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.

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
Relationships can be rich sources of both fulfillment and pain. Through relationships we are often confronted with our own earlier attachment wounding, which when unconscious, can lead to conflict and discord. In couples therapy I will help you and your partner feel safe and expand your capacity for intimacy. I will help you both understand and undo the unconscious patterns that keep your relationship stuck in a dance of distress and support you to establish and maintain a deep emotional connection and the ability to repair when inevitable conflicts occur.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships shape almost every part of our lives, which means they also have the power to cause the most stress—whether you’re navigating the dating world, struggling in a marriage, or recovering from infidelity.
It’s not just romantic bonds that can get messy; friction with family members, friendships, or toxic co-worker dynamics can take a massive toll on your peace of mind. Looking at things through a big-picture, we will untangle the communication blocks and boundary issues keeping you stuck, helping you build healthier connections across all areas of your life.

Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, MS HSc, MA, LMHC, LPC
NOTE: I do not accept insurance for couples counseling. Relationships can bring both joy and challenges, and patterns often develop that create conflict or disconnection. I help individuals and couples explore the underlying dynamics, emotions, and parts of themselves that show up in relationships. Together, we work to improve communication, build trust, and create deeper connections and understanding.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Welcome. When working with couples, adult family relationships, and friendships, I take an attachment approach. I want to get to know the stories of past and present relationships, relational patterns, stresses, dreams, and victories that are currently impacting your felt-sense of being known, safely, and fully in your relationship(s). I infuse the decades of research and communication templates of Gottman Method Couples Counseling with the tailored insight of Attachment Core Pattern Therapy. Together we'll discover what part of the relational conflict is really about the issue you're discussing, really about the person you're in conflict with, the deeper roots of pain that are being triggered, and how the relationship you're in can be a part of your healing the rooted relational injury.

Yukiko K Hartman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LPCC, LMHC
Why are relationships so sweet some time and so difficult other time? It's because we have emotional connection with our loved ones. In fact, building close relationship and maintaining it require a lot of awareness of what's happening in you and your partner, and between two of you. Also, knowing how to maintain emotional connection and how to repair the connection quickly when it's broken is the key for you to keep your important relationship going. In my therapy, we will look into your relationship to see what is not working and how it has affected you and your partner. I will introduce to you many elements of healthy relationship and have you learn new skills and behaviors. Relationship issues are often complicated and take time before you see the improvement. So, you may need to commit to therapy, but I believe it is worth your time and effort if you think your relationship is important for you.

Karina Baltazar-Durán LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I treat the couple and the family as a system. We are all interconnected and yet trying to find our space in said system. Family is at the root of who we are and sometimes those roots get tangled through generational patters or trauma leaving us to not be our best for ourselves or the other(s). Allow me to help you identity, sort through, and untangle those roots to get to who you really want to be.

David Oretsky Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a couples therapist my goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment for couples to explore their emotional patterns, understand their deeper needs, and find healthier ways to communicate. By delving into your emotional experiences and the patterns that may have led to disconnection or conflict, we can work together to shift these patterns towards creating a more secure, resilient, and loving bond.
Whether you're experiencing a relationship crisis, struggling with communication, or simply wishing to deepen your connection, I believe in your capacity to change and grow within your relationship. Together, we will strive to rekindle the emotional bond that brought you together, enabling a relationship that is fulfilling, supportive, and emotionally rich. Remember, it is never too late to heal, grow, and foster a thriving relationship with your partner.

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!

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I have over a decade of expertise in conceptualizing and treating struggling interpersonal and intimate relationships. Through a honed lens of social constructionism, I focus on understanding and meeting the unique needs, meanings, and values of each relationship. Every relationship is unlike any other. This stance promotes authentic curiosity and explores how we make meaning together. Meaning and action are closely interwoven in our relationships, and each member of the relational context influences the culture and landscape of the interpersonal experiences within. In therapy, we collaborate in creating a new way of relating that allows the rediscovery of empathy for each other in these contexts, and resolves troubling patterns of communication and differences in expectations that negatively impact understanding, connection, and value...
I believe relationships and context matter. Research shows that relationship distress causes problems in mental health, work, children, and even your own physical health. Yet, healthy relationships protect you from stress and help you thrive.
I believe in using relationship therapy that works. I practice evidence-based therapy, which means I use therapeutic practices that have been studied and supported by empirical research studies.
I work with clients to improve their interpersonal functioning both within relational contexts (i.e., couples, families), as well as with individuals who would like to focus on their past, present, and future interpersonal interactions. Clients explore the relational impacts of experiences such as rejection sensitivity, feelings of codependency, attachment concerns, life transitions, divorce, trust, shame, self-esteem, assertiveness, and the impact of dating in the digital-age (i.e., feeling ignored, insecure, ghosting, text communications).
Unfortunately, most people don't have access to effective help for their relationships nor have they been taught what healthy relationships and communication look like. Because of this, I also prioritize increasing access to couple therapy by offering telehealth, evening and weekend scheduling, and lower-cost options that are tailored to Client needs and resources.
I strive to understand your goals, help you communicate and form these goals explicitly, and reach them effectively. I have worked with couples, families, parents, Veterans, adolescents, and individuals on strengthening their relationships and interpersonal skills. I have expertise in working with LGBTQIA+ relationships, sex therapy, and increasing physical and emotional intimacy between partners who seek nonjudgmental therapeutic space and openness to non-traditional relationships (i.e., polyamory, open relationships, play partners, swingers, friends with benefits (FWBs), BDSM etc.). I work with couples/relationships and individuals addressing pornography consumption, kink, and all manner of consensual play. (See additional relational competencies in the ‘diversity’ sections and relationship based ‘services.’) I often employ a mixture of Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy and Emotion Focused Couples Therapy when working with intimate partners. I have an extensive background in Family Systems modalities as well, including Gottman Method, Structural Family Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Family Systems, and others.
There are several forms of relational therapy you can engage in:
Couple Therapy and Therapy with Romantic Partners
Family Therapy
Therapy for Friends or Coworkers
Relationship Therapy for Individuals (just you!)
Relationship Education
Relationship Coaching (for just you or you and your partner(s))
Premarital Coaching
