Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Having worked with hundreds of couples over the last 40 years, I have developed a set of beliefs or ideas which, if adopted, help to ensure that a relationship will last. One of the most important is: Arguing helps nothing, so don't do it.
I like to say that I never met the person who started the fight! When two people argue, each of them believes that he or she is merely reacting to something the other one did or said. Neither one believes that they started the fight; but it started somehow, didn't it?
It is better to be close than it is to be “right.”
Blaming each other for the argument is counterproductive. So is trying to change the other person's opinion. Most couples who argue, argue about whose perception is "correct," whose way of doing something is the "right" way, and so on. The only possible outcome of these arguments is that someone will be "right" and someone will be "wrong." Do you know anyone who enjoys being wrong? Most people will fight tooth and nail to avoid being "wrong."
Commitment is the Foundation of the Therapy
Commitment implies that you are in the relationship "come Hell or high water," barring certain behaviors your partner might do such as having an affair (although I have seen a number of relationships recover from those, too). Unless each partner believes that the other one is committed, they will not feel safe to take risks in facing, addressing and working out the real, underlying issues that affect the relationship.

Johanna Isaacs
Psychologist, Psy.D., PsyPACT Participant
I work with couples to help improve their communication so that they can better understand one another and appreciate each other's strengths and weaknesses. My goal is to create a safe place where each person is heard and validated for who they are. We explore the value that the relationship provides to each person and work to strengthen the connection by creating behaviors that join each other together.

Teona Amble
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Do you feel stuck in your relationship? Are you trying to recovery from infidelity or a relationship crisis? Are you ready to improve your communication, conflict management, and trust? We can work together to evaluate your relationship's strengths and areas for growth. Then, we develop a plan for me to guide you with information and tools to survive relationship stress and thrive as a team; or to move forward separately as co-parents or friends. Whether you are beginning a new relationship, working on an existing one, or trying to end one which is no longer working, I am here to support your partner and you on the journey to change.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Relationships are some of the most rewarding parts of life—but they can also bring stress, frustration, and conflict. I specialize in helping couples and partners navigate challenges such as communication difficulties, trust issues, emotional disconnection, infidelity, and differing values or expectations.
In therapy, couples gain a safe, structured space to explore underlying dynamics, improve understanding, and develop skills for healthy communication and problem-solving. My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Family Systems Theory, helping partners identify negative interaction patterns, manage emotional reactivity, and create new ways of relating that foster connection, empathy, and mutual respect.
Whether you are looking to repair a struggling relationship, navigate major life transitions together, or strengthen an already healthy partnership, therapy focuses on both insight and action—teaching practical strategies that partners can implement in daily life. I also support blended families, co-parenting couples, and couples navigating significant stressors such as relocation, career changes, or family illness.
My goal is to help couples build resilience, deepen intimacy, and create a relationship foundation that is not only functional but also fulfilling.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
I help couples untangle repeating fights, attachment wounds, and faith/culture differences in a way that keeps both people seen. We’ll identify the protective patterns each partner brings in, improve communication, and rebuild trust or boundaries after injuries. My approach is LGBTQ+ affirming and trauma-informed, and I am comfortable working with couples navigating religious differences, sexuality/gender questions, and nontraditional family structures.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help couples strengthen their relationship by understanding the patterns that shape their interactions. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we slow the process, surface unspoken needs and stuck cycles, and practice clearer ways of speaking, listening, and repairing. The aim is durable change—less escalation, more choice and trust, and a relationship that feels steadier and more alive.

Craig Springer
Psychologist, PhD
I recognize how central relationships are to one’s health and well-being. I also understand how painful it can be when we have difficulties establishing or maintaining relationships or when we have difficulties in a particular relationship. The ability to maintain harmonious personal connections is not necessarily easy. Because of its inherent difficulty, many people encounter high levels of relational stress and may even experience a complete cut off from others.
The good news is that even though developing meaningful and healthy relationships requires a specific set of skills, which can be learned. Those who can improve their style of communication can bring about profound improvement in the level of closeness, support and satisfaction in their relationships and consequently experience greater happiness in their lives.
I can work with you to provide the tools necessary to improve communication and establish more intimate connections. I begin by examining your patterns of interactions to determine what is causing or maintaining your interpersonal conflicts or leaving you feeling detached. Next, I will guide you through practices that will teach you how to improve your relationship style and connections with others.

Troy Stone - Couples and Marriage Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Is your relationship a bit overwhelming? Are you and your partner struggling with emotional or physical intimacy? Are conversations all of a sudden difficult and when you do talk, do they escalate to arguments quickly? Or perhaps your relationship just ended and you want to make sense of it before you can move onto your next one?
If any of these sound familiar, the good news is there is hope. The truth is that most of us were not taught how to navigate a relationship successfully, so inevitably struggle. Through couples counseling you and your partner will find ways to connect emotionally, you will learn how to truly hear what your partner is saying, and learn how to express yourself in a clear manner for your partner.
If you are wondering when is the right time for couples therapy... the simple answer is "if you are part of a couple." Couples therapy is not only to fix problems, but to enhance the relationship and to learn more about our partner. If you are ready to take that step... I am ready to help.

Jamie Roach
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, MDiv, NCC
When couples feel stuck in repeated arguments, disconnection, or mistrust, it’s often because something deeper is longing to be seen. I help couples slow down, understand their patterns, and access the vulnerable emotions beneath the conflict. Together, we work toward rebuilding trust, emotional intimacy, and a secure base where both partners feel safe, valued, and understood.

Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
There are two niche areas I specialize in with couples: shared loss/trauma - primarily reproductive, and couples with substance use disorder in one or both partners. If you and your partner need help navigating your relationship, in the areas named here or just with feeling like you've grown apart emotionally or sexually, I can help. I am trained in evidence-based methods to re-structure old patterns or to help you navigate big life challenges in ways that respect you each individually while bringing you closer as a couple.

Grace Judd
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LAMFT
Many couples wait until they feel exhausted, disconnected, or hopeless before reaching out. Often, underneath the arguments are unmet needs, fears of rejection, loneliness, or old wounds that neither partner fully knows how to express. Therapy can help transform these painful cycles into moments of greater understanding, repair, and connection. Relationships are living systems—beautiful, complex tapestries woven from attachment, communication, shared meaning, and the stories we bring from our pasts. I specialize in helping couples repair ruptures, deepen emotional connection, and understand the patterns that keep them stuck. Using evidence-based approaches like EFT and Family Systems, and a deeply attuned, relational style, I help partners rebuild trust, navigate conflict, and create a secure bond rooted in empathy and partnership. Whether you’re healing from miscommunication, old wounds, parenting stress, or betrayal, I offer a steady, compassionate space where your relationship can grow stronger, safer, and more connected.

Relationships and couples/marriage counseling is one of the main reasons people seek therapy. Attachment research is clear about our need as human to connect with and have a loving relationship with another that is mutual and reciprocal.
