Here to Help You Love Your Life and Your Relationships.
Therapy + Coaching
in Buffalo, MN and virtually.
Mental wellness and healthy relationships don't just happen, we must create them. We teach you how to manage your brain and the distance, disconnect, and conflict in your life so that you can feel better. Let's create healthy communication and strong connections.
We want you to love your life and your relationships.
Humans are made for connection.
Your mental health has an impact on your relationships and your relationships have an impact on your mental health. It can bring so much pain when you don't know how to get the connection you desire, and you are left feeling like you need and want more from your relationships. Lets take care of you so you can have the connected life that we all want.
We all experience times of struggle. distance, disconnect and conflict.
For most, the coping strategy is to ride that wave, and wait for things to feel good again. They never address the root cause, or truly understand the emotional experience that they are having and how to address it. Without taking a proactive approach and seeking the help of a professional, these individuals often go through life riding the highs and lows without the crucial mental health. communication, and relationship skills that bring connection, satisfaction, and happiness. Its important that you know this: healthy lives and relationships don’t just happen. Like anything else worth having, we must be intentional and create them.
Hi! I 'm Brett
Healing mental health and hard relationships is both my passion and a privilege.
I provide counseling and coaching for real individuals with real problems just like yours. So many mental health struggles are tied to our past experiences in relationships. Healing these things and learning how to create new healthy relationships with ourself and others allows us to have a more connected life and experience fewer symptoms of mental unhealth. No one taught you the skills you need to work through these things and have successful relationships, so that's where I come in.
​
I am a certified life and relationship coach and licensed marriage and family therapist. The work that I do is all about supporting you and transforming your relationships from disconnected patterns of conflict to a process that creates understanding, connection, and passion. I bring the best tools from within the therapy and coaching fields to solve even the toughest relationship problems. I cannot wait to watch you transform!
Who I Serve
At Pivotal Approach, I help couples and individuals that are experiencing dysfunction, mental health struggles, and relationship pain in their life. Often, they are stuck wondering where to get help or are feeling disconnected in their relationships and don’t know how to get that feeling of connection back. It can be challenging to find support when it feels too personal to go to friends or family. This is when seeking professional help is the best option!
Not all therapists are created equal. I have specialized training that uses evidence-based techniques from both the coaching and the therapy industries that are proven to work. People experience higher levels of happiness and feel more managed in their life after working with Pivotal Approach.
If you believe therapy cannot possibly work for you because either you have tried it before and it didn’t work, or you believe your pain is too deep, your problems are too big, or your patterns are too fixed Pivotal Approach is the place for you. We take a unique approach that blends future focused Life coaching techniques with healing therapy techniques that are logical and easy to apply to your life. Sign up for a free 20 minute consultation and experience the difference.
So whether its anxiety, depression, PTSD, or relationships between family members, friends and the relationship with yourself, I am here to help. The techniques I use for success in my work can be easily modified and used with anybody in any relationship and many mental health struggles.
Don’t stay stuck.
Many couples and individuals put off seeking help and think they will handle their challenges on their own, only to find that little changes. So many clients tell me they wish they would have taken action sooner, since our sessions together make them more confident, secure, and satisfied in their life.
