Dr. Munazza Abraham
Psychologist, PhD
In work with individuals and couples, I focus on communication patterns, attachment dynamics, and relational wounds that influence present-day conflict. Using structured skill-building and insight-oriented exploration, partners learn how to respond rather than react. My approach balances accountability, empathy, and emotional safety to strengthen connection and repair trust.

Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
As a relationship therapist, I firmly believe that close partnerships are where the most deep beautiful healing can occur AND a place where we can also get very, very hurt. I also believe strongly that so many relationships have the potential to thrive when given space, time, and a little little from a specialized professional. In my work with relationships, (both monogamous and non-monogamous), I work with clients to find their stuck spots - not just "that fight" that comes up all the time, but to the actual root cause of that fight in the first place (which is often not at all what we think it is). I guide folks through a series of education to help them understand the ways in which they are getting in their own way, followed by a series of interventions designed to help you grow in understanding of yourself and your partner(s) so that you can actually get past the blocks in your relationship, to place where you feel truly safe to be yourself. I have worked with couples/relationships that come to me for the "big things" like infidelity, life-altering decisions, and moving from monogamy to opening their relationship, as well as those who are in a good place and just looking to build better communication skills - all is welcome!
Starting therapy can be anxiety-provoking at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

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.

Pre-marital counseling can help to create the strong foundation you both deserve. Once in a relationship, difficulties can be addressed and specific behavioral changes along with emotional growth can turn a problematic relationship into what you both deserve.

Amanda Mason
Licensed Professional Counselor, LGPC, NCC
Relationships can be challenging, and when we feel disconnected from those closest to us, it can be especially painful. I work with couples that want to build or strengthen their connection and feel more secure in their relationships. I have additional training in Emotionally Focused Therapy, which is an evidence-based approach that is based on attachment theory. I can help you identify the negative cycles you get in as a couple and build new ways of communicating that trust and connection. I love to help couples become each other safe secure base and soft place to fall.

Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
Most couples don’t come to therapy because they’re broken — they come because something vital between them has gone quiet, sharp, or out of reach. Maybe you keep having the same argument that never resolves. Maybe there’s distance, resentment, or rupture. Maybe you love each other, but you’ve forgotten how to reach one another.
I help couples slow down the cycle, so we can hear what’s actually being said underneath the defensiveness, silence, or blame. My work is rooted in emotional attunement, honest communication, and the belief that conflict, when held skillfully, can become a doorway to deeper intimacy.
This is not about who’s right. It’s about what’s real — and how each of you learned to protect yourselves in ways that now get in the way of closeness. Together, we practice new ways of relating that create safety, connection, and clarity — even in the hard moments.
Whether you're rebuilding trust, navigating a major transition, or simply wanting to feel close again, this is a place where your relationship can breathe, grow, and be truly seen.

For many years, I have provided counseling for individuals, as well as for couples, groups and parents, who are experiencing relationship challenges. I have spoken on many media platforms and at weekend retreats about my groundbreaking observations of common intimacy patterns, e.g. "Clingers" and "Stingers". I have authored 4 books available on Amazon that provide In-depth explorations of these patterns and our potential to change them. I also offer regular free Zoom seminars where I often review these concepts. Please feel free to call for further information and/or a consultation: 301-229-8000.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I specialize in working with estranged families and have done this work for over 25 years, long before “estrangement” became a common term. I support adult children and parents who are navigating separation, cutoff, long‑standing disconnection, or early attempts at reconnection. Many families come to me unsure what is possible, what they want, or how to move forward without repeating old patterns or causing further harm. The families I work with are often thoughtful and self‑aware, but feel unsure how to apply that insight to such a painful, layered situation.
My approach draws on family systems therapy and is rooted in trauma‑informed care, relational repair, and deep respect for the complexity of family history. Sessions often explore what led to the estrangement, what may or may not be repairable, and what each person needs in order to feel emotionally safe. We look closely at communication patterns, boundaries, intergenerational trauma, and the roles each person has carried over time. When reconnection is desired, we move in careful, stepwise ways that are tolerable and sustainable for everyone involved.
I meet with adult children and parents, as well as estranged adult siblings who wish to participate together. This service is offered online for adults in PSYPACT states, including families who live in different states and want to meet together in a format that is emotionally safer and more feasible. My role is to offer structure, clarity, and close attention so the work does not move faster than anyone is ready for or stay stuck when more is possible.

What defines us more than our relationships? Nothing enriches our lives more than the people in them - and conversely, nothing can bring emotional pain quite like dysfunctional relationships. I am privileged to walk with my clients and help them navigate this most precious resource.

Monica Grey
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Relationship stress doesn't stay in the relationship — it follows you into your sleep, your work, and your sense of self. I work with individuals who are navigating relationship difficulties, communication breakdowns, or the emotional aftermath of conflict or disconnection. While I don't offer couples therapy, I help individuals understand their patterns in relationships, set clearer boundaries, and develop healthier ways of communicating. If relationship stress is also affecting your sleep or anxiety, we can address the full picture together.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships are central to knowing who we are and thus have an enormous impact on our mental health. We often downplay to ourselves that frequent or underlying problems in our relationships are "enough" to feel anxious, sad, or angry about. As a result we often misplace the source of distress solely upon personal failings. Much of my work focuses on helping you clarify what you want and need relationally, working out what is making it hard to communicate those wants and needs, and empowering you to try some new things with your loved ones.

Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC, Clinical Supervisor
Whether you're preparing for marriage, rebuilding after betrayal, or simply feeling more like roommates than partners, relationships can find their way back to connection — and I'm here to help. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), one of the most well-researched couples therapy models available, to help partners identify the painful cycles pulling them apart and move toward the safety and closeness they're longing for. From premarital counseling to betrayal trauma, I believe most relationships have more resilience than they appear to in their hardest moments.
