Teen life comes with a lot of stress. School, friends, sports, hobbies, and social media can all feel heavy at times. For many teens, this stress comes and goes, and they are able to bounce back after a rough week or a tough test. Sometimes, though, something really hard happens and that stress does not […]
READ MOREWhen Anger Is Really Anxiety in Disguise Teen anger can catch parents off guard. One month your teen is talkative and easygoing, and the next month you are dealing with slammed doors, sharp comments, and explosive reactions over small things. It is easy to label this as attitude or disrespect. Yet many families later learn […]
READ MOREDivorce is a big word, and for many families, just thinking about it brings up a heavy mix of emotions. Tension, sadness, confusion, or fear, those feelings don’t wait for the paperwork. They tend to show up before any real decisions get made. That’s why some couples try slowing things down with a different kind […]
READ MOREFinding the right counselor for teens can feel like a lot to take on.

READ MOREThe words “anxiety” and “depression” get said a lot, and sometimes they even get mixed together like they mean the same thing. But they aren’t. Someone might feel anxious but full of energy, while another person might feel low and disconnected, almost like they’re watching life from the outside. These feelings can show up in […]

I highly recommend Bryan for individual and couples therapy. He always made me feel comfortable and I felt like I could be myself which is super important when going to counseling.
Samantha’s massages always relieve my shoulder pain and IT band tension. She targets problem areas and has greatly improved my mobility. Thank you, Sam – you’re amazing!
I met with Bryan for about 8 months. I began meeting with him individually (for about 5 months) and for the final 3 months, my partner and I went together. We cannot be any more emphatic when we say that our experience with Bryan was wonderful.
Bryan demonstrates a superb level of care and commitment to his clients. He fosters an environment of openness, honesty, and acceptance that allows clients to confront their flaws and limitations in order to heal and make changes for the better. It is clear that Bryan is in this profession for all the right reasons and is gifted as a counselor. I would strongly recommend him to anyone.
Thank you Bryan!
To put it simply Bryan is a superstar! Yes, he is an excellent therapist...I have several family members and friends who have been referred to him, and he is absolutely wonderful. He has and uses a Christian foundation with his counseling and has a calm, pleasant demeanor that puts his patients at ease. He is insightful with his approach to therapy and I would recommend him to any colleague, friend, or patient without reservation.
I started working with Bryan 7 months prior to writing this review. I went alone in hopes that he could help with some relationship issues I was unable to solve on my own. Bryan has been nothing short of a miracle in my life. My story is still being written, but I look forward to my appointments with him. He is calm, kind-hearted, and genuinely wants me to succeed. He looks at every angle and gives guidance/suggestions that only betters my situation. Bryan is extremely intelligent and knows how to help people. Better than that he enjoys helping people. I will continue to refer him to anyone and everyone. True companionate people are not just hard to find but he does with the intent of actually building his patients up. I can not say enough great things about him, and strongly recommend him to anyone in need.
My husband and I met with Bryan for about 5 months. The time and money we spent were without a doubt, one of the very best investments we have made for our marriage. The care and commitment with which Bryan treats his clients are outstanding. He patiently, kindly, and honestly helps clients understand situations or wounds with clarity to which he offers sound and concrete steps towards healing. Bryan helped my husband and I to grow as individuals as well as together as a couple, and our marriage was strengthened tremendously.
After our marriage counseling concluded, I continued to meet with Bryan individually for about 3 months. Bryan helped me to understand my need for a better relationship with God which sent me on a journey that completely changed my life. I continue to live with the same struggles (from an incurable medical issue) yet I no longer suffer from the debilitating depression it used to cause me. I will never be able to adequately thank Bryan for the gift his counseling gave me and my marriage.
I would highly recommend Bryan to anyone.
Thank you, Bryan!
