I help with understanding and navigating conflict, learning how to reconnect after disconnection, betrayals and repairs, issues coming up around commitment, and resolving historical anger, among many other issues.

Mark Pechovnik

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Relationship problems often stem from unrealistic expectations about what our partners are meant to do for us. Therapy helps transform expectation into appreciation. In the end, our romantic relationships can be wonderful and deeply intimate friendships of mutual support and care.

Casey Campbell, LPC (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Studying relationships and how to help couples repair and build satisfying partnerships is one of my current passions. When working with couples I help them identify past resentments and current problematic behaviors that damage the relationship. I then help couples process those resentments and facilitate behavior change in session.

Jason Schaefer (he/him)

Professional Counselor Associate

Has your relationship become dissatisfying? Are you wondering if this is all there is? Do you want your relationship to be a sanctuary, but don’t feel the necessary trust? Relationships are the yoga of the soul. No two relationships are alike and each one is packed with the specific emotional and soul work needed from the two participants in the relationship. Relationship therapy can help you unpack that work and help you learn how to relate from your authentic self.

Dasia Star (she/they)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

Master of Arts in Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy

When stuck in a challenging pattern of conflict, it can be hard to maintain hope. I am passionate about supporting monogamous and ethically non-monogamous partners in rediscovering connection, trust, communication, and care. Let's together cultivate compassion for the places you get stuck and learn new ways of relating that better serve your relationship. I truly believe that intimate relationships can be life-affirming and hope to help you foster more love and authenticity in your partnership.

Emily Ross-Johnson (she/her/hers)

Relationships of any kind take work. Communication and understanding are at the forefront of all successful relationships.

No matter your relationship structure or the kind of love you share, relational therapy is a space for two people to intentionally reshape their relationship through feeling emotion, expressing emotion, and attuning to emotion.

Sawyer Salameh (They/Them)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

I focus on addressing systemic struggles that encompass cultural influences, family dynamics, and interpersonal relationships. I view a couple as comprising three components: the two individuals and the relationship itself. My goal is to help you gain insight into your relationship, identify what is important to you, and determine what changes are needed. I work with each person to articulate their needs and desires, both for yourself and the partnership, facilitating clearer communication.

Guillaume Counseling Services (She/Her)

We specialize in relationship counseling, offering pre-marital and marital counseling, individual therapy/family addressing mental health and relationship issues, as well as couples therapy focusing on just the relationship.

Kelly Murray (She/Her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

In therapy, we may explore issues within your romantic/significant other relationship, friendships, family relationships, relationships with colleagues and bosses and/or childrearing. I often employ the lens of attachment theory when working with relationships.

Nani Waddoups (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Though it may seem like therapy cliche, exploration of our attachment style in our family of origin is critical in the illumination of adult relational patterns. How secure we are in the world of relationships is influenced by our earliest attachments. Are we trusting? Or are we in anticipation of a betrayal? Can we be authentic and transparent? Or do we fear abandonment and rejection?

Matthew Beeble (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Everyone needs others in their life, yet everyone is unique. This can contribute to conflict and other difficulties. These difficulties can be most pronounced in romantic relationships and it's easy for bad habits of communication to lead to deep hurt. I want to help you understand your role in these dynamics in order to increase your ability to have successful and resilient bonds with others.

Katya Stark (She/They)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MS, NCC, LPC

I became interested in couples counseling after witnessing how unsatisfactory relationships negatively impact mental health and ultimately reduce the quality of life. Almost every client who seeks counseling for anxiety and depression typically feels unsafe or insecure in their relationships; or, has had difficulty finding partners to meet their needs and accept them for who they are. I have completed Level 1 of Imago Relationship Therapy clinical training.

Ladan Radafshar (She/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC, NCC

Using Emotionally Focused Therapy, we will explore places where you both feel stuck, and bring awareness to the negative relational cycle unique to every couple. We will understand and resolve unhelpful communication patterns while deepening the quality of your communication and connection. Together we will explore intercultural dynamics, process emotional responses, and create a positive shift in your interpersonal interactions, moving toward a secure bond of trust and intimacy.

Steve Harper (He)

Professional Counselor

LPC, MCOUN, MED

We are all unique in gender expression, and also follow predictable evolved emotional patterns. Women and men can have similar needs while also perceiving and experiencing each other differently. We may desire acceptance, connection, and intimacy from others, as well as for our individual freedom, security, growth, and fulfillment. Improved communication begins with better connecting to ourselves.

Matia Kelly, MA, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

Couples choose to work with me for many reasons, but my approach particularly aligns with couples who have concerns related to failing to connect and/or understand your partner, navigating differing values, personalities and habits, two-career households, co-habitating, work/life balance, thinking about and/or making a long-term commitment, and life transitions such as the addition of a new child.

