Hi – I’m Dr. Brandon McQueen, a San Diego State University trained licensed therapist, with over a decade of experience helping couples break toxic patterns, rebuild trust, and reconnect.

When couples walk into my office, they’re often carrying years of resentment, confusion, or just silence. My job is to create a space where you can finally hear—and be heard by—each other again. Whether you’re fighting all the time, avoiding hard conversations, or recovering from infidelity, we can make progress.

I help couples figure out what’s really going on underneath the arguments. Together, we’ll slow things down, learn to communicate with clarity (not blame), and find your way back to mutual respect, closeness, and even joy. Yes, joy is still on the table.

Over the past 10+ years, I’ve worked with couples navigating:

• Infidelity and broken trust

• Anger management and aggression

• Divorce-related decisions and transitions

• Communication breakdowns

• Emotional distance or “roommate syndrome”

• High-conflict dynamics

• Power struggles and control issues

• Chronic resentment and blame cycles

• Emotional volatility and reactivity

• And other complex relationship struggles that keep couples stuck

My style is direct but compassionate. This isn’t a place to rehash every argument, it’s a place to actually move forward. I tailor sessions to your relationship’s unique challenges and strengths. You can expect honesty, structure, empathy, and occasionally a bad joke (therapist humor is real, sorry in advance).

While I also work with individuals and families, couples therapy is where I do my deepest work. I believe that when a relationship starts to heal, the ripple effects can transform entire lives.

If you’re ready to do the real work, I’m ready when you are.
