Anchor Ridge Counseling & Consulting

Anchor Ridge Counseling & Consulting Experienced faith-informed counseling for men & leaders. College Station, TX | Virtual across TX

I have been providing mental health counseling services in Bryan/College Station since 2017. My journey into the counseling profession was far from direct, but I believe the diversity of work and life experience I bring into my current work provides the perspective necessary to connect with my clients. I have a BBA in Management from Texas A&M (class of '03) and MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Sam Houston State University. My wife and I have lived in Bryan-College Station for nearly 20 years and we have three young children. I love outdoor adventures, cool weather (not sure how I landed on living in BCS!), serving as a small group leader in our church and running. Jared is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas ( #79580).

“There’s a difference between doing life next to people and doing life with them.”

This distinction comes up often in my work. I wrote about why it matters — and what helps move friendships deeper in adulthood.

Most men don’t want advice.

They want a place to exhale.

A place where they don’t have to impress, defend, or explain themselves.

Isolation keeps things stuck.

Presence changes people.

You can build a good life and still feel disconnected inside.

That doesn’t make you ungrateful.

It usually means something deeper is asking for attention.

Those rules kept you moving.

They just weren’t designed to help you feel.

Most men were trained to override discomfort, not understand it.

Ignoring it doesn’t make it disappear.

It just delays the cost.

A lot of men are capable, dependable, and strong.

And quietly alone.

Responsibility shrinks your world when there’s no place to put the weight down.

Strength was never meant to be a solo sport.
