Stephanie Featherston
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Div, MS, EdS,LPC
Relationship is a core part of being human. When relationships are stressful, life can become overwhelming. Sometimes, the problem can be that we've gotten onto auto-pilot in our relationships. We can stop being curious and begin assuming we know what's happening with ourselves and the other. My goal in relationship or couple's counseling is to re-awaken curiosity and compassion as well as to create intention and mindfulness. I enjoy helping build communication skills as well as exploring the ways that each person's history influences how that person functions in relationship. Whether or not the relationship continues, my goal is for my clients to understand themselves and each other better and to be able to make informed decisions about the direction for themselves and their relationship.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I use the four (or more) session model for relationship counseling. For the first session I meet with all the partners to establish what issues brought them to counseling. Then in the second and third (or more) sessions I meet with each partner individually so that they can say things to me that they don't want to say in front of their partner(s) and then for the fourth session I meet with all the partners together to review what I have learned and lay out my proposed treatment moving forward. I have found this method to be very effective, especially when compared to strictly relationship sessions.

Joy Freilich
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC
Life can be hard. Sometimes we have difficulty communicating with our partner, boss, children, or our parents. Sometimes we have difficulty adjusting to a new environment or new life circumstances. At times, we may feel stuck and unsure of how to make changes in our lives. Other times we may want to delve deeper and truly understand our motivations and desires. Sometimes we just need to feel heard and understood. Having an unbiased, non judgmental person to talk to can help.
I really enjoy working with couples and families- helping people see things from another perspective and develop healthier ways to communicate with one another is a strength of mine. I have done extensive post graduate training in Marriage and Family Therapy at The Ackerman Institute for the Family, The Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy and The Link Counseling Center where I completed a 3 year residency.