Jennie Towne

Licensed Professional Counselor

MEd, LPC, LMHC

Are you looking to create deeper connections in your relationships? Relationships can be challenging. Our desire for change is often only realized when we are already in pain. It can be difficult to admit we are struggling or unhappy. Through our work together, we will focus on healthy communication, setting boundaries, how to manage conflict, and create a deeper understanding of self.

Tori Morrison (she/they)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

MA, LMFT

As a marriage, couple, and family therapist, I believe relationships are central to our experience of the world. I also believe that we often aren't given the relational tools we need in order to thrive in all relationships. Relationship counseling can be a transformative experience that provides new ways of connecting to yourself and to your partner(s). I typically utilize emotionally focused therapy and experiential therapy when working with couples and relationships.

Terri Mishler, PsyD

Clinical Psychologist

When relationships become more difficult or unfulfilling, talking with a therapist can enable the couple to make changes. Improvement in communication and feeling connected to one another are reasonable goals for therapy.

Polly Gravely MS, LPC, MFT (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Nationally Certified Counselor

My foundation as a therapist is all relational. When we are stuck in ourselves, we are stuck in our relationships, and vice versa. I have a lot of specific trainings in couples work to help open up emotional dynamics so that places that feel tight, restricted and even hopeless can begin to open and change.

Conflict is an inevitable part of a loving, committed relationship. Sometimes, we need help finding our way through the challenging times. Maybe you’re stuck in the same pattern and tired of feeling misunderstood and overwhelmed. You really want to cultivate a deeply loving and connected relationship. You care about your partner(s).

Brittany England

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT, MA in Counseling

Whatever the relationship issue is you are facing, we will work together to address the root causes of the pain. Since our past informs our future and issues with our family of origin often play out in our current relationships, we will identify and explore potential unresolved issues that are preventing you from having the relationship you desire so you can make changes that support your well-being and your ability to create healthy relationships. I work with individuals only, not couples.

Christopher Boothby (he/him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Relationship work involves unpacking unconscious internal responses to our partners, rooted in the relationships we witnessed in childhood. My work with relationships draws from my training in Hakomi, and specifically the approach of Rob Fisher, author of Experiential Psychotherapy With Couples, as well as models such as those of Harville Hendrix (Imago work) and John Gottman. I also conceptualize from the perspectives of Attachment Theory (Bowlby) and Internal Family Systems.

Lolo Halman (he/him)

Professional Counselor

M.A., Diploma of Process Work

I work with couples who are deeply invested in their relationship but find themselves caught in seemingly intractable conflict cycles. I support these couples to reconnect to their relationship purpose, build awareness of their triggers and how to de-escalate in moments of activation, interrupt unhelpful patterns, and realign towards a greater sense of unity as a couple.

Yael Kievsky (she/her/ella)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT

In my work with couples I draw directly from restorative and transformative justice, where I learned the values of radically shared wellness, a sense of wellbeing that is deeply accountable and co-constructed within each relationship (families, couples, polycules, etc). I have advanced training in EFT for working with couples, a compassionate and deeply effective attachment based approach for transforming relationship patterns.

Caitlin Beckwith-Ferguson (she/her)

You're both really motivated to make your relationship stronger and healthier. You need support in handling conflict and understanding one another. Many of us don't have good examples of how we'd like to relate to our partner and, with help, it's possible to build the relationship you deserve.

Katie Eichner (she/they)

Clinical Psychologist

Ph.D

Humans need each other, and can also cause one another immense amounts of pain. We may use the therapeutic relationship as a place to explore relational patterns, practice new ways of being, and strengthen the capacity for intimacy and ability to navigate conflict. We may also explore how past relationships, starting in childhood, can affect current patterns and how to heal attachment wounds to promote deeper and more joyful connections with others.

Sarah Howeth (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT

The heart of what I do is support couples and relationships in our community. You may be feeling lonely, stuck, hopeless, frustrated or misunderstood. You love and care about each other, but lately it has been feeling hard to connect. You want the sweet, easy connection and intimacy that you had earlier in your relationship, and mostly just long to feel deeply seen, heard and understood.

Kelle DeBruin (she/her/hers)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT, Supervisor

Counseling is an important part of both pre-marital and marriage counseling as it enforces healthy communication patterns and emotional connection with each other. As these understandings becomes more clear for the couple, areas of emotional connection, mutual respect, commitment and desire for each other continue to develop and become meaningful aspects in the relationship.

Jess Fox (she/they)

Michael Morales (he/his)

Working with couples, especially in moments when everything is hitting the fan, is when I most come alive in this work. It allows me to bring all of my previous professional experience to the forefront.

