Marriage Counseling & Coaching

A marriage that feels
fully alive.

Small changes. Deep courage. Online + In Person · DFW & Worldwide

Marriage isn’t supposed to be fine. It’s meant to be vibrant, honest, erotic, and spiritually grounded. Since 2002, I’ve been walking with couples who want more than just getting along. They want to grow up, wake up, and live fully alive in the space between them.

Is this you?

You’re not broken.
But something isn’t working.

The couples and individuals I work with aren’t people who’ve given up. They’re people who are hungry for more integrity, more courage, and more connection — not just more techniques.

If you’re tired of living on autopilot and ready to do the deeper work, you’re in the right place.

Stuck in the same fights about sex, money, parenting, or faith
One of you wants help more than the other
You love each other but you’ve drifted into roommates or co-parents
Sex feels pressured, avoidant, or simply absent
Successful everywhere else in life, but feel small or reactive at home
You want more — but you’re not sure what that looks like or how to get there

The approach

Not tips. Not formulas.
Something that actually changes you.

My work draws from the Crucible approach and differentiation-based models of marriage. The goal isn’t to fix your relationship — it’s to help you grow up inside of it.

01 Differentiation

A stronger self makes a better marriage

Most marriage problems aren’t communication problems — they’re identity problems. When you know who you are, you stop needing your spouse to confirm it for you.

02 Sexual-Marital Therapy

Your fullest sexual and relational potential

Beyond treating dysfunction, the goal is to help you achieve fullest sexual potential and, in the process, become more independent, emotionally free, and spiritually developed.

03 Faith-Friendly

Scripture without pat answers

I take faith seriously — but I don’t offer “pray it away” advice. We explore how your beliefs can anchor real change: deeper honesty, better boundaries, more wholehearted love.

Marriage Intensives

More than an hour.
More than weekly.

Most couples are used to the standard model: one hour a week. But for many people, that pace stalls. Sessions turn into weekly catch-up. Real momentum gets lost.

Intensive therapy is different by design. Longer, closely spaced sessions create the time and continuity needed to work through issues in real time — with less room to dodge what matters.

Turning points tend to happen faster when you have enough time and support to stay with the hard parts instead of postponing them.

Faith & Marriage

Spiritually grounded.
Not formulaic.

Many of the couples I work with are Christians who love God and each other — and are still struggling. That’s not a contradiction. It’s actually the norm.

“We’ll explore how your faith can anchor real change: deeper honesty, better boundaries, and a more wholehearted way of loving.”

I take Scripture and spiritual growth seriously. But I don’t offer pat religious answers. The goal is a marriage that reflects who you’re actually becoming — not who you think you’re supposed to be.

The 100-year mission.

I’m working to impact one marriage at a time — because that marriage could produce kids who get married, who have kids who get married, and on it goes. That one marriage could create a legacy felt 100 years from now. That one marriage is yours.
