Male Therapists in Charlottesville, VA

You're tired of arguing over small things that somehow turn into major conflicts. What used to be minor disagreements now leave both of you feeling drained, misunderstood, and wondering if things will ever change. Despite your best efforts, the same patterns keep repeating—criticism, defensiveness, and emotional distance have become the norm.
As a Gottman Method Level 3 practitioner, I help couples break free from these exhausting cycles. Instead of rehashing past arguments or debating who's right, we'll implement practical, evidence-based strategies that create immediate shifts in how you communicate and connect.

Life's journey is rough. Not every path is smooth or easy and many are difficult and even dangerous. There are times we need someone to walk with us; perhaps help us find a new direction. Having someone that understands because he's been there, makes all the difference in the world. In addition to working with couples and families, he enjoys bringing hope to men. He understands the struggles men face. He shares life and relational skills, including: developing problem solving skills, overcoming depression, reducing anxiety, having victory over addiction, growing through life development stages and recovering from the symptoms of trauma.

Hi, I'm Chuck Rodgers, the founder and one of the therapists at our Center. I became frustrated with traditional 45 minute sessions & grew tired of seeing my clients leave frustrated & hurting at the end of yet one more session that drug therapy out week after week. Thus so, I decided that I was going to do it differently. Because of this I have narrowed my focus to working in 1 & 2 Day Intensive formats and have now made it available on the weekend. Marriage Trouble? Let's do a weekend and change that...

Feeling anxious or depressed is a reasonable response to living in an uncertain world. For many of us, recent years have brought loss and trauma. It may feel like you will never heal. Learning to cope and adapt may feel overwhelming. You want to be your "old self again," but it feels impossible. You may have tried to heal yourself, only to realize you need help. You may hesitate to seek help for fear of being judged. You may feel that you are alone in your struggles, but I want you to know that you are not alone. There is hope.

Hello. I'm Jeff Watros. Since 1995, I have been practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Perhaps you've noticed one reality that applies to everyone of us: interaction with other human beings.

However, relationships can be repaired with a willing heart and humble attitude.

I work with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship, identity, personal and professional growth. I could not cover all 24 years of work though. Ask me. Insight through understanding your present life, relationships and your desired future can lead to increased success and satisfaction. My advanced clinical training was in Austin, TX. I am also experienced working with children/adolescents. Currently, I see adults and teens in individual, couples and group therapy soon. I have presented on topics of social development and skills, personal change, life choices, angry behavior control and character development.

Life in a human body is hard, and none of us were made to go through it alone. Healthy Relationships are what heal those parts of us that feel broken, shut off, or disconnected. In a healing therapeutic relationship, you can discover the place inside that was always whole, safe, and protected and regain those parts that you may feel are lost or damaged. Whether you are facing issues of anxiety, overwhelming stress, depression, anger, trauma, grief, paralyzing fear, that feeling of being stuck, or some other difficulty, together we will mindfully navigate life's many challenges with kindness, respect, and compassionate courage.

In my therapy practice, I work collaboratively with children, adolescents, adults, and families to identify and counter unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns and ultimately help them to live happier, more successful lives. Using a scientifically supported approach, the therapy work frequently includes discussions of brain functioning and why we act as we do, learning about and practicing concrete strategies to improve day-to-day functioning, and identifying and changing problematic habits (e.g., with thought patterns, exercise, sleep, screens, social interactions, etc).

I help individuals find desired change, relief, and insight by increasing understanding and awareness of their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I teach practical coping skills and guide clients in reprocessing distressing experiences and memories. With a mindfulness and strength-based approach, one technique I offer, as needed, is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing). Through this work together, you'll connect more with your inner, positive voice and truths, and decrease automatic behaviors and thoughts that make "small" issues feel overwhelming, that cause "freezing" or fighting. This results in more comfort with yourself and more confidence with other people or situations.

I have worked successfully with a wide variety of families, couples, and individuals. My goals are always to help people improve their lives and ability to work with others by choosing better approaches and developing greater empathy for one another. Coming out of my doctoral program I specialized in work with complex, conflicted families, including high conflict divorce cases. More recently, I have worked extensively with adolescents and their families dealing with difficulties like Borderline Personality Disorder, self-harm/suicidality, and Autism Spectrum Disorder.