It’s where I do my best work.

"The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances; if there is any reaction, both are transformed." -Carl Jung Opening yourself up to another person and developing true intimacy can be the most enriching experience imaginable. But so much can get in the way. Choosing the wrong partners, anxieties about getting close to the right ones, and being haunted by past relationship failures can scuttle your ability to make a satisfying and sustained connection.

Supporting you in fostering healthy and happy relationships, be that individually, couple, ethically non-monogamous, or polyamory, is my bread and butter. I believe in dependency and individualism in relationships. Many people do not like the word dependent, defined as "a person who relies on another." But what is a relationship? It is "the way in which people are connected." Connection and trust are the cornerstone of this. You must have both and it is my pleasure to help you find them.

Relationships hold our greatest learnings and help us to know ourselves more fully. Through them we get to experience love, joy, excitement, but also pain, conflict, and confusion.

We ask a lot of our partnerships and it is easy to get stuck in conflict cycles, harbor resentment, and lose connection, joy and passion. An outside professional can make a world of difference. I draw on Emotionally Focused Therapy, psycho-dynamic techniques, and Gottman, to help people have better relationships. I've worked with couples in conflict, navigating sexual mismatch, and separation and divorce.

You have the ability to build and maintain intimacy and you can improve your skills with practice (I give homework!). Good therapy helps you understand what you and your partner are feeling and respond appropriately.

Laney Kibel

My approach to couples counseling is a blend of Gestalt therapy and Emotionally Focused therapy. I listen with an open mind and heart and speak with compassion and understanding .

Izy Leighton (she/her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA

I have specialized training and experience working with intimate partnerships of all kinds. I approach relational work primarily through a culturally-responsive application of Emotionally Focused Therapy, which helps partners turn toward one another with vulnerability and authenticity and deepen their emotional bond. I welcome integration of sex therapy within relational work, recognizing sex as an important part of many relationships that can become loaded with complication and challenge.

Gemma Baumer (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A. in Counseling

There is no guidebook for being in relationship. We are often confused by the culture we live in which promotes the romanticization of beginnings, and the notion that another could meet our every need. This can be a recipe for disappointment, because relationships take continuous work and tending. Relationships are deeply activating for us as humans because our most formative experiences occurred in our attachment relationships, where we were intrinsically motivated to meet our needs to survive.

Dr. Kimberly Christensen

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

PHD, LMFT

My couples work is enhanced by Emotion-Focused Therapy which informs a highly integrated and healing-focused approach to my clients. Through this approach, we work to strengthen your inner voice, which cultivates a healthier voice in your relationships. Fostering communication is a primary focus for couples looking to heal difficult patterns and addictive behaviors.

Madeline Fox

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

We want freedom and intimacy. We want to feel like we’re at home and at the same time we want spontaneity. We want the security of deeply knowing someone but we’re afraid to let that person in. We seek everything from one person that a whole village used to provide. There are plenty of reasons why you might be feeling unsatisfied or hurt or betrayed or all of the of the above in your relationship.

Caitlin Truitt (she/her/hers)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LICSW

Past harm/trauma can cause us to operate off of relationship templates we learned from those who harmed us. We can get stuck in these patterns, often not understanding why. Other times, recent trauma can turn the relational equilibrium upside down. When one partner is struggling with the effects of PTSD, the other may have trouble adjusting or knowing how to respond. I work with trauma survivors and partners of trauma survivors to navigate these challenges and strengthen their relationships.

Sunya Grantham

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

I approach this work by identifying patterns of interaction couples find themselves stuck in. Work includes focusing on understanding the needs of the other and learning to appreciate differences. Work around infidelity consists of determining relationship commitment, examining the dynamics of the relationship before the affair, and rebuilding the trust of the hurt partner.

Michelle Anderson (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

I love working with queer couples and relationships. I work within an emotionally focused framework, meaning connecting via our feelings is the key to gaining closeness and healing attachment wounds. We may also delve into how each person's "protective parts" and unconscious messaging received in childhood are contributing to an unwanted relationship cycle.

Greta Reitinger (She/Her/Hers)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

Whether starting a new friendship or in the 40th year of marriage, relationships can rock us to the core. We are often driven by early attachment wounds, fears and needs. Wired for connection, we find fulfillment and health through social connection - yes, that goes for introverts too. If you are struggling to connect, therapy can help.

Karel Chan

Licensed Professional Counselor

LMHC, LPC

How we learn to seek and then engage in relationships is formed in our earliest experiences with others: our families of origin, parents, caregivers. Whatever our environment tells us we need to do in order to be loved — even if it hurts or actually feels bad — we do. We will find and nourish those tender, scared, confused spots within you, so that you can embark on seeking relationships already feeling whole, ready to give and receive love courageously and open-heartedly.

