Infidelity Therapists in North East, Pasadena, CA

With over 30 years of pastoral and professional counseling background, I offer an experienced and empathic approach to couples and individuals who are dealing with relational or personal challenges. Common issues that I work with include anxiety, unprocessed family of origin experiences, sexual trauma, addictions, infidelity, spiritual direction, and reconciliation. My intention as a therapist is to listen, to love and to learn my client's life story, with the hope of engaging individuals and couples into the reality of fulfilling futures, transformative change, and authentic, healthy relationships.

Girl, you’re exhausted. Looking at the clock, you see the day is almost over, and your to-do list is longer now than it was this morning. There are simply not enough hours in the day to get everything done. You’re drowning as each new task threatens to drag you under and leave you gasping for air. Just when you’re about to take a moment for yourself, someone asks you for help, and your guilt won’t allow you to say “no.” You haven’t been able to take time for yourself in years. Lately, your existence seems to belong to everyone but you. You don’t even remember the dreams and goals you once had. There must be more to life than this.

You are seeking a therapist because you are in emotional pain. Are you struggling with an addiction – sex, alcohol, drugs, or gambling? Have you been abused as a child or in an adult relationship? Have you experienced sexual assault, violence or other trauma? Are you experiencing issues with your significant other or other relationships? Sometimes addiction, depression, anger, and anxiety can happen because of a trauma history. Treating trauma can help you get your emotional health back and free you from addictive behavior and pain.

However you may have arrived here, I hope you consider this your invitation to enter a process of healing, renewed hope, and self-becoming. In therapy, we bring a sense of liberation to your emotions, experiences, and identity, and grow toward a sense of confidence to make the changes you desire. It’s my passion to see and understand my client’s experiences and to tend to your goals through an affirming, collaborative, and caring process.

I primarily work with leaders and their family members to find healthy work/life rhythms, manage stress, heal from trauma, and develop strategies for health. As a pastor and licensed clinical psychologist (PSY35006), I work with individuals, couples, adolescents, and children who are facing varying challenges in life to find pathways through pain and into healing, growth, and vitality.

For men wishing to put the love back into your marriage - therapy can help to get you there. Just stop waiting. Couples in conflict wait an average of six years before getting help. And we all know how men especially avoid asking for help. Come with your wife or come by yourself, but take a step forward. With thirty years of experience and the author of three books, I’m an expert in understanding how men and women can better relate, communicate and manage conflict. Start loving, laughing and talking again. Your next step is a phone call away. Call me to get started now.

Couples tend to be drawn to each other's uniqueness and differences when they first meet. Differences can ignite an initial spark and a sense of excitement in a relationship. Challenges and potential disconnections can arise from the same differences that initially sparked attraction over time. Different communication styles, cultural backgrounds, or approaches to handling stress and conflict can lead to tension.

The process of healing in therapy is a journey - one that opens doors to see ourselves differently and accept ourselves more fully. It allows for there to be space to sit with our innermost thoughts and feelings as we bear witness to the courageous process towards renewal and growth. Through a safe, genuine, and empathetic therapeutic experience, my goal as a psychotherapist is to provide an opportunity for my clients to express their pain and hardships as we explore ways to move towards fulfillment, wellness, and achieving their goals in life.
