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.

Rachel J Fischer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
It can be hard to manage feelings that come up towards your partner, and you may find yourself feeling alone and unable to talk to others about your concerns. You may notice that you are attracted to similar types of partners, or that you have similar feelings/behaviors in relationships. Using an insight-oriented ("psychodynamic") and relational approach to therapy, I provide a warm and nonjudgmental space to explore your thoughts/feelings/experiences, and to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships so that you can embrace a more fulfilling life. Please note that I only meet one-on-one with individuals to talk about their relationship issues, and don't do couples therapy.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., LP. DBSM
Dr. Kessler helps couples improve their communication, resolve conflict, and build stronger relationships. With over 25 years of experience working with couples, he uses a variety of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and Gottman therapy. He can help couples with a variety of concerns related to communication issues, sexuality and intimacy, extended families, parenting and blended families.
The most effective way to help couples is to create a safe and supportive space where they can feel comfortable talking about their challenges, focusing on improving communication and understanding. Therapy will help couples to identify and address the underlying issues in their relationship, and develop the skills they need to communicate more effectively and resolve conflict.

Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
When conflict, emotional distance, or the “roommate phase” takes over, it can feel like the connection you once had is slipping away. In couples therapy, we use Emotionally Focused Therapy to identify the negative cycles keeping you stuck, uncover the underlying emotions and needs, and help you reach for each other in ways that rebuild safety, trust, and closeness—both emotionally and sexually. Whether you want to repair, deepen, or simply understand your patterns better, this is a collaborative space to create the kind of marriage or relationship that feels good again.

Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We specialize in relationship and marriage counseling for couples who feel stuck in recurring arguments, emotionally disconnected, or unsure how to communicate in ways that actually bring them closer. Many couples come to therapy because they love each other but feel caught in patterns of misunderstanding, defensiveness, or distance. Our approach helps partners understand the emotional cycles beneath the conflict, improve communication, and rebuild trust and connection. Using evidence-based, attachment-informed methods, we help couples move out of blame and into a deeper understanding of each other so they can feel like a team again and create a more secure, supportive relationship.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Gottman method couples therapy is based on decades of research and thousands of couples. My practice utilizes evidence-based Gottman structure and guidance alongside specialized training in sexuality and relational intimacy. The most common issue couples come to therapy for is to improve their communication. Gottman method therapy therapy not only helps couples improve communication, but shows them how to navigate conflict, rebuild trust, and address concerns related to sex, desire, intimacy, and emotional closeness. Sessions have an interactive therapist and are grounded in respect, inclusivity, and an understanding that every relationship has unique needs, values, and definitions of connection. Whether couples are working through intimacy challenges, life transitions, differing desires, or communication difficulties, therapy focuses on fostering deeper understanding, safety, and connection in all aspects of the relationship.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I completed advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. EFT can benefit couples who are struggling with conflict, distress, and poor communication and help improve emotion related problems and build connection. It can also help family members form more secure bonds with one another. EFT has also proven to be a powerful approach for couples dealing with infidelity or other more traumatic incidents, both recent and past and relies on the significance of secure attachment.

Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
By the time they show up in my virtual office, many neurodiverse couples have had previous couple therapy experiences that did not go well, and are feeling increasingly stuck and hopeless about reconnecting in their relationship. If you are navigating ADHD, Autism, OCD, or other forms of neurodivergence in your relationship, you need an experienced couple therapist with a profound understanding of both the strengths and challenges of having brain-based differences, and how these differences can impact communication, energy management, nervous system activation, intimacy, and more. I would love to help you chart a different path for your neurodiverse relationship that allows you to interact with greater ease and connect more authentically.

Kieri Olmstead
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Most couples come to therapy having the same fight on repeat without understanding what the fight is actually about. At Simple Empathy we get underneath the conflict to the attachment needs, the unspoken expectations and the relational patterns that are driving the dynamic. Using Gottman Method, EFT and Collaborative Language approaches, we help couples stop being adversaries and start being partners again — or make clear-eyed decisions about what comes next. Five consecutive years recognized as Kansas City's top couples therapist. This is the work I was built for.

Marc Feinberg
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
Strong relationships aren’t built on perfection — they’re built on honesty, grace, and growth. Marriage isn’t about finding someone who completes you, but walking beside someone who inspires you to become whole. Real love requires forgiveness, communication, and a shared commitment to healing, even when it’s hard. With faith as the foundation, couples can restore trust, deepen intimacy, and rediscover joy. Love isn’t just a feeling — it’s a daily choice to honor, listen, and grow together. When two hearts surrender pride and choose purpose, marriage becomes what God intended — a partnership of strength, unity, and unconditional love.