Julia Chapman (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

I have experience working with couples on issues ranging from sexual and emotional intimacy to infidelity and life transitions.

Relationships are often hard, and yet they're also so often the core facets of our lives. Relational therapy is a great place to untwist what often feels like an unsolvable puzzle.

Utilizing Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, I work with adult families and couples in resolving various issues! EFT concentrates on strengthening trust and bond between partners, while looking at how individuals process their experiences, emotions, patterns of interaction, and attachment. The integration with the Gottman Method's practical tools and interventions allows us to explore together the "dance" of interactions and emotional attunement.

Our greatest vulnerabilities lie with our major relationships. My psychoanalytic approach to therapy is extremely well-suited to working with relationship, marriage, and family issues. I support clients in understanding relationship issues at the root and problem-solving in the present.

Lorraine Storm

Licensed Professional Counselor

Every relationship experiences ebbs and flows, and while some degree of conflict is normal, at times it can get to a point where it seems impossible to solve it on your own. This is where a couples therapist can help. As a trained marriage and family therapist, I will help you better understand one another and reconnect to the love and excitement that made you fall in love in the first place.

I have worked with couples that are non-monogamous or who are considering opening up.

Amanda Fitzpatrick (She/they)

Marriage and Family Therapist

LMFT

I believe that we are conceived in relationship and continue to move in, out, and through relationships our entire lives. These relationships teach us how to love, how to hurt, how to learn, how to exist in our bodies, how to judge and hold prejudice, how to forgive. I am a dedicated relationship counselor and have pursued specific additional training for working with neurodiverse, multicultural, and polyamorous relationships.

Leslie Yeargers (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LPC, LMFT, Certified Sex Informed Couples Counselor

Over time, we can lose the connection with our partner that brought us together in the first place. We become emotionally distant and out of touch with each other. By using emotion focused, non-violent communication, and integrative couples and sex therapy, I strive to help you strengthen your connection to each other and deepen your relationship.

Liz Ward (they/them)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

Relationships are hard! It is completely normal to have ebbs and flows in our relationships, especially if they are long-term. Just because it's normal to hit rough patches doesn't mean it's easy to navigate. I am here to help you navigate next steps in your relationship, whether that is making conscious and intentional efforts towards staying in your relationship, changing the agreements or structure of your relationship, or even if it means ending the relationship altogether.

Sophie Bloch Miller (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, MPH

I am a Certified Relational Life Therapy clinician. I work from this model as my foundation and encourage clients to become familiar with the work of Terry Real. We will look at your relationship(s) together, with curiosity and without judgment, to better understand the agonizing patterns that you find yourself in.

Carli Barnum (She/Her/Ella)

Elizabeth Ellisan (they/them)

Licensed Professional Counselor

I love working with couples navigating the ways their relationship is changing over time. It is my goal to provide a safe, compassionate, and open space for you and your partner to identify what is working in your relationship and what isn’t. Seeking couples counseling is an incredibly vulnerable process and I strive to create a space where you feel safe to explore the tender parts of a relationship you’ve been nurturing for a while with your favorite human.

Carrie Sturrock (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

Professional Counselor Associate

Relationships, whether a marriage or deep friendship, can be fundamental to our sense of security and safety in the world. When a relationship becomes challenging, it can feel frustrating and truly scary. Figuring out how to navigate relationship troubles by figuring out your own inner emotional map can help you regain a sense of balance.

Tracy Bryce Farmer (she/they)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, MFA, CADC

Relationships can be so tricky because the complex system of one person meets another complex system. Relationships offer the hope of feeling seen and understood. I can support your goals for increased connection along with the freedom to be yourself.

Kellie Collins, MS, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

I have worked with many couples of all orientations to learn now to communicate and build a better life together. Here are some topics I work with most often: Navigating the path to intimacy Effectively sharing and communicating emotions Creating romance between best friends Juggling career, children, and intimacy Being vulnerable Building and repairing the safety of trust

Tever Nickerson

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

When working with couples, I focus on the relational elements between partners. This is often where the most conflict exists and where people feel the most hurt and confusion. I help partners find comfort and acceptance in asking for what they really need from each other. Even if there is frequently anger or mistrust I work to decrease the emotional pain and increase understanding.

Hunter Vaughn (He/Him)

Clinical Psychologist

PsyD

My training allows me to work with couples using a variety of approaches including Dan Wile's work, Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, and Gottman's theories and techniques (though I'm not yet certified in EFT-C or Gottman therapy). Couples are unique, multifaceted, and complex, and I strive to help them understand and resolve their conflicts, needs, strengths, and relationship dynamics.

