Guy Sartee

Guy Sartee is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing relationship and life changes. He focuses on problems like communication struggles, divorce and separation, grief, low self-esteem, and career shifts. Guy has worked with veterans and adults dealing with aging, family conflict, and attachment wounds. He uses a calm, straightforward style in sessions. Conversations focus on what matters now - improving communication, sorting feelings, and making choices that fit your life. He listens closely and helps you map practical next steps you can try between sessions. Guy brings 35 years of clinical experience in California and Ohio to his work. That background informs how he supports people through midlife transitions, complicated grief, and family-of-origin issues. He also addresses problems tied to infidelity, abandonment, and domestic violence when they affect an individual's wellbeing. His approach draws on several therapy methods to fit each person’s needs. Sessions may include relationship-focused exercises, exploring personal values and meaning, and short-term problem solving to build momentum. The focus is on clear goals and steady progress rather than vague theory. People who choose him can expect direct conversation, practical suggestions, and steady attention to emotional patterns and life decisions. He aims to help clients rebuild confidence, improve connections, and find clearer direction after loss or change.

Therapeutic approaches for online relationship and life work

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person's experience and values. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is heard, and helps people find their own solutions; it suits clients who want a collaborative, acceptance-based space to sort feelings and choices.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility, and life direction. It helps when major changes or losses prompt questions about purpose, identity, or next steps. This approach is useful for people facing midlife shifts, career changes, or grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist discusses your needs, goals, and preferences and then recommends methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as you learn what helps most.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm available session options before booking since formats are not listed in the profile. Online work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins during busy days, and remove travel time so therapy fits into weekly life. It can also let a therapist use specific relationship tools and exercises that translate well to virtual sessions. Talk with the therapist about how to shape sessions so they suit your routine and goals.
