Kristin Wright
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Relationships can be hard, and they require work. Sometimes couples get off track and need a non-judgmental outside perspective to help them find their way back to each other. I have experience using the Gottman Method and strive to create open and productive communication in the relationship.

James Foley Sexual Misbehavior, Infidelity , Expert 26 Years Experience
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, SOTS,
Infidelity by a partner is caused by one persons issues, not the couples issues, and the distorted thinking and self destructive behavior by that one partner is corrected by fixing that one members distorted views, and thus eliminating that self destructive behavior from that person.
I am an absolute expert at correcting the distorted thoughts and perceptions that create infidelity. I have been doing it for 25 years, as part of my full time practice in one specific area, sexual misbehavior.
I have vast experience in both men who cheat in the classic find a unpaid partner, and I am also extensively experienced in cases where the man uses paid services to act out sexually.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Relationships are special and take considerable work. It doesn't matter if you are seeking a therapist to help you early in your relationship before "stuff happens" or are trying to back up and address longer standing patterns, I can help you be a strong "Us". When working with relationships we are going to talk about ways to make you a team and help you improve the ways you talk with each other to increase your understanding. The Gottman's talk about "Masters" and "Disasters" - I can help you be the former.

Dr. John VanderKaay & The Center for Mighty Marriages & Families
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, LMFT, BCPCC, BCPC
Marriage is the highest human relationship. It is arguably the hardest one to do well. We are intended to learn how to be married well by watching our dad and mom be married well. If we didn't see that, we must learn somewhere else.
I help couples build trust, have effective communication and conflict resolution skills, and get and stay emotionally attuned and connected to each other, regardless of what life throws at them.
