About Guy

Guy Sartee helps people facing relationship strain, family conflict, grief, and major life changes. He also supports those working on self-esteem, career decisions, and issues like abandonment or attachment concerns. Guy is a licensed marriage and family therapist with decades of experience and a practical, human-centered style.

He uses an existential outlook to help people find meaning in hard moments. That means he asks questions about values, purpose, and the choices someone wants to make.

Background and approach

Guy pairs this with client-centered listening so people feel heard before solutions are suggested. Therapy sessions are direct but respectful. He often blends psychodynamic ideas about how past relationships shape current patterns with solution-focused steps that aim for small, useful changes.

The Gottman Method informs work on communication for people handling infidelity, divorce, or ongoing conflict. Guy’s background spans 35 years of clinical work in California and Ohio. He has experience supporting veterans, people facing aging-related concerns, and those coping with domestic violence or eating-related issues.

That experience informs a steady, experienced presence in session. People who meet with him can expect practical conversation, gentle challenge, and collaborative planning. The goal is clearer choices, improved connection, and manageable steps forward.

Sessions are offered in English and adapt to each person’s pace and needs.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Guy integrates Existential Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online work. Existential Therapy focuses on questions of meaning, values, and choice to help people navigate life changes and crises. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience with empathic listening and reflection so clients feel understood before planning next steps.

He may also draw on the Gottman Method when relationship communication and repair are a priority. That approach teaches practical skills for listening, managing conflict, and rebuilding trust in partnerships. Together these methods give both reflective space and hands-on tools for relationships and life transitions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they’ll decide which methods to try and how to measure progress. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for deeper conversations, phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging helps those who prefer shorter, written exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and travel schedules.
