Maplewood, MN 55117
Men, do you look put-together but feel disconnected inside? Perhaps "holding it together" isn't working anymore. Many men I work with carry anxiety, shame, or unwanted patterns that conflict with the life they desire with God and others. These struggles are not failures of discipline; they are signals from unresolved stories and earlier wounds. My work helps you understand those patterns, reduce internal strain, and move toward a life marked by grounded presence, meaningful connection, and a faith that engages your whole self.

Pre-Licensed Professional, BA

Maplewood, MN 55109
I am passionate about providing care to individual adults who are LGBTQ+, BIPOC, disabled, neurodivergent, fat, kinky, and/or non-monogamous.
Healing is a personal and political process. As a transgender man, I understand how hard it is to find a provider who can see the whole picture of who you are, your identities, and your experiences. You deserve a therapist who understands that. I want to support you in building a life that feels more authentic and sustainable. After all, you are not the problem. The problem is the problem. When we can see the problem for what it is, it creates space for us to dream and work towards a better future.

If you are searching for help with betrayal trauma, infidelity, sexual betrayal, or other relational trauma, you may feel like your reality has been turned upside down. Many describe this experience as disorienting, overwhelming, and difficult to make sense of—especially when trust and safety have been broken. My work focuses on helping you move through this disruption toward meaning-making, resilience, and a renewed sense of self, purpose, and direction.

Brian Burns - Couples and Discernment Counseling
Marriage & Family Therapist, MS, LMFT

Serves Area
Most of my work is in two main areas: Couples Counseling - for adults in committed relationships who want the skills and understanding to get back into closer connection, and Discernment Counseling - for couples who are stuck or confused about whether marriage or divorce is the right path forward.
I help couples in conflict who want to get to a better place. I enjoy working with spouses and parents in challenging family situations to help them find clarity and resolution. I offer a practical approach with usable feedback and guidance. We spend less time talking about the past or who is to blame, and more time talking about what you can do about it, now. My work with clients is compassionate and direct. I’m not afraid to call out behaviors that are harming the relationship. You will learn how to quickly move back into connection.

I provide a safe and comfortable place to explore what is troubling you. This includes identifying what you’re struggling with and discovering your natural strengths. Successful therapy includes identifying what you would like to change AND what you are doing well. Everyone experiences pain and we all deserve a safe place to heal and find what we need to create (or re-create) a life that feels meaningful. When life becomes painful and challenging, it’s normal to feel imbalanced and hopeless that you will ever feel whole again. I believe you can feel whole again.

I help thoughtful adults untangle self-criticism, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and emotional overwhelm so they can reconnect with their values and feel more grounded.
My approach integrates attachment-based, existential, parts-based, and humanistic therapy with nervous system awareness and self-compassion. We explore how early relationships, culture, gender, faith, race, health, and sexual identity shape present-day patterns, while building insight and practical tools for emotional regulation and healthier connection.
