Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Most couples don't come to therapy when things first start going wrong. They come after years of the same argument, after the distance has grown too wide to ignore, after something broke and they're not sure it can be repaired. Wherever you are in that story, it's not too late to do something different.
As a Gottman Method certified therapist, I bring one of the most extensively researched approaches to couples work available. The Gottman Method isn't about talking in circles — it's about understanding the specific patterns that are eroding your relationship and replacing them with something that actually works. After more than 20 years of working with couples, I've seen what gets people stuck and what helps them find their way back to each other.
I work with couples navigating communication breakdown, emotional disconnection, rebuilding trust after betrayal, and the quiet drift that turns partners into strangers. I also offer premarital counseling for couples who want to build a strong foundation before they say yes.
Marriage is hard. But a struggling marriage isn't a failed one — it's one that needs skilled, intentional support. If you're both willing to show up, there's a lot that's possible.
Faith can be woven into our work for couples who want that. Telehealth sessions make it easy to attend together from home, on a schedule that fits your lives.

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.

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.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I specialize in couples and relationship counseling and have worked with couples of all walks of life. We all know that relationships take some hard work sometimes to make sure we have a happy fullfilling relationship. Sometimes partners can resolve difficulties that arise on their own. But, sometimes, partners can get stuck in certain issues when regular resolution strategies they tend to use just are not working. Also, our lives are often in an ever changing state where new or different needs may come up for one or both partners. I work with couples, polycules, and all different structures of relationship and work from an integrative lens as every couple is unique and we may need to adjust the approach to help. I do however work a lot from Gottman therapy and also emotion focused therapy with my couples. Just a few more things... I'm poly-competent, trauma informed, kink affirming, and welcome all types of relationships.

Marriage is God’s first covenant with man, but it can come with its own set of challenges. Knowing God’s will for marriage can help bring harmony into the relationship. Having a toolbox to use can be invaluable to couples.

Brad Byrum
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MBA, LMFT
I am a relationship therapist. I help couples in relationship distress. Many of the couples I work with come to therapy feeling lost in conflict cycles which they don't understand and desperately want to change. I understand how much courage it takes to reach out for help and to let another person get inside your relationship, especially when you are feeling hurt, discouraged, angry, or humiliated. If you are searching for a safe place to explore what's not working in your relationship, and support in creating solutions, please contact me.
I realized early in my clinical practice that I wanted to focus on couples therapy. In addition to many hundreds of hours working with couples in distress, I have pursued training specific to couples therapy, including advanced training in both Emotion Focused Therapy and the Gottman approach. I am truly passionate about helping couples heal and flourish.
Please know that no matter what you bring to couple therapy, I will meet you with compassion. I will help you explore what isn’t working in your relationships and why. We work together to understand what you want and need and to identify the changes you want to make. Together, we create solutions that work for you.

Counselor/Therapist, LCSW
Taking on others emotions and feelings? Can't stay focused on yourself? Feeling like you need to take care of others? Staying self focused, accepting that you cannot change others and/or fix their problems can be hard. You might have learned these unhealthy patterns growing up. You have the choice now and I am here to help. Call me for a free consultation.

Dr. Jacob Lebar
Psychologist, PhD, JD
This is a secondary specialization of mine. Relationship stress is common in those dealing with primary mental health concerns. My specialty here is in the facilitation of communication, teaching communication tools, increasing insight on when the present emotions are too high and what to do about that. I also help my clients who have partners with mental health concern themselves and how to best communicate how those issues may impact them and the partnership as a whole.

Dr. Jacqueline Bentley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships come in all forms, whether you are looking for premarital help before walking down the isle, your relationship could use some maintenance work, or you are feeling severe relationship discord, I am here to help. I have extensive training and education in working with individuals and couples through relationship ups and downs. I will tailor my approach for what your relationship needs, including strengthening communication, building intimacy, better conflict management, discussing compromise, or learning to show respect and love in the ways that your partner can receive and accept them. If you want to come to therapy to address relationship issues and your partner is unwilling to come or you want to attend alone, I want to encourage you to do so. Therapy can still be very effective with only one partner present and I would be happy to assist you in repairing your relationship concerns.

Jennifer Pinkerton
Therapist, M.S., LMFT, CTP, C-PD
Relationships are difficult. Often unmet needs can be the foundational concern with no way of reaching the understanding level of the other partner. Additionally attachment concerns and generational influences can affect how you function in a relationship. Therapy can allow for an awareness as well as constructive tools to allow for less reactive cycles and de-eslacated conflict with a focus on primary emotions and connection.

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.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
Do you need a neutral party to help you and your partner learn to communicate with each other without getting sucked in to the same unproductive and hurtful conflict patterns again and again? If both partners are willing, the three of us can work together as a team to make the toxic patterns the enemy instead of each other.

My work blends therapeutic expertise with the clarity of an author’s perspective, making complex dynamics easier to understand and shift. Whether you're rebuilding or enriching your relationship, our work will bring you back to one another with purpose.
