Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Most couples do not come to me in a crisis. They come in tired. The same argument on a loop, the roommate feeling, the distance that crept in so slowly neither of you can name when it started. I use the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help you get underneath the fight to what you are each actually asking for. The goal is not to win. The goal is to feel like a team again.
The best time to build a strong marriage is before you are standing in the hard part. Premarital work with me is not a box to check before the wedding. It is real conversation about money, family, faith, intimacy, and the expectations you each brought without knowing it. You will leave with a shared language for the seasons you cannot see yet.

Piyola Derbarseghian- Sex & Relationship Therapist
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Relationships are where we seek connection, but they can also be where we feel the most stuck or misunderstood. I work with individuals, couples, and people in non-traditional relationship structures to improve communication, deepen emotional and physical intimacy, and break free from painful patterns. Whether you're navigating conflict, disconnection, or big life transitions, therapy offers a space to reconnect with yourself and your partner(s).
