Couples argue about many things, and it's normal to have disagreements. What you do at those times will determine whether your relationship will survive. Learning how to communicate effectively, from a position of love and respect, is my main focus when working with couples.

Relationships & Couples Therapy: The Courage to Connect
Moving from Conflict Loops to Secure Attachment
Relationships are the primary "systems" we inhabit, and when they are in distress, every other part of our lives—our work, our health, and our parenting—feels the impact. With over 20 years of experience and specialized training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help couples move beyond the surface-level "who said what" to address the deeper attachment needs that drive your conflict.
Deconstructing the "Cycle"
Most couples find themselves stuck in a "negative dance" where one partner pursues and the other withdraws. We work together to identify:
The Pursuit-Withdraw Loop: Understanding how your partner's shut down might be a survival strategy for overwhelm, and how your "pushing" might be a desperate bid for connection.
Rejection Sensitivity & Attachment Trauma: Addressing how past wounds and childhood attachments "show up" in your current arguments.
The Impact of External Systems: Using Systems Theory to explore how social constructs of power, gender roles, and even spiritual expectations influence your dynamic.
A Specialized Clinical Framework
I offer a sophisticated, research-backed path to relational repair:
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Considered the "gold standard" for couples, EFT helps you de-escalate conflict and create a "secure base" where you both feel seen, safe, and valued.
Discernment Counseling: For couples on the brink of divorce or separation who aren't sure if they want to repair or uncouple. I provide a structured, neutral space to gain clarity.
Intensive Repair for High-Conflict: Integrating EMDR to process individual traumas that are leaking into the relationship and fueling chronic volatility or burnout.
For the "Professional" Couple
I have a "special love" for working with healers, pastors, and therapists in relationship. I understand the unique burden of maintaining a "public image" of a healthy marriage while struggling in private. I provide a confidential sanctuary where you can drop the "expert" roles and focus on the raw, human work of loving one another.

* Relationship and Couples Therapy --
What do you want from your relationship?
What do you give to your relationship?
How have you used your strengths to build up your relationship?
How have you used your weaknesses to tear down your relationship?
How do you let your partner know what you want and need from them?
Accountability is a key factor in respecting yourself and others.
When conflict occurs you need skills to leave your emotions out of the business of problem solving. These cognitive behavioral skills include developing effective communication, problem solving, and team playing.
Clear communication allows you to set your boundaries and acknowledge the boundaries of others.
Clarity helps each person understand their commitment and responsibilities.
Power struggles and conflict build resentment and create a lack of intimacy in your relationship that will affect all areas of your life.

Doolittle Therapy Group
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Rather than staying stuck in surface-level arguments, we work to uncover the deeper emotions and needs driving those interactions. In a supportive and structured space, couples learn to express vulnerability, respond with greater empathy, and rebuild a sense of trust and closeness. As new patterns of connection take shape, relationships become more secure, resilient, and fulfilling.

Dr. John VanderKaay & The Center for Mighty Marriages & Families
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, LMFT, BCPCC, BCPC
Marriage is the highest human relationship. It is arguably the hardest one to do well. We are intended to learn how to be married well by watching our dad and mom be married well. If we didn't see that, we must learn somewhere else.
I help couples build trust, have effective communication and conflict resolution skills, and get and stay emotionally attuned and connected to each other, regardless of what life throws at them.

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.

Crystal Williamson
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.

Jill Wiseman
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC-S
Relationships can become strained when stress, misunderstandings, or unresolved hurt accumulate over time. Many couples find themselves repeating the same arguments, feeling unheard, or gradually growing more disconnected despite caring deeply about each other.
In couples therapy, I help committed partners slow down reactive patterns, improve communication, and better understand each other’s perspectives and emotional needs. Together we work on developing healthier ways of navigating conflict, strengthening emotional connection, and rebuilding trust when relationships feel stuck. Usually this includes skill building in the areas of emotional intelligence, communication, problem solving, perspective taking and conflict resolution.
Infidelity and abusive relationships are not in my scope of training and practice, so I would refer those situations to other professionals.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Childhood patterns often emerge in the context of our intimate love relationships. Work to identify and unpack these can be very helpful at bringing these into awareness and helping folks choose rather than react. Core themes in relationship work include differentiation and taking responsibility for self-regulation emotionally which can set the stage for true intimacy as opposed to tangled patterns of reactivity.
