Before becoming a therapist, Brian spent 15 years serving as a pastor, an experience that shaped his deep empathy and commitment to relational repair. He has worked as a therapist for 11 years and pursued advanced training in attachment and somatic approaches, combining clinical skills with a pastoral sensitivity to suffering and growth.

Brian is a LMHC, which means Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and he holds license FL LMHC MH16664.

His practice emphasizes attuned, caring connection as the foundation for healing and practical change.

Attachment and Emotion-Focused Care Online

Brian uses attachment-based therapy to help people and couples understand how early relationship patterns shape current connection and trust. This approach focuses on identifying attachment needs and building more reliable emotional bonds, which can be especially helpful for issues like abandonment, infidelity, or chronic relationship conflict.

Client-centered therapy is another central approach he employs. It emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, giving clients space to explore their feelings and values while the therapist reflects and supports growth. This method supports self-esteem, clearer communication, and personal agency.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) complements these approaches by helping partners recognize and change interaction patterns that drive distance or escalation. EFT is useful for couples working to rebuild intimacy and repair emotional injuries.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Brian works collaboratively with each person or couple to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals can deliver these approaches effectively through online sessions, and therapy by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility to fit different schedules and life circumstances. Online work can make consistent progress more accessible while preserving the relational focus of in-person care.
