Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in helping couples and individuals navigate challenges in their relationships and marriages. Through evidence-based therapies like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman, and Bowen family systems, I support couples + (polyamory affirming) in improving their emotional connection, resolving conflicts, and fostering a deeper understanding of each other’s needs. Whether it's dealing with communication issues, trust concerns, or life transitions, my goal is to help partners build stronger, healthier relationships. I work collaboratively with couples + to develop practical strategies for enhancing intimacy, resolving disagreements, and creating a more fulfilling partnership.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., LP. DBSM
Dr. Kessler helps couples improve their communication, resolve conflict, and build stronger relationships. With over 25 years of experience working with couples, he uses a variety of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and Gottman therapy. He can help couples with a variety of concerns related to communication issues, sexuality and intimacy, extended families, parenting and blended families.
The most effective way to help couples is to create a safe and supportive space where they can feel comfortable talking about their challenges, focusing on improving communication and understanding. Therapy will help couples to identify and address the underlying issues in their relationship, and develop the skills they need to communicate more effectively and resolve conflict.

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.

Pre-marital counseling can help to create the strong foundation you both deserve. Once in a relationship, difficulties can be addressed and specific behavioral changes along with emotional growth can turn a problematic relationship into what you both deserve.