Clifford Henry (they/them)

Professional Counselor Associate

LPCA

I offer couples counseling to partners of all orientations & genders, understanding that relationships can be challenging & may require support to thrive. Using the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy, I help couples build strong foundations for communication and trust. I also incorporate attachment theory to explore how early experiences shape our relationship patterns. Together, we’ll establish firm ground rules, ensuring a safe space where everyone can feel heard and be vulnerable

Emily Smith (she/her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA

When our sense of communication and connection is “off” in our relationships, we can really suffer. I work from an Emotionally-Focused Therapy perspective with couples, and I help partners become aware of their relational patterns, provide space and guidance for processing conflict and emotional wounds, and help you lean into mutual vulnerability in order to strengthen attachment, love, and support within your relationship.

Brittney Dane (she/her/hers)

Qualified Mental Health Professional

QMHP

I work with couples to gain both insight and skills regarding patterns of conflict, and help them practice more life-giving patterns in their lives and relationships.

Naomi Painter (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

Relationships are hard. Even when things are outwardly going well, you may have a sense of dis-ease and doubt, or you may not be sure whether this is a healthy relationship. Talking with friends will only go so far. I can help you listen to yourself and elevate your partnership, even if your partner is not accompanying you.

Gillian Chachere

Qualified Mental Health Professional

I offer couples counseling to partners of all orientations and genders. Relationships are hard, and sometimes we need someone to help us hear and be heard. I establish firm ground rules and maintain them, making sure that everyone feels safe being vulnerable.

Sarah Lange (She/Her)

Eric Abelow Blakeley (he/him)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

Whether it be issues with friends, siblings, parents, children, or within any form of a "couple", navigating one's needs and boundaries within a relationship requires work. This work involves learning more deeply about the internal impressions left from your earliest relationships, the strengths and challenges surrounding those, and moving more into the present with the way you relate to yourself and others.

Meghan O'Connor (they/them/she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

MA, MFT

Has a previously fluid and easy connection dissolved into fighting, blaming, emotional disconnection, or indifference? Differences in values causing stress or resentment? Wanting to reestablish intimacy and closeness? I have specialized training to help couples and individuals break patterns that cause fighting, improve communication, and strengthen connection.

Malia Graves

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

The focus of my degree was in using systemic therapy, meaning I look at how our relationships function and effect us. The earliest relationships we have with our families are a blueprint for how we interact with the world, especially with our partner. If you're feeling disconnected, learning how to resolve conflict and communicate can revive the spark in your relationship!

Beverley Duke-Young (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

B.S, M.S.

As a student of Terry Real's Relational Living, I embrace the principals of building and practicing respectful relationships, which often is learning to improve communication skills. Learning what you grew up in from your own family of origin suggests where some of the unhealthier attitudes grew out of. What kind of relationship do you want to create? What would you like to change in how you show up in your relationship? How will you feel when these changes are made?

Tracey Hoffman (she/her)

Clinical Psychologist

Psy.D

Deborah Ranker (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Relationships can be very confusing. I can help you demystify the dynamics in your relationships and give you tools for building relationships with better boundaries, healthier communication, and more intimacy.

Lynn Emmons LCSW, LICSW, RN, CADCI (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, LICSW, RN, CADC1

Our connections to others are the greatest assets and challenges. Outside perspective and support can be really helpful to address relationship struggles. Communication glitches are a common problem. I utilize Non-violent communication skills, family systems, narrative and other models/theories very effectively with individuals, couples and families.

Jennie Hayes, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

From the second we're born, relationships challenge us at our deepest level. Safety, vulnerability, shame, betrayal, commitment: they hit on our greatest fears and meet our fundamental needs. It's a place where we can grow the most and the fastest. I love working with couples because it's all right there in the room, in the moment, to be explored and unpacked and learned from.

Richard Marshall

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

M.A., LMFT

My Masters level training focused on family systems theory as used in the treatment of a wide variety of family problems, including couple and marital conflict. I have used this training since 2013 to help couples resolve conflict and foster deeper connection and relational well-being. I commonly use Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Relational Life Therapy (RLT) when working with couples.

Julio Iñiguez (he/him)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT, CGACII, CADCI

I am trained as a Marriage Therapist and use a combination of Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, Gottman Method, and Sensorimotor Therapy to support couples in healing attachment injuries to develop a more attuned and satisfying relationship. Together we learn how to navigate conflict in a way that is productive and connecting rather than sweeping things under the rug and avoiding unspoken subjects. My goal is to help couples turn toward each other and develop trust and attunement.

