In this episode of Private Practice Practically, Rich sits down with Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) Caleb Bryce to discuss couples therapy, ADHD in relationships, trauma work, and what it really takes to build a values-driven private practice.

Caleb shares how his background in psychology and ministry shaped his path into therapy, why couples make up a large part of his caseload, and how ADHD often becomes what he calls “the unwanted third wheel” in relationships. As a Certified ADHD Clinical Services Provider, he explains how executive functioning struggles fuel shame, anxiety, and disconnection—and how targeted interventions can help individuals and couples rebuild confidence and connection.

We also explore Caleb’s approach to therapy: collaborative, laid back, and guided by what he calls a “loose roadmap.” From Gottman training and Brainspotting for trauma to faith-integrated therapy (when clients want it), Caleb breaks down how he balances structure with flexibility—while giving clients authority in their own growth process.

Beyond the therapy room, Caleb opens up about stand-up comedy, fatherhood, faith, and why humor (used appropriately) can ease tension—even in tough sessions.

If you’re a clinician, someone navigating ADHD in your relationship, or simply curious about what collaborative, grounded therapy looks like, this episode delivers both heart and practical insight.
