Grace Judd
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LAMFT
If you’ve found your way here, odds are something in your world might feel tangled, heavy, or out of alignment. You may love each other deeply and still feel stuck in painful patterns you can’t seem to escape. Maybe conversations escalate quickly, one of you shuts down while the other pursues, resentment keeps building, or trust has been damaged by repeated hurt, betrayal, or emotional disconnection. Over time, couples often begin feeling more like roommates, opponents, or strangers than partners.
Whatever brought you here, you’re not alone and you’re in the right place to begin healing. In couples counseling, you’ll find a space where your nervous system can exhale—where we can slow down, untangle patterns, heal emotional injuries, and strengthen the threads that create secure, meaningful relationships.
I specialize in helping couples slow down these negative cycles, rebuild emotional safety, strengthen communication, and reconnect beneath the conflict. My relationship counseling approach is attachment-based, trauma-informed, and grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Family Systems, and Gottman Method, helping partners move from blame and defensiveness toward understanding, responsiveness, and deeper connection.
Whether you’re navigating chronic conflict, intimacy issues, infidelity recovery, parenting stress, premarital concerns, or the impact of trauma on your relationship, couples therapy can become a space where both partners feel heard, understood, and supported.
I primarily work with couples and adults navigating relationship distress, attachment wounds, trauma, and emotional disconnection.
I currently have availability for in-person and online sessions and would love to connect. Together, we’ll work toward creating a relationship that feels safer, more connected, and more resilient.

Paul W Anderson, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed counseling psychologist, Licensed Addictions counselor, PsyPact
I meet clients with compassion and a skilled, experienced intellect focused on helping you find lasting solutions quickly. I provide a safe and understanding space free of judgement. I won't waste your time or money, but I also want to take the time in the first sessions to get to know you and your situation well enough so that when we begin to apply solutions, they are strategic, effective and bring you lasting relief from your pain and concerns.
I enjoy doing counseling. I've been in private practice as a licensed doctoral psychologist for many years. I also understand the therapy process from having used counseling for myself. Give me a call and let see if I am a good fit for you and the situation you want help with.

Jessica Lowrance
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Your personal narrative shapes your identity and how you experience the world. Bearing the weight of an untold, painful story can be agonizing, but by sharing it, we open the door to healing and deep connection. I work with adults and couples to explore how past experiences and attachment themes influence current relationships and your sense of self. If you feel trapped in a difficult chapter, you do not have to find your way out alone. We will work collaboratively in a supportive environment to rewrite your story and rediscover inner peace. Reach out. Show up. Feel better.

Joanna Rogers
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Navigating motherhood is a journey full of beautiful moments, but it can also come with its own set of challenges. As a therapist specializing in pregnancy, postpartum, and the transitions of motherhood, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for mothers to heal, grow, and rediscover themselves during this transformative time. I work with women dealing with anxiety, depression, birth trauma, pregnancy and postpartum challenges, self-esteem struggles and life transitions. I enjoy working women, especially moms, to empower them to feel more confident with their emotions and in themselves, overall.

Michael Sanchez
Counselor/Therapist, MS
I help people identify the hidden patterns, beliefs, and motivations that drive their decisions, especially the ones that feel out of character. Change can be difficult when you do not fully understand what is influencing you beneath the surface. If you find yourself reacting in ways that do not align with who you believe you are, I work with you to uncover the underlying causes and develop the skills needed to move forward with clarity and purpose.
