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.

Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
There are two niche areas I specialize in with couples: shared loss/trauma - primarily reproductive, and couples with substance use disorder in one or both partners. If you and your partner need help navigating your relationship, in the areas named here or just with feeling like you've grown apart emotionally or sexually, I can help. I am trained in evidence-based methods to re-structure old patterns or to help you navigate big life challenges in ways that respect you each individually while bringing you closer as a couple.

Robin Kaye Stilwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T.
Whether married, engaged, dating, straight, gay, in conventional, non-conventional relationships, all relationships are important to our health and well-being. Some seek therapy as a "tune up" to tweak minor issues to prevent them from becoming major deal breakers. Some are experiencing potential "deal breakers" and may be considering ending the relationship. Often, one member of the couple is unsure how they feel and may be ambivalent as to what outcome they would like.to see. Each person has a different perspective of how the relationship feels.

Meredith Luttrell
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC, Clinical Supervisor
Whether you're preparing for marriage, rebuilding after betrayal, or simply feeling more like roommates than partners, relationships can find their way back to connection — and I'm here to help. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), one of the most well-researched couples therapy models available, to help partners identify the painful cycles pulling them apart and move toward the safety and closeness they're longing for. From premarital counseling to betrayal trauma, I believe most relationships have more resilience than they appear to in their hardest moments.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships are central to knowing who we are and thus have an enormous impact on our mental health. We often downplay to ourselves that frequent or underlying problems in our relationships are "enough" to feel anxious, sad, or angry about. As a result we often misplace the source of distress solely upon personal failings. Much of my work focuses on helping you clarify what you want and need relationally, working out what is making it hard to communicate those wants and needs, and empowering you to try some new things with your loved ones.
