Our Story

Molly and I got married right before I started Air Force pilot training. The military lifestyle was hard on our marriage, and we started to fall out of love.

Our marriage suffered every time we moved. We wanted to build a loving home for our children, but we didn't know how. All we felt was anger, resentment, and hurt feelings.

We finally started therapy after my first deployment, but it didn’t help much. We worked with five therapists over five years, but nothing changed.

Therapist #6 saved our marriage. We made more progress in five sessions with her than we had in five years with other therapists.

Our new therapist used an approach called Crucible Therapy. It was nothing like the Gottman and EFT therapy we had done before.

Crucible Therapy changed our lives. I signed up for training as soon as I got my own therapy license.

How it Works

I do strength-based therapy. I won’t validate your victimhood, but I will help you claim your power.

I’m blunt and direct. You’ll never wonder what I really think.

I offer three-hour sessions and multi-day intensives.

If you don’t live in California, I provide online relationship coaching to clients all over the world.

Most couples see meaningful progress after 5-10 sessions. Complex cases take longer.

Your first session is free. If you’ve already tried therapy or coaching, expect this to be different.
