Therapy for Men and Couples

therapy for men and couples with Bruce Hearn, LMFT


Are you struggling in your relationship? Does it feel like your partner doesn’t understand you? Perhaps the happy moments have given way to conflict and mistrust.

If you’re living in the Bay Area, you might be grappling with the pressures of work and your relationships. Do you find yourself easily angered, or feeling lost and isolated? Do you find yourself sabotaging yourself, messing up your potential? Are you overly critical of yourself and those around you? It’s about time to seek a healthier balance.

In my work with men and couples, I help people step back and take a closer look at what’s going on. You can develop a more grounded presence, forge deeper connections with your loved ones, and show up with more energy at work and at home. You might learn to be more present in your relationships, build a stronger sense of self-worth, and discover a clearer sense of purpose in your life.

Ways I have helped people

Some of the ways I’ve helped people include:

  • Taking a closer look at ways you sabotage yourself, and seek to end these behaviors.
  • Understand the emotional dynamics in your relationships
  • Cope more effectively with the effects of ADHD and neurodiversity
  • When you’re too hard on yourself, work better with the inner critic
  • Making sense of difficult relationship experiences, past and present
  • Understanding cross-cultural and temperamental differences in relationships
  • Exploring and managing strong emotions and emotional reactivity

Getting Started

You might have a clear reason that is causing you to consider therapy. Do you want to better understand yourself? To take this understanding and make use of it as a guiding force in your life? Maybe the reason you’re thinking about therapy is a loss of a sense of purpose, a relationship on the brink, or a big decision that’s hard to make. I can help you sort through the complex thoughts and feelings that you’ve been feeling stuck with, and start to get clearer on what you want.

Therapy is a very personal experience, and one size does not fit all. If you think we might work well together, get in touch and we can get into it.
