Bryan specializes in couples/marriage therapy and has helped couples recover from affairs and other betrayals, improve their communication, increase relational intimacy, prepare for the next step in their relationship, and learn innovative skills to be effective parents.

Information

Research indicates the most important aspect of therapy is the relationship the therapist has with his or her clients. Bryan works hard to build a strong helping relationship with his clients in order to develop trust and understanding. These foundational relationship components help Bryan understand his clients’ experience and provide clients with a personalized therapy plan, rooted in evidence-based treatment. In addition, Bryan’s many areas of expertise help him to be creative in his approach to helping clients achieve their goals.

Bryan’s areas of expertise include couples therapy, treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, anxiety, depression, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, behavior problems in childhood, parenting skill development, and helping families improve their communication and relationships.


Special Considerations

Bryan can also apply a Christian or Biblical perspective to the therapeutic relationship if so desired by his clients. This is entirely optional and dependent on client request.
