Remember when your marriage was a walk on the beach?
Let's get it back to where it began--
perhaps even better this time!
Richard Rupp, M.Div., MFT
As a relationship and marriage expert with twenty years of experience with couples and singles, I'd like to help you get your life on course to success. I work with individuals and couples of all ages and backgrounds, and have special expertise in helping men wth stress, relationship and sexual issues.
I've taught as an adjunct professor on Men and Psychotherapy at Fuller Theological Seminary, given radio interviews, and speak at marriage conferences, men's retreats and parenting workshops. My overseas work in the Philippines gives me personal insight into Asian culture, family life and multi-ethnic marriage issues. Here in Pasadena, I have supervised graduate students in marriage and family therapy, led men's therapy groups and drug and alcohol rehab groups.
My latest project is a Boys to Men rite of passage that initiates boys into a manhood of character, confidence and adventure.
My personal passions? My love for speaking and sailing led to my creation of WayPoint Sailing, a corporate teambuilding sailboat racing company in five locations in Southern California (www.waypointsailing.com) To help husbands put the passion back in their sexual and love life with their wives, I co-authored the book, What Wives Wish Their Husbands Knew about Sex: A Guide for Christian Men (Baker Books,2007), ranked #1 in Amazon Kindle edition for Sex and Romance.

Ever got off course in your life, relationships, and dreams?
Whether from your own mistakes or unexpected events, it can happen to anyone. Marriages that start off with hopes and smiles can end up drifting apart or shipwrecked on rocks. Careers and financial plans can also get off course.
If you are struggling in your relationships, marriage, personal life or career pursuits, therapy can offer you new insights and solutions to reach your goals. You may feel unsure about opening up your needs with a therapist, but your first phone call can put you at ease and help you decide how therapy can turn your life around. Call me and let's discuss your personal goals and needs.
Common issues that I address include:
•relationship problems that just don't go away, including distrust, anger and betrayal.
•unhappiness and depression from childhood memories and traumatic experiences.
•anxiety with decision-making, fears of making the "wrong" decision and perfectionism.
•self-doubts, fears, and regrets that keep you stuck.
It's time to get back on course to your life's dreams.
Don't let problems from your past or present continue to interfere with reaching the goals for your life and love. If your life or marriage is heading for the rocks, give me a call before it is too late. If you are single and want to prepare yourself for a successful future, therapy can help. Let's get your life on course to reaching your personal dreams.
