Daniel Pagano
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PhD, LP, SCC
Relationships surface unconscious patterns and wounds through projection. By exploring your shadow elements, we turn conflict into profound mutual understanding. This spiritual work shifts you from reactivity to conscious, soulful connection. We see your relationship as a sacred alchemical vessel. Using a Jungian lens, we examine underlying myths and archetypes, framing crises as growth opportunities to restore the sacredness of your bond. True partnership is mutual individuation, supporting each other's spiritual unfolding. We identify and clear unconscious contracts and ancestral patterns stifling intimacy, making your marriage a sanctuary for personal healing and shared evolution.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You don’t have to be in couples therapy to work on your relationship. Many people come to individual therapy to better understand patterns that show up with partners—communication struggles, conflict cycles, attachment dynamics, or questions about staying or leaving. Together, we’ll explore your experience of the relationship, including what feels stuck or unsatisfying, and look at how your history, expectations, and emotional responses shape these dynamics. The goal isn’t to assign blame, but to develop greater clarity, flexibility, and agency in how you relate—so you can make more intentional choices about your relationship and your role within it.

I work with new couples, long term relationships, LGBTQIA coupes, as well as infidelity, divorce in relationships. The work includes looking at communication patterns and changing ineffective patterns to support connection and growth, discovering how our family of origins blueprints impact current relationships and shifting that imprint to one that works for the couple today. I also do pre-marital counseling, and provide tools of communication and connection.

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.

Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
It's hard and it hurts to struggle in relationships. We can feel so alone even though we are living with someone. Developing more effective ways to communicate, understanding ourselves and our partners better, and more, are all possible in couples work. I spent several years training to do this work and am a certified couples/marital therapist. I incorporate psychodynamic therapy techniques as well as Gottman and EFT approaches in my work with couples.

Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Relationships can feel overwhelming when communication breaks down or patterns keep repeating. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to help couples slow down, better understand one another, and rebuild connection. Using evidence-based practices like CBT, ACT, and family systems work, I help partners improve communication, manage emotional reactivity, and create healthier, more secure relationships. I have experience working with couples navigating anxiety, ADHD, autism, and life transitions, and I bring a warm, flexible approach to each session. Together, we’ll work toward greater clarity, trust, and connection.

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
