Support for families. Healing for individuals. Space for couples.

Ryan’s therapeutic work is grounded in the belief that healing happens across three interconnected layers: the me (your relationship with yourself), the we (your relationships with others), and the thee (your connection to something greater—meaning, purpose, or spirituality).

Each of the approaches Ryan uses—IFS, Existential Therapy, Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Humanistic therapy—offers a unique doorway into understanding and strengthening these parts of your story. Whether you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or searching for clarity, his integrative approach is designed to help you reconnect with your inner sense of self, show up more authentically in your relationships, and navigate life’s deeper questions with curiosity and courage.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

  • IFS helps you explore the different “parts” of yourself—like the inner critic, the avoider, or the overachiever. It assumes all parts have good intentions, even if their actions cause pain.

  • IFS gives people a way to connect with themselves without shame. Instead of fighting your patterns, you learn to listen to them and lead with your core Self.

  • IFS can help you build compassion toward yourself, increase emotional clarity, and shift stuck internal patterns.

Existential Therapy

  • Existential therapy focuses on the big questions—meaning, identity, freedom, and what it means to live authentically.

  • When life falls apart or stops making sense, we don’t just need coping skills—we need space to wrestle with the deeper stuff. This approach creates room for that.

  • It helps you reflect on your values, make intentional choices, and reconnect with your sense of purpose.

Interpersonal Neurobiology

  • A brain-based framework that explores how our minds are shaped by relationships—and how we can use that awareness to change how we relate to ourselves and others.

  • Understanding how your nervous system and relationships influence each other is incredibly empowering. It takes the shame out of emotional patterns and reactions.

  • It can improve emotional regulation, relational communication, and your ability to feel connected and safe in your body and relationships.

  • Mindsight by Dr. Dan Siegel

Humanistic (Client-Centered) Therapy

  • A therapy approach based on the belief that people thrive in an environment of empathy, authenticity, and unconditional regard.

  • Therapy shouldn’t be about fixing you. It should be about giving you space to be seen, known, and supported as you find your own voice and direction.

  • You gain more self-trust, clarity, and confidence in who you are—without needing to perform or please.
