanted sexual behavior, or compulsive patterns that feel difficult to talk about or break alone.

This isn't about analyzing your past endlessly or managing symptoms. It's about developing a deeper understanding of yourself — one that actually changes how you show up in your life and relationships.

Couples Therapy

Most couples don't arrive in therapy because of one big event. They come because the same moments keep happening — the same argument, the same distance, the same feeling of not quite reaching each other — and they're tired of it.

In our work together, we slow those cycles down. Rather than focusing only on what was said or who was right, we look at what's happening underneath: what each person is carrying into those moments, what they're trying to protect, and what they actually need. That's where the real shift happens — not just in how you communicate, but in how you understand each other.

I also work with couples before marriage, using the Prepare/Enrich framework to help partners understand their patterns and build on their strengths before those patterns become entrenched.

Areas I work with

  • Men who feel disconnected, under pressure, or unsure of where they’re headed

  • Relationships caught in the same arguments or patterns that don’t change

  • Pornography or sexual patterns that feel difficult to stop or out of control

  • Couples working through conflict, distance, or preparing for marriage

  • Infidelity, betrayal, and the process of rebuilding trust

  • Anxiety, low mood, or feeling overwhelmed without a clear reason why

  • Questions around faith, meaning, and spiritual direction