Christine Bethel (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT

For me, relationships make the world go 'round! I am passionate about couples, helping them grow, heal, and feel fulfilled in the context of their relationships. My work includes: partners who are dating, newlyweds experiencing challenges, empty nesters spicing things up, partners wrestling with separation, married, unmarried, traditional and non-traditional relationships.

Annette Smith (she/her)

Taylor Kravitz (She/Her/Hers)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

I have extensive experience working with couples/partners to address relationship and marriage issues. I can help you and your partner(s) learn how to communicate in a way that feels more connecting, identify your strengths and appreciations for one another, find a way to balance both of your wants and needs, and feel more fulfilled in your relationship.

Chad Ernest, MS, LPC (He/him)

I have a lifetime of experience, both personal and professional, with helping couples work through relationship issues. Struggling with communication, thinking about divorce/breaking up, or just fighting a lot? I can help.

Jason Wilkinson (He/Him)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA, MDiv

My desire to see people living as their best selves has motivated me to gain the necessary skills to be a marriage and couples counselor. If you ever once thought or believed that you were your best self alongside of your partner or spouse, and you are curious if you can be that way again, then I have the training to help you grow in communication and compassion to help you find out.

Jeff Guenther (he/him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

I have a masters degree in marriage and family therapy. My training in couples counseling best fits couples that have been together a shorter time and would like to steer clear of repeating old unhealthy habits from past relationships. I see many couples that would like premarital counseling or couples that are newly married and experiencing some road bumps in their relationship.

Cat Bice (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, LICSW

I practice relationship counseling from an EFT model which works best when both partners are interested in participating in counseling. This approach focuses on exploring the emotions underlying our behavior and healing old hurts by creating opportunities for connection. The sessions help couples see and understand their hurtful patterns of interaction, then change this cycle as core emotions and needs are attended to.

Day Adams (he/him)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA

All relationships involve tension and conflict at times. The habits, expectations, and values we carry into our relationships impact how we're able to work together with the people we love. In talking about these different things we're carrying, and how we experience them with our partners, we open doors to being able to be in relationships in preferred ways.

Samantha Tracy (She/Her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

I will assist you in cultivating a sense of belonging both within and beyond our sessions, enabling you to nurture healthy relationships in your life. A firm relational bond between therapist and client can serve as a blueprint outside of therapy, supporting self-realization, growth, and constructive change. Together, we will address your relational concerns, establish healthy boundaries, and enhance your capacity to form and uphold gratifying, enduring relationships.

Pearl Waldorf

Licensed Professional Counselor

Sometimes working with an individual or group therapist to sort through our relationship issues can save our most tenuous connections. Rather than placing the pressure directly on relational struggles that are founded on insecure attachment strategies, why not make room for ourselves to discover our deeper solidity and bring this back into our connections.

Miranda Bayard-Clark, LPC (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Relationships can be hard, and just like owning a car, relationships need some regular maintenance to make sure it's running smoothly. Whether couples are healing from infidelity, adjusting to new roles as parents, or just coming in to improve communication, I support couples in their journey towards a deeper and more intimate understanding and connection. See my website for assessments offered.

Donna Prinzmetal (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

Struggles in relationships often have to do with individual stories and histories that are interfering in the present. Therapy can help couples find clarity when navigating an impasse, when trying to decide whether a relationship should continue, and can be effective when a relationship has lost its spark and there is a desire to enliven intimacy and connection.

Carewell Portland Carewell Portland/Julie Berman (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

Hate each other? Just friends without sex? Looking outside your relationship to get your needs me? Are you entitled to happiness? I believe you are. I can help you locate the problems, work on them and ask tough questions about your current relationship(s) so that you can find a solution. Stay or go? Work on it or not? I am also a member of SASH, The Society for the Advancement of Sexual Health.

Jackie Turner (she, her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA, Marriage & Family Therapist Associate

​In couples and relationship therapy, I will compassionately challenge you to identify and grow from your well-worn patterns and do the brave work of stepping into more authentic connection with your partner. Healing comes when it is meant to, and often when we least expect it. Sometimes we have to move through the muck and the messiness for awhile before we reach moments of breakthrough. I provide a safe and positive container for you to move through difficulty and into deeper relationship.

Natalie Thomas (She/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

QMHP

Marriage takes work. That’s one thing we know for certain. Learning to navigate another persons needs, emotions, the ways that they move through life and communicate can be really difficult. I believe that through solid communication, and staying firmly rooted in our sphere of control, healthy relationships will emerge. I work with couples, and individuals to navigate communication issues, and to shed light on individuals roles in the problems at hand.

Christina Dunning (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

Often times, coping skills that were helpful earlier in life become patterned ways of relating. While these can continue to serve us in certain situations, they can also get in the way of connecting meaningfully or can lead to conflict with those we love. In counseling, we can explore those patterns together and develop and practice new ways of relating and connecting.

