Rob Steffke
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I support clients in regaining authentic ways of being and acting. In times of challenge it is natural to move into a state of contraction, where it becomes difficult to imagine how to respond. When we're held in a supportive and trusted environment by someone who knows the territory of the distress, we can regain the ability to be with our difficulties and move from our own sense of knowing and guidance.
I work with men and women as they navigate the territories of relationship and parenthood, focusing especially on the challenges/opportunities of fatherhood and on how to embody healthy masculinity in today's world. I also specialize in working with teens, bringing 15+ years of experience working with adolescents.
I draw from experience in the areas of substance abuse, addiction, spirituality, and rites of passage. When appropriate, I combine traditional therapeutic approaches with experiential activities to expand the healing relationship, create new avenues for understanding, and reach youth who are resistant to therapy.
