BRIAN RZEPCZYNSKI, MSW
The Gay Love Coach
What I Do:
I’m the guy to call when your love-life and relationships need a boost!
I work with gay men who are ready to create a road map that will lead them to
find and build a lasting partnership with Mr. Right. Through my international
coaching programs and classes offered through my business, The Gay Love Coach:
Man 4 Man Coaching Services, single and coupled gay men learn new skills and
strategies for improving their dating lives and relationships. I also run a private
therapy practice in Illinois providing counseling services to children, adolescents,
and adults on a wide variety of mental health and personal growth issues.
My Mission:
Historically, there have been minimal resources available to the gay community
that affirmed positive and healthy relationships. Predominantly due to homophobia
and a lack of visible role models, we were never really taught how to best manage
our singlehood as gay men, let alone how to effectively date and maintain long-term
intimate relationships. Gay relationships CAN and DO thrive, and it’s
my mission at The Gay Love to provide a central hub and interactive community
for gay men seeking information and support for more efficiently navigating
their single/dating lives and relationships.
Professional:
I graduated from Western Michigan University in 1992 with a Master’s Degree
in Social Work. Since then, I worked in various outpatient mental health centers
providing therapy to all ages and populations and founded my private psychotherapy
practice, Personal Victory Counseling, Inc., in 1999. I am a licensed clinical
social worker and certified alcohol and drug counselor in the State of Illinois.
I expanded my services to include life coaching and received my Certified Life
Coach credential from The Coach Training Alliance in 2003. And that’s when
The Gay Love Coach: Man 4 Man Coaching Services was born to address the dating
and relationship needs of the gay male community. I hold certification through
The Chicago Training Collaborative in clinical practice with LGBT individuals
and their families and am also a member of the International Association of Coaches,
Coachville, and am a Licensed Relationship Coach through The Relationship Coaching
Institute since 2004. Finally, I co-authored the 2005 self-help book “A
Guide to Getting It: Purpose & Passion, my first published book
and hopefully the beginning of many more to come!
Personal:
I live in the Chicago suburbs of Illinois with my life partner of seven years,
Scott. I’m the proud uncle of two fabulous nieces (if I do say so myself!),
am a HUGE fan of my family and friends, and am totally into swimming, acting
in theatre, the beach, and writing when I can tear myself away from my work!
Coaching Style:
I’ve been told by clients that they immediately feel comfortable upon meeting
me, feeling the unconditional acceptance and support from the get-go. I’m
very passionate and ambitious about my work and coach with a good balance between
playfulness (I love to laugh with my clients!) and being solution-focused and
goal-driven, working together as a team. And while my coaching business and niche
is targeted toward gay men, I work with all singles and couples who have the
motivation and drive to create change in their lives.
