Here is what I am all about...

Hey dates and couples - thanks for stopping by! I am Nick Junes, a psychotherapist, an entrepreneur, and dating consultant.

I have been in the mental health world as a licensed clinician providing therapy for several years. I leverage my tens of thousands of hours of relationship and individual counseling experience to help you as a dating coach!

Have you ever felt any of the following:

• Wondering why are there no good men or women in this town?
• Exhausted from navigating all the messaging and swiping on dating apps
  
• Can't figure out if there is something you are doing that is causing would be relationships to end prematurely
• Tired of being the only one at social events alone while everyone else is paired off with their partner
• Getting frustrated by being ghosted, people ending things with no explanation, or thinking it was going somewhere but it abruptly ends

If so, you are in the right place!

Whether you have been in the date-o-sphere a while, just getting started, or navigating a budding relationship I can definitely help.

Single, Frustrated, and Rock Bottom

I was always the one watching my friends and family have girlfriends, get engaged, get married, and start a family.

So many holidays showing up stag, weddings without a date, and trips with a single-room occupancy.

I endlessly swiped, was introduced to others, went out on dates, and was totally open-minded to meeting others but nothing ever seemed to click.

Or, if it did click, it was short-lived and somehow always ended up ending all too quickly.

I would ask friends what am I doing wrong? and started to really believe this whole relationship thing just wasn't going to work for me. I even considered becoming on monk!

Wake-up call in Dating

As a therapist and seminary graduate, I was always reflective and observant, BUT I finally started to study myself in the context of dating and relationships. I read tons of self-help books, did my own therapy, vented to friends and family, and finally started to realize the problem wasn't the place I was in or bad luck, it was that I...

Had no idea how to date

Had unrealistic expectations of the whole process

Was jumping into things OR writing others off way too fast

Did not know what I was actually looking for

Sucked at texting and messaging

Had a lot of things in my own personal life I needed to improve

Ultimately, did not understand that dating is a skill!

Onward and Upward

I am now happily married to an absolutely lovely and wonderful woman and have two dogs and a home.

Things changed when I actually started learning about good successful dating practices, reflected on all of my previous failed attempts, and looked in the mirror and took control of my life, thoughts, and attitude.

My Values

No Man is an Island

I firmly believe we are divinely designed to be relational creatures, existing in social environments that require connection, compassion, and cooperation with other people. We are created to thrive in and through relationships and we find our true meaning and purpose through sharing our life with others.

Relationships are as important to our health and wellbeing as the food we eat and the air we breathe. They create meaning and purpose for our lives and we are created by God not to exist alone.

My date coaching reflects the sanctity of loving, healthy, and life-giving relationships. My products and services are not designed or intended for you to learn pick-up lines, get laid, or gain some other ego-seeking reward. They are an offering for you to ultimately find a rewarding, loving, and long-lasting relationship.

Most of my material and coaching is designed for monogamous relationships. Embracing multiple relationships and partners is a condition that may negatively impact getting the results I have worked to help you achieve.
