Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Relationships can feel frustrating, exhausting, and lonely when you and your partner keep having the same fights, shutting down, or drifting further apart. Maybe you feel unheard, stuck in cycles of blame and defensiveness, or like roommates instead of partners. No matter how much you try to fix things, the same patterns keep repeating. When resentment builds and communication breaks down, it’s easy to wonder if things will ever change. Many couples struggle not because they don’t love each other, but because they never learned the tools to connect in a way that actually works. Traditional couples therapy can sometimes feel slow or unproductive, focusing on surface-level issues without addressing the deeper wounds driving disconnection.
That’s why I use Relational Life Therapy (RLT), a direct and results-driven approach that helps couples break toxic cycles and rebuild trust fast. Unlike traditional therapy, RLT gets to the root of the problem quickly, holding both partners accountable while teaching powerful skills for effective communication, conflict resolution, and deeper emotional connection. If your relationship needs an even more focused approach, I offer a 2-day Couples Communication Intensive, designed to help you transform your relationship in a single weekend. This immersive experience provides structured guidance, practical tools, and deep emotional repair so you don’t have to spend months in therapy waiting for change. You and your partner can learn how to truly hear each other, repair past wounds, and build a stronger, more fulfilling relationship—starting now. If you’re ready to stop feeling stuck and start reconnecting, let’s do the work together.

Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LPCC, CSAT
Cynthia can assist you in resolving relational trauma. Relational trauma refers to emotional injury that occurs within the context of a close relationship, such as childhood trauma, abusive relationships, neglect, or betrayal. This trauma can cause lasting impacts on one’s ability to form healthy attachments and establish trust in future relationships. The effects of relational trauma may include:
Difficulty trusting others or feeling emotionally safe in relationships.
Low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy or worthlessness.
Fear of abandonment or rejection.
Emotional dysregulation, including mood swings or difficulty coping with stress.

Lynda Griffin Bull
Counselor/Therapist, MC, LPC
Healthy relationships require communication, understanding, and the ability to navigate conflict in constructive ways. When couples feel stuck in patterns of misunderstanding or distance, it can create frustration and emotional pain. In counseling, I work with couples to identify the underlying dynamics that may be contributing to conflict and to build healthier ways of communicating and relating to one another. My goal is to help partners strengthen connection, increase understanding, and develop tools that support a more fulfilling and respectful relationship.

Dr. Florence Rosiello
Therapist, Ph.D.
Most of my work is with people who have difficulty in relationships, either feeling too emotionally isolated or too merged. My strength lies in helping people find a place where they can be in intimate relationships and not lose themselves. Loving is difficult - and feeling loved, is even harder.

Alice Barton
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Couples come to therapy for 2 reasons: either to couple or uncouple or to take an already loving relationship and assist with communication and connection using a Marriage Meeting modality which is evidence-based. I have used this intervention many times with couples. It helps build in positive behaviors while correcting old behaviors .
