Hayden Dover
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, CST
My work with couples focuses on helping partners create more honest, connected, and fulfilling relationships. I work with communication problems, recurring conflict, emotional distance, resentment, desire differences, sexless relationships, infidelity, trust repair, and major life transitions. As a Certified Sex Therapist, I also help couples talk more directly and respectfully about sexuality, desire, intimacy, and the patterns that keep them disconnected.

Claire Babbitt, LMFT, JD
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, J.D.
Meeting with couples can be helpful to reduce immediate tension, anger and confusion. In some cases where individuals are experiencing divorce or separation it can be very helpful to gain perspective from a third party who presents a non judgemental, empathic, and goal oriented approach to the immediate problem. My legal training is often helpful in presenting a practical, non emotional approach to the ongoing conflict or
immediate crisis

Couples therapy is not about deciding who’s right — it’s about learning how to hear each other and rebuild trust. I help partners slow down their conflicts, identify recurring cycles, and practice new ways of connecting that strengthen the relationship.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Relationships are some of the most rewarding parts of life—but they can also bring stress, frustration, and conflict. I specialize in helping couples and partners navigate challenges such as communication difficulties, trust issues, emotional disconnection, infidelity, and differing values or expectations.
In therapy, couples gain a safe, structured space to explore underlying dynamics, improve understanding, and develop skills for healthy communication and problem-solving. My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Family Systems Theory, helping partners identify negative interaction patterns, manage emotional reactivity, and create new ways of relating that foster connection, empathy, and mutual respect.
Whether you are looking to repair a struggling relationship, navigate major life transitions together, or strengthen an already healthy partnership, therapy focuses on both insight and action—teaching practical strategies that partners can implement in daily life. I also support blended families, co-parenting couples, and couples navigating significant stressors such as relocation, career changes, or family illness.
My goal is to help couples build resilience, deepen intimacy, and create a relationship foundation that is not only functional but also fulfilling.

Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Relationships can bring immense joy and connection, but they can also be a source of pain, conflict, and frustration. You may find yourselves stuck in the same arguments, feeling emotionally disconnected, struggling with trust, or having difficulty communicating your needs effectively. I help individuals and couples understand the patterns driving these challenges, strengthen emotional connection, improve communication, and create healthier, more secure relationships. Together, we work toward building greater understanding, trust, and connection while addressing the underlying issues that keep couples feeling stuck.
