Hey there, I'm Stephen

I’m the guy behind Husband Help Haven, and that’s me with my wife, Kalee. I am a Christian, I have 3 kids (currently 4, 7 and an adopted 20), I’ve been married for 9 years, and I’ve spent the past 10+ years on Husband Help Haven  doing everything I can to help men like you save their marriage.

I didn’t start out intending to coach men through their separations… In the beginning, this was a hobby site. After my parents divorce, I wanted to explore what I could do to safeguard my own impending marriage. Every now and then someone would reach out asking for help, but I mostly just offered these men a listening ear and an earnest suggestion here or there.

Eventually, I noticed (and men told me) what worked and what didn’t. My advice improved. More and more men began coming to me for help. When men followed my advice, they felt things change. I got very good at helping men find their confidence again, thus enabling them to effectively live out their commitment to their marriage with integrity and strength.

Fast forward to today. I have developed an entire strategic system to help men re-discover what it means to love when life gets hard. I have personally coached or otherwise assisted well over 1,000 men through separation, infidelity, divorce and everything in between.  Thousands men more have signed up for my courses, and tens of thousands have subscribed to receive my free email lessons to get marriage advice that is unlike anything else out there.

Why? Because my advice isn’t based on a textbook, a degree, or letters behind my name… Instead, it’s based on what I’ve learned walking with real men through real marriage crises, over and over and over again.