Kevin Lang (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

I have completed the ICEEFT externship for Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT). I am qualified to state I am an EFT trained therapist.

Gayle Waitches

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, NCC

The quality of our relationships, particularly our intimate ones, is vital to our sense of life satisfaction. We need to feel connected, seen, loved and chosen. But relationships can also be challenging. Sometimes we rely on strategies that sabotage comforting connection. Creating a safe space to be vulnerable and unpack our protective and sensitive parts can allow for deeper intimacy.

Shawna Oliver, LCSW (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

It is important for couple to have a place where they can identify patterns that may be disruptive to the relationship. A place where positive both parties can be heard and communication can be strengthened.

PK Foss (She/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT

I work from the Gottman Method of couples therapy, which is research based and tested and considered by many in the field, the most effective roadmap for helping relationships to become stable and happy. I also use Brainspotting as part of a wrap around couples therapy, to help each person move through issues that keep the relationship stuck.

Ann DeWitt

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

I love working with couples, especially couples with children. We naturally shift between issues that come up in the marriage and issues that come up with the kids.

Alicia Turgesen (She/Her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

MA, LMFT

As a marriage and family therapist, I can't help but be curious about relationships. Friendships, romantic relationships, families, mentors, etc. So much of who we are is influenced by these connections, in both helpful and not-so-helpful ways. With that, it's nearly impossible not to bring stuff from previous relationships into current ones, and its often times the not-so-helpful stuff. I work with couples to sort through what's what and how to take the good and leave the rest.

Vinnie Gwozdz (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, CRC, MS

Relationships are hard. Relationships are also a fundamental part of being human.

Kathleen Thompson (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, CRC

I generally work with individuals, but what we talk about is their relationships. Like it or not how people related to us in our early life generally continues to impact our adult relating until we can recognize patterns & learn to manage the flood of emotions that can erupt when we are with the people you love most. Let's work together to repair old & more recent relationships.

Eric Nielson

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

A large part of my practice is working with couples. I think this work is particularly meaningful, as it gets to the heart of our ability to love and be loved. In my work with couples, I work primarily from a model called Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (often referred to simply as “EFT”). What I love about this model, simply put, is that it works. EFT has been well researched and has been demonstrated to be very effective with couples to facilitate lasting change.

Patrick Bluett (he/him)

Working from an attachment lens, I help my clients uncover the ways their behaviors impede their ability to connect deeply with others and practice secure ways to improve their loving relationships. I work with individuals and couples to improve communication, behaviors and loving practices to develop partnerships that serve each individual and bridge gaps in communication and physical intimacy.

Julia Perretta (She/Her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist trained in EFT and Gottman based approaches. I pull from theoretical paradigms such as IFS/IFIO (in training), attachment/interpersonal neurobiology, and somatic experiencing. Challenges with communication, trust, infidelity, connection, parenting/blended families, repair, and intimacy are often themes in my work with couples. I welcome couples in all phases of their relationship.

Ronald L Johnson

I train both partners in meditation and mindfulness techniques so they learn to communicate without stress and use the relationship itself to enhance personal growth, awareness, and provide a lifelong spiritual path.

Francis Aurora Otto (they | she)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC, RSMT/E

Our current struggles are often rooted in our earliest attachment relationships. These early patterns live in our body, in how we perceive and interact. By attuning to these patterns in a collaborative and compassionate way, we can learn how to rewire them and discover renewed resilience and ease.

Shannon Rice (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

I am PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy) Level 1 certified which supports my understanding of early attachment wounds and how to help couples thrive. I provide an experiential space to try out new ways of communicating and understanding one another through an attachment-based lens. You can learn to understand your internal cues, your partner’s cues, and how to support each other's regulation.

Ashley Parkinson (she/her/hers)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, CADC-I

Our relationships are the heart and soul of our lives--they often are what makes us get out of bed in the morning, and what gives us reason to grow, learn, and become better people. When our relationships aren't working, or when they are abusive, destructive, or harmful, we have difficulty functioning well in other areas of our lives. I support my clients in working toward healthy relationships through identifying the longstanding patterns that have become unseen obstacles to change.

Evoke Therapy LLC (they, them)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA, MFT, RYT, RM

Relationships can come with struggles, whether that be in the area of communication, intimacy, and/or attachment issues. I utilize the Gottman Method to assist individuals and couples in navigating relationship challenges effectively. This evidence-based approach focuses on strengthening communication, fostering trust, and resolving conflicts constructively. I work with a diversity of relationship dynamics such as open relationships, kink, and non-traditional partnerships.

