You don't have to
figure it out alone.

Whether you're navigating stress, relationship strain, or a sense that something needs to shift — therapy offers a space to slow down, get honest, and move forward. I work with adults from all walks of life, including those in high-demand careers where vulnerability isn't always welcome.

What I Offer

Services

🌱

Individual Therapy

One-on-one sessions for adults working through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship patterns, anger, identity, and life transitions. Open to men, women, and people of all backgrounds. No minors.

🔥

Couples Therapy

For couples who want to communicate better, rebuild trust, or navigate major transitions together. I work with couples of all orientations and relationship structures.

Men's Groups

A structured group experience for men who want connection, accountability, and a space to talk honestly. These groups draw on years of men's group facilitation — a rare and powerful format.

About

Tyler Strong,
MSW, ASW

I came to therapy through a path that most clinicians haven't walked. Before earning my Master's in Social Work, I spent years in construction management — a world that demands toughness, precision, and the ability to hold it together under pressure. I know firsthand what it's like to carry stress without a clear outlet.

That background shapes how I work. I don't expect you to show up with the right words or emotional vocabulary. I meet people where they are — practically, directly, and without judgment.

My clinical approach draws on Hakomi, somatic therapy, and mindfulness-based practices. These aren't buzzwords. They're tools for helping you connect what's happening in your body to what's happening in your life — so that real change becomes possible, not just insight.

I've been involved in men's groups — as a participant and facilitator — for several years. That work has shaped me as much as any training.

How I Work

The Approach

Body-Centered

Insight alone rarely creates lasting change. Hakomi and somatic methods help us work with what the body holds — patterns, tension, and stored experience — not just what the mind knows.

Direct & Practical

Therapy doesn't have to feel abstract. I work in a grounded, plain-spoken way. If something isn't working, we adjust. The goal is real movement, not just conversation.

Relational

The therapeutic relationship itself is part of the work. A space that feels genuinely safe — not performatively safe — is where real honesty and growth become possible.

Mindfulness-Based

Present-moment awareness isn't a luxury or a trend. It's a foundational skill for regulating the nervous system, understanding patterns, and making different choices.
