Ron Straayer is a dedicated Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who specializes in couple and relationship healing. He recognizes the courage it takes for individuals to seek help in improving their relationships, regardless of the challenges they face. Whether clients feel stuck in persistent patterns, are navigating transitions, or are struggling to re-establish connection, working with Ron—a caring and objective professional—can lead them toward the outcomes they desire. He views client work as a collaborative journey where clients invite him to join them in their healing process. Ron is committed to helping clients remove obstacles to find peace and balance while fostering a deep understanding of their unique stories and experiences. He employs diverse therapeutic approaches tailored to each client's individual needs rather than relying on a standard recipe. While Ron enjoys working with individuals and families, his passion lies particularly in couples therapy. He utilizes a model known as IFIO, which effectively guides couples from negative reactive patterns toward warm, engaged, and supportive intimacy. For individual and family therapy, he typically incorporates Internal Family Systems, providing a comprehensive framework for healing and growth.
