Marriage Counselors in Brentwood, TN

I love connecting with new people because I'm a people person. Another love is that I want to help people in any way possible - counseling them, giving them advice or mentoring them through life. I value & respect each person that comes my way!

Hi, I'm Josh. Finding hope, peace, and confidence can feel impossible when you're caught in personal or relational struggles, but it doesn't have to be. I work with individuals and couples who are ready to address where they are and take meaningful steps toward the life and relationships they truly want. If you're feeling stuck, unsure of how you got here or how to move forward, you're not alone—and you've come to the right place. I believe that *if you could have solved this alone, you would have already.* When you’ve done your best and things still aren’t working, it’s time to use that dreaded four-letter word: help. Enlisting the help of a trusted professional can be a game-changer—opening up new perspectives, discovering underlying issues, resolving unresolved trauma, clarifying next steps, and providing accountability. Like everyone, I've needed support and guidance at key times in my life. Unlike many, I sought it out and experienced firsthand how the right support at the right time can bring about lasting life change. Every week, I have the privilege of working with courageous individuals who recognize that something isn’t working for them and want something better or different. Together, we address issues such as a lack of closeness in key relationships, communication breakdowns, unhealthy conflict patterns, grief, trauma, addiction, infidelity, and more. If that's what you need, and that's what you want—let’s get started. We’ll explore where you’re coming from, where you want to go, and determine if we’re the right fit for this journey. While I'm not a licensed counselor, I bring over 20 years of experience working with individuals, teens, couples, families, and groups. I'm also nearing the completion of my doctorate, specializing in rebuilding emotional intimacy after destructive behaviors like addiction and infidelity have broken trust.

I obtained a masters certification in coaching from Grand Canyon University in 2018, but I have loved helping people my entire life. I have a bachelors in counseling and have been in the helping industry for 15 years. I find joy in being part of a person's process to becoming their best self.

At the outset of counseling, the client normally communicates their desire to work on two main goals, a desire to; 1) better understand themselves and their actions and 2) to improve a meaningful relationship in their life (or possibly several).
