Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Hello! When working with couples, adult family relationships, and friendships, I take an attachment approach. I want to get to know the stories of past and present relationships, relational patterns, stresses, dreams, and victories that are currently impacting your felt-sense of being known, safely, and fully in your relationship(s). I infuse the decades of research and communication templates of Gottman Method Couples Counseling with the tailored insight of Attachment Core Pattern Therapy. Together we'll discover what part of the relational conflict is really about the issue you're discussing, really about the person you're in conflict with, the deeper roots of pain that are being triggered, and how the relationship you're in can be a part of your healing the rooted relational injury.

Maureen Backman
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA, MS
Often, my clients seek out relationship therapy feeling disconnection - disconnection from their partners, disconnection from themselves, and disconnection from their relationship. You may be feeling like your relationship has reached an impasse - conflicts feel unsolvable, and you’re not sure where to go from here. You may be navigating a major transition in your relationship, and aren’t sure how to find your way back to each other. Or maybe things are going ok, but you’re wanting to experience deeper connection and intimacy. Whatever has brought you to therapy, I’m here to help you and your partner navigate a pathway back to connection.
As your therapist, I help you move from disconnection to connection. I invite you to identify your core desires in your relationship and how you want to feel with each other. We gently explore patterns in your relationship and learn how to create a more positive cycle of interaction. Drawing on my training in mindfulness-based, experiential therapy, I also guide you and your partner through interactive exercises so you have new, reparative experiences in session with each other.
This type of therapy fosters deeper connection and healing that includes body, mind and spirit.
You may be wondering whether relationship therapy is for you, or whether you can bring all of yourself into therapy. You may feel like you and your partner don’t fit the mold of the typical “couple.” My practice welcomes you, and I look forward to co-creating a space that fits your unique partnership. I welcome all constellations of relationship, including open and poly. I affirm sexual and gender diversity in my work, and am kink and BDSM-affirming. I believe therapy should be accessible to all minds and bodies, and welcome neurodiversity.

Anders Greenwood
Psychologist, Psy.D, Ph.D.
I enjoy helping clients accept and like themselves, organize around strengths, achieve greater emotional presence, think clearly, and let go of shame, guilt and old habits of emotional survival. I believe therapy should lead to better decisions, as well as improved quality of life and relationships.

Taylor Swing
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Have you ever desired to get close to someone but couldn’t? Have you given your all to someone only to be hurt and disappointed in return? Do you question every move you make while you date? You’re not alone. As individuals, we intrinsically seek connection. Whether it be family, friends, dating, or partners - sometimes we all need a little help with boundaries, communication, intimacy, anxiety, codependency, and attachment issues, just to name a few. I join with clients to help build self-awareness, communication, and connection to create secure and trusting relationships.