Guy Burstein (he/him)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

MSW, LCSW

I help couples identify negative emotional interactional styles rather than assigning blame. One safety has strengthened, the underlying emotions or hurt, anger, fear, and sadness emerge that allow couples to more deeply communicate while re-establishing trust. With trust strengthened, we can negotiate differences, heal past wounds, and let go of disconnecting beliefs and attitudes.

Holly Wigmore (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MS, NCC

Working with relationships is a unique opportunity to enter the venn diagram where the experiences of two individuals meet. I have experience in work with couples where trauma or mental health concerns are impacting relational function. I see relationship therapy as a unique opportunity to help improve how you function together and work to heal old attachment wounds. I utilize EFT and family systems frameworks to increase your understanding of one another and your emotional experiences.

Griffin Smith (She/Her)

Professional Counselor Associate

MS., NCC

Navigating the rollercoaster of relationships isn't just my job—it's been a big part of my life and my journey too (it turns out I'm a human who also has experienced relationship woes!) I've ridden the waves of love alongside my clients and continue to do so in my own personal experiences. In grad school, I primarily studied relational systems and made my focus couples' dynamics. I've worked extensively with couples in my practice and have also done couples specific training.

Family Ties Counseling Center

Licensed Professional Counselor

Relationship Counseling becomes a safe place where both you and your partner(s) can find and rest in the deeper connection of the love you all share. Healthy committed relationships are about balancing connection & intimacy with independence & autonomy. Ideally, each influences and helps the other. Relationship therapy helps to achieve this balance in your relationship.

Gina DeLeo (she/her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

M.A.

As a marriage, couple, and family therapist, I believe relationships are central to our experience of the world. I also believe that we often aren't given the relational tools we need in order to thrive in all relationships. Relationship counseling can be a transformative experience that provides new ways of connecting to yourself and to your partner(s). I typically utilize emotionally focused therapy and experiential therapy when working with couples and relationships.

Jesse Cetz (he/him)

Student Counselor

I specialize in relationship counseling as a master's candidate in a marriage, couple and family counseling program. I have taken a week-long training (Externship) in Emotionally Focused Therapy to gain skills with how to help facilitate meaningful conversation between parters.

Cat Bice (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, LICSW

I offer both discernment counseling and relationship counseling to couples that I work with, but which format we use depends on where the relationship is and what it needs. Discernment counseling is for couples "on the brink" of separation or divorce. They are neither committed to ending the relationship nor are they both committed to change. The format is 1-5 sessions with a focus on clarifying the dynamics between them, what would need to change and whether they are willing to do that work.

Camillia de la Garza Thompson (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC, CMA

Relationships are the foundation of life. Quite literally. They are also where our greatest struggles arise, even in chosen relationships. This complexity can sometimes overwhelm and confuse us, while enticing us to lean into old patterns. You have stories. And they are welcome here... without taking over. Through an exploration of present and past experiences, I make use of experiential modalities to create new experiences that allow for an expanded sense of what is possible in relationship.

Leigh Varley (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

I combine the Gottman Method and attachment theory to help you strengthen your relationship. The Gottman Method offers practical tools to improve communication and manage conflict, while attachment theory helps us understand how your emotional needs and past experiences impact your relationship. Together, these approaches create a safe space for you and your partner to express emotions, resolve issues, and build a deeper, more lasting connection.

Vedalia Zellers (she/they)

Clinical Social Work Associate

MSW, CSWA

Therapy is all about relationships, including your relationship to yourself, others, and any communities of which you are a part. Often, people's experiences of being hurt by others in past relationships interrupts their ability to form new connections that feel safe, joyful, and fulfilling. In therapy, we can work toward a deeper healing that paves the way for deeper connection.

Brad Poser, MS, CRC

I have a focus on Non-Monogamous or open relationships. These partnerships can be difficult to navigate. Despite intentions, jealousy, fear and difficulties with self worth can easily be present. Often, understanding support can be difficult to find.

Su Yim, MSW, LCSW (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

As humans, we are wired to connect. When our connections confuse or hurt us, we suffer. But it doesn't have to end there. By learning our individual and relationship patterns, we can turn our hurt into a chance for even deeper, more resilient relationships. Through emotion-focused therapy, we can learn to change the dynamics between us without assigning blame or stonewalling.

Arah Erickson (she/her/hers)

Professional Counselor Associate

MS, NCC, LPC-A

I work with individuals who are struggling in some way in their current relationship. In these struggles we often find ourselves in a rut of thinking and a rut of communicating. In therapy my hope is to provide you a safe and non-judgmental space to connect to your own values, emotions and desires to help you gain more insight into your authentic path both in this relationship and in life.
