Ryan Wishart LMFT couples therapist and executive coach Charlotte NC

You're successful. You're capable. And you're used to handling things yourself. But whatever brought you here — the disconnect in your relationship, the burnout you can't shake, the sense that something is off despite doing everything right — isn't going to resolve on its own. We work with couples and professionals who want a therapist who is direct, engaged, and ready to help them build something better — more clarity, stronger relationships, and a life that actually feels as good as it looks.

Individual therapy icon Wishart Counseling Group Charlotte

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Evidence-based therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, men's issues, addiction and recovery, life transitions, and relationship difficulties. Our approach is warm, direct, and practical — focused on real change, not just talking about it.

EXECUTIVE COACHING

Coaching for leaders, professionals, and entrepreneurs who want to perform at their best without sacrificing their health or relationships. Our unique background as licensed therapists means we understand the whole person — not just the job title.

ABOUT

ABOUT THE PRACTICE

OUR APPROACH

We combine evidence-based methods with a warm, direct therapeutic style. Our practice is built on the Gottman Method for couples, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and relational approaches. We believe therapy should be practical, collaborative, and focused on real results —most of the men I work with walk in skeptical of therapy. Many have tried it before and found it passive or unfocused. What keeps them coming back is that I'm direct, I push when it matters, and they leave each session with something they can actually use.
