Saralee Kramer Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I value loving marriage as a challenging and satisfying personal growth path. I also believe raising children is important and a challenge. Parents need a strong relationship for themselves and their children.
And it's a joy for me help women find their forever person. I work with them through their dating process to assess possible partners, and choose a good person. I teach tools like the Myers Briggs Personality Indicator, Attachment style assessment, and Effective Communication Skills to help them strengthen their relationship toolkit.
With my married couples, I help them develop communication and intimacy skills within their marriage to create the positive relationship that will thrive in our current culture and last forever.

Chloe Lankshear
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
I've been married for 20 years and I think it's very easy over a long period of time to fall into the habit of not speaking very respectfully to one another and not showing a great deal of curiosity for the other partner's inner world. My work with couples uses the Gottman Method primarily and focuses on teaching you better communication skills, empathy and understanding and different tools for how to problem solve and compromise. Another thing I do a lot with couples is help you identify what your dynamics/patterns are so we can look at how you can avoid going around the same old negative and unhelpful cycles again and again. Instead, you can recognize what's happening and do something different in the hope of creating a more helpful and productive dynamic. This takes work and commitment, but it can be done!

We are a social species. We need human connection. Healthy human connection. Relationships can be a place to foster growth as individuals and as a unit.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
Our training with Relational: Couples/Partners/Family/Chosen Family... work includes Nonviolent Communication, Neurodevelopmental Models, Real Life Therapy, Compassionate Mediation, Convergent Facilitation, Polyvagal Theory, Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems and Intimacy from the Inside Out work, Neurodiversity Training...among other trainings. Partners/Couples/Chosen Family work can range from addressing a topical issue to growing and developing capacity with deeper connection. Sometimes the care is in supporting folks to identify differing neurobiological baselines and functionality that allows for better acceptance and creative teamwork. We may even draw from sidereal astrology and archetypal work to find creative options. (Statement of care: Sometimes, not always!!!! (the sad truth is) people have transactional or fantasy based relationships and they don't want to admit that that is what the setup is by one or both people, and without shame if folks in these situations can admit that, then there is generally less stress to make a relationship behave as something it isn't setup to be -- said with care. Often this needs to be addressed before progress can be made.) Sessions are typically 2 hours long and address issues efficiently, often individual sessions are woven in for both/all participants. Please feel free to inquire about scheduling a first session.

Kristina Anzell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CPSC
66% of couples see a decrease in the relationship satisfaction after the baby arrives, so you are not alone, you are actually in the majority! There are so many shifts and changes to your lives that you can look at your partner and not really know who they are, or notice that you haven't actually talked about anything but baby in months. You notice that you are fighting more and having less fun together. It is starting to feel a little off, but you still love each other and want to find a way back to each other. I can help you do that!

Dr. Lois Nightingale
Psychologist, MA, Ph.D.
I have been working with couples in therapy for over 30 years. I have written a book, "It's a Bedroom, not a Boardroom," on process communication rather than competitive styles of communicating. I often work with couples who own businesses together and are outcome driven. I work to improve their communication and compassion in the relationship. I work with couples who are facing resentments and betrayals as well as with couples who wish to improve their communication skills and develop compassion for each other.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Before, during, after a marriage. What couple doesn't benefit from a little tune up now and again? Is it communication? How can we express ourselves authentically without letting our trauma get in the way? Are we actually listening? Communication is a set of skills that can be learned, honed, and practiced over time. It is not the magic cure to all that ails, but it is a helpful first step. When a couple is able to communicate effectively they are able to deepen their exploration of each other and start to connect and heal in meaningful ways.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
While I do not offer couples counseling, I do a lot of work with individuals around communication and boundaries. This includes being aware of your own needs and coming up with healthy ways to express your needs while also tracking the needs of others. Remember, boundaries are not there to harm others but are there to protect you.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
The greatest factor in the quality of your life is the quality of your relationships. When love breaks down, everything else feels shaky. The distance grows, conversations turn tense or quiet, and what once felt natural starts to feel like work. You may be stuck in cycles of arguing, avoidance, or wondering if trust can ever be restored.
At Rising Calm Center, we believe every couple can learn to love more deeply—with honesty, empathy, and grace. Our Christian counselors help you heal from the past, understand the present, and build a future marked by peace, purpose, and partnership.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We blend faith-based wisdom with proven relationship methods—Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), family systems work, and communication coaching—to help you:
• Rebuild trust after conflict or betrayal
• Communicate clearly without criticism or withdrawal
• Heal old wounds that fuel anger, shame, or fear
• Strengthen friendship, intimacy, and shared spiritual connection
• Experience genuine joy and unity that lasts
Every conversation is grounded in empathy and truth. We help you slow down, listen well, and rediscover each other through the lens of grace.
Whether you’re newly married or years into a challenging season, there is hope. You can restore what’s been lost and create something stronger than before.
At Rising Calm Center, we help couples reconnect with purpose, love with courage, and grow together in Christ-centered peace.
Hope and healing can begin today—call or email for your FREE CONSULTATION.

Using evidence-based approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help couples identify unhealthy patterns, improve communication, rebuild trust, and deepen emotional connection.
