About Brian

MA, Counseling Psychology
Ed.S., Couples and Family Therapy
Certified Imago Relationship Therapist

I help clients understand and alleviate psychological pain by providing a safe, non-judgmental, environment for them to process their life experience. I believe that pain is growth trying to happen. Good therapy should be an empowering experience.

My mission is to provide compassionate mental health care to individuals, couples, and families in need. I welcome all races, religions, sexual orientations, gender identities, countries of origin, abilities, and ethnicities.

I strive to reduce the fear and anxiety often associated with seeking therapeutic services. My manner is warm and welcoming; my interventions are honest, intelligent, therapeutically sound and effective. I engender a therapeutic relationship which clients find non-threatening, challenging, empowering and ultimately life-changing. Clients consider me an advocate.

Imago Relationship Therapy

My therapies for families and couples are based on Imago Relationship Therapy, a highly effective method that helps you reconnect with others. Using a new technique of communicating called the Imago dialogue, you’ll learn a way of listening and speaking that helps you and your partner learn more about each other.

My Imago-based therapy services for couples include joint counseling sessions as well as a half-day intensive Relationship Rescue for couples in serious crisis.
