Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
Relationships can become stuck in painful cycles of conflict, disconnection, resentment, or miscommunication. Drawing from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and attachment-based approaches, I help couples better understand recurring patterns, strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and deepen emotional connection. Therapy offers a space to slow down, feel heard, and work toward a more secure and fulfilling relationship.

Zaray Dratch
Pre-Licensed Professional, MFT-LP
Most couples wait too long. By the time they get to therapy, the distance has been building for years, the same fights have cycled through hundreds of times, and at least one person has started to wonder if anything can actually change. If that's where you are, you're not too late, but you don't have to keep waiting either.
Relationship and marriage counseling here isn't about keeping score or figuring out who's right. It's about understanding the patterns that keep pulling you both back to the same place, and building something different. That might mean learning how to fight better, how to repair after rupture, how to talk about the things you've been avoiding, or how to reconnect physically and emotionally after a long drift.
Some couples come in crisis. Some come because they want to get ahead of the slow erosion before it becomes something harder to fix. Both are valid reasons to be here. What matters is that you're both willing to look honestly at what's happening and do something about it.

Sexual Recovery Coach
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CST, CADC-III, CTA-CC
Sexual issues can cause profound problems for both parties in a relationship. This is particularly true if there has been a discovery of secrets or betrayal. There are 3 recoveries in these cases: his, hers and the coupleship.
The issues of trust, betrayal, lying, gaslighting etc. need to be faced to be repaired. I help couples with communication skills as well as methods of dealing with trauma and its aftermath. Trust and intimacy can be restored over time.

James Foley Sexual Misbehavior, Infidelity , Expert 31 Years Experience
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, SOTS,
Infidelity by a partner is caused by one persons issues, not the couples issues, and the distorted thinking and self destructive behavior by that one partner is corrected by fixing that one members distorted views, and thus eliminating that self destructive behavior from that person.
I am an absolute expert at correcting the distorted thoughts and perceptions that create infidelity. I have been doing it for 25 years, as part of my full time practice in one specific area, sexual misbehavior.
I have vast experience in both men who cheat in the classic find a unpaid partner, and I am also extensively experienced in cases where the man uses paid services to act out sexually.

Dr Laura Soden
Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
Too often even people who are successful and effective professionally struggle with relationships, particularly intimate relationships. The prerequisite is to develop a positive relationship with oneself... only a "whole" person will be able to connect with another whole person. But it is within relationship that we learn and improve that self-relationship, making couples' therapy a fortuitous simultaneous format for improving inner and external relationships. The process begins with remembering positive events and feelings that brought the couple together originally, turns to listening skills, tolerating vulnerability, and admitting fault. Throughout, defenses, prior relationships, and internal barriers are examined in session with the partner. Harrowing work at times, but ultimately so very rewarding in enabling greater openness and intimacy.

Katherine Rabinowitz
Licensed Psychoanalyst, LP, M.A., NCPsyA
I work with couples who are having trouble negotiating the difficulty of living together and being in a monogamous relationship. Nearly always, a good part of the problem is communication. People can't, don't know how to, or are afraid to communicate their needs and wants with their significant other. They don't understand compromise, or are unwilling to compromise. (It has two meanings, btw.) The sooner you recognize and accept the roadblocks, and come in for help, the more likelihood of a positive outcome. Learning to listen to the other person, accept what they need and work with it is a big part of the work of couples therapy. It's not easy, especially if the couple has been together for a long time. Sometimes it's past the point of no return, and that too needs to be worked through.
