Counseling for Men
You've Been Carrying this
Long Enough
Practical, structured counseling for men ready to actually deal with what's been building - marital strain, identity, burnout, anger, and sexual integrity.
You're Carrying More Than You're Letting On
Most men don't walk into a counselor's office because they love talking about feelings. They come because something isn't working — at home, at work, or inside — and the usual ways of pushing through it aren't cutting it anymore.
Maybe you're hitting a wall in your marriage. Maybe the career that defined you no longer feels like enough. Maybe you've been wrestling privately with something — pornography, purpose, a slow drift from the man you wanted to be — and it's time to actually deal with it.
North Texas carries its own version of this pressure. The culture in communities like Plano, Frisco, and Allen — where high-performance careers, church involvement, and the expectation of holding it together as a husband and father all overlap — you're expected to provide, lead, succeed professionally, and show up at home without complaint. When something goes wrong internally, there often isn't an obvious place to take it.
That's exactly what this is for.
What Men Work On Here
This isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Most men I work with are navigating some combination of:
Marriage & Relationships
Communication breakdowns, distance, or repeating conflict patterns.
Identity & Purpose
Navigating who you are and where you are going at this stage of life.
Career & Burnout
High-performance pressure, transitions, and the true cost of success.
Sexual Integrity
Breaking patterns of pornography and shame to find connection.
Emotional Regulation
Dealing with anger, numbness, or pressure before the explosion.
Faith & Spiritual Drift
Bridging the gap between your public spiritual life and private reality.

Why Many Men Avoid Counseling — and Why That's Changing
Research consistently shows that men are far less likely than women to seek mental health support — not because they struggle less, but because of the cultural messages they've absorbed about strength, self-reliance, and what it means to need help.
That's starting to shift. More men are recognizing that working through hard things — with real guidance, not just willpower — is itself a form of strength.
"As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another."

~ Proverbs 27:17
How This Works — and Why It's Different
My approach is direct and structured. You'll understand what's actually driving your challenges — not just the surface behavior — and you'll leave each session with specific tools to use before the next one.
With over 25 years of experience and doctoral-level training in Marriage and Family Therapy from Texas Tech University, I work with men who want to make real progress, not just vent.
Sessions are available in-person in Plano, TX and via teletherapy across Texas and Idaho. Many men find teletherapy particularly practical — no commute, no waiting room, and you can do the work from wherever you are.
A Note on Faith
My practice is grounded in a Christian worldview, and that perspective shapes how I understand identity, purpose, and what it means to be a man. You don't need to share my beliefs to benefit from this work — what matters is that you're willing to do it.
