Grace Judd
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LAMFT
If you’ve found your way here, odds are something in your world might feel tangled, heavy, or out of alignment. You may love each other deeply and still feel stuck in painful patterns you can’t seem to escape. Maybe conversations escalate quickly, one of you shuts down while the other pursues, resentment keeps building, or trust has been damaged by repeated hurt, betrayal, or emotional disconnection. Over time, couples often begin feeling more like roommates, opponents, or strangers than partners.
Whatever brought you here, you’re not alone and you’re in the right place to begin healing. In couples counseling, you’ll find a space where your nervous system can exhale—where we can slow down, untangle patterns, heal emotional injuries, and strengthen the threads that create secure, meaningful relationships.
I specialize in helping couples slow down these negative cycles, rebuild emotional safety, strengthen communication, and reconnect beneath the conflict. My relationship counseling approach is attachment-based, trauma-informed, and grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Family Systems, and Gottman Method, helping partners move from blame and defensiveness toward understanding, responsiveness, and deeper connection.
Whether you’re navigating chronic conflict, intimacy issues, infidelity recovery, parenting stress, premarital concerns, or the impact of trauma on your relationship, couples therapy can become a space where both partners feel heard, understood, and supported.
I primarily work with couples and adults navigating relationship distress, attachment wounds, trauma, and emotional disconnection.
I currently have availability for in-person and online sessions and would love to connect. Together, we’ll work toward creating a relationship that feels safer, more connected, and more resilient.

Wholehearted Counseling offers a warm, supportive, and trauma-informed space for high-achieving women navigating trauma, burnout, perfectionism, self-worth challenges, and life transitions. I strive to create a therapy experience that feels collaborative, compassionate, and personalized so clients feel safe showing up authentically without pressure to have everything figured out. If traditional talk therapy hasn't provided you with the long-term change you're seeking, I'd love to support you. I offer free 15-mintute consultations to see if we're a good fit.

Jessica Lowrance
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Your personal narrative shapes your identity and how you experience the world. Bearing the weight of an untold, painful story can be agonizing, but by sharing it, we open the door to healing and deep connection. I work with adults and couples to explore how past experiences and attachment themes influence current relationships and your sense of self. If you feel trapped in a difficult chapter, you do not have to find your way out alone. We will work collaboratively in a supportive environment to rewrite your story and rediscover inner peace. Reach out. Show up. Feel better.
