Dr. William K. Grevatt
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Ed.D. (CA Medical Board License #RP 227)
My approach to therapy as a Jungian analyst is to listen deeply to discover the unique person that you are and the problems you are facing. In a safe, caring, and supportive setting we will utilize dream analysis, journaling, and other creative work to help guide you back to the wisdom within.

Anthony Canapi - Your Queer Relationship Therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Relationships can bring immense joy, and also activate our deepest wounds. You may find yourselves stuck in the same arguments, navigating trust after betrayal, struggling with mismatched needs, exploring non-monogamy, or simply feeling disconnected.
My approach to couples work is collaborative and relational. We slow down patterns rather than blame each other. Together, we’ll examine communication dynamics, attachment styles, boundaries, intimacy, sexual connection, and shared meaning. I work affirmatively with LGBTQ+ couples and diverse relationship structures, honoring that there is no single “right” way to love- only what feels aligned and mutually respectful for you.
Whether you’re dating, engaged, married, or redefining your partnership, therapy can help you move from reactivity toward intentional connection.

Luis Maimoni
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships come in all shapes and sizes, and like snowflakes, no two are unique. What's come between the you and your most important relationship(s)? Are you arguing more? Do you spend the day feeling irritated? Are you no longer able to trust your partner? Is your partner making unreasonable demands, or is your partner not able to meet your reasonable expectations? Are you listening to each other? Do you feel understood?
There is no "single" way to treat a relationship. Let's learn what's going on with yours and identify what's needed (communications? intimacy? sex? boundaries? expectations?).

Tracy Sachs (Singh)
Therapist, MA, AMFT
Relationships can be a profound source of connection, belonging, and growth, but even loving couples can become caught in painful patterns that leave both partners feeling misunderstood or alone. Drawing from attachment theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help couples understand what is happening beneath recurring conflict, strengthen emotional connection, rebuild trust, and create a relationship that feels more secure, responsive, and alive.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
Our training with Relational: Couples/Partners/Family/Chosen Family... work includes Nonviolent Communication, Neurodevelopmental Models, Real Life Therapy, Compassionate Mediation, Convergent Facilitation, Polyvagal Theory, Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems and Intimacy from the Inside Out work, Neurodiversity Training...among other trainings. Partners/Couples/Chosen Family work can range from addressing a topical issue to growing and developing capacity with deeper connection. Sometimes the care is in supporting folks to identify differing neurobiological baselines and functionality that allows for better acceptance and creative teamwork. We may even draw from sidereal astrology and archetypal work to find creative options. (Statement of care: Sometimes, not always!!!! (the sad truth is) people have transactional or fantasy based relationships and they don't want to admit that that is what the setup is by one or both people, and without shame if folks in these situations can admit that, then there is generally less stress to make a relationship behave as something it isn't setup to be -- said with care. Often this needs to be addressed before progress can be made.) Sessions are typically 2 hours long and address issues efficiently, often individual sessions are woven in for both/all participants. Please feel free to inquire about scheduling a first session.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Before, during, after a marriage. What couple doesn't benefit from a little tune up now and again? Is it communication? How can we express ourselves authentically without letting our trauma get in the way? Are we actually listening? Communication is a set of skills that can be learned, honed, and practiced over time. It is not the magic cure to all that ails, but it is a helpful first step. When a couple is able to communicate effectively they are able to deepen their exploration of each other and start to connect and heal in meaningful ways.

Marcelle Little
Marriage and Family Therapist, MPH, MA
Who does not or has not had a challenging relationship? Our deepest desire is to connect; yet, conflict and pain is unavoidable. Seeing things from an attachment style lens (anxious, avoidant, chaotic) helps identify gaps while cultivating self-compassion, a conduit for intimacy and connection to Self and others.
