Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Erik Edler
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LMFT
Over the years, I've found that seeing people individually for their relationship issues is actually far more productive than traditional couples counseling. Often couples counseling goes round and round and ultimately goes no where. All it takes is for one member of the couple to not be fully committed to the process, and that becomes the hole in the boat that sinks the whole process. Coming to counseling on your own to work on your relationship issues is ultimately more empowering and more successful. I would be happy to talk with you more about my perspective on helping relationships and marriages, so feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I embrace a supportive and empathetic approach towards relationship and marriage counseling, acknowledging the unique journey each couple undertakes. By weaving together a rich tapestry of holistic strategies and psychotherapeutic tools, including Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Role-Playing, Emotional Family Therapy (EFT), and Imago Therapy, we collaboratively address the heart of relationship challenges. This integrative approach not only uncovers the roots of conflict and communication breakdowns but also nurtures a deeper connection and understanding between partners. Through these varied techniques, couples learn to navigate disputes, rebuild trust, and enhance emotional intimacy within a secure and caring space. Focusing on individual growth as a cornerstone for a healthy relationship, I guide partners towards self-awareness and mutual respect, empowering them to enrich their shared journey. My role is to facilitate this path of exploration and renewal, equipping couples with the insights and strategies necessary for a loving and resilient partnership.

The Mindful Life with Lori Kahn
Life Coach, Certified Integrative Coach, Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher, Certified Neurofeedback
I have worked with many couples from simply wanting to reconnect in a long term and functional marriage to couples on the verge of divorce. Utilizing mindfulness tools and teaching self inquiry, communication and how to check in and have "difficult conversations" as well as discovering more about our own needs and how to be honest and ask for support rather than hope our partner can read our minds can transform our relationships from one of unconscious habits and patterns to stepping in each day with curiosity and discovery. Though we are all always changing, we often expect our relationships to be in a fixed state and are disappointed, hurt or feel betrayed when they change. Learning to be comfortable with change is a foundation of mindful relationships!

Ilah Brock - Central Valley Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht
I cannot counsel couples but I can educate anyone on relationship strategies and why some people behave one way or another. How many reading have said to themselves, "If he/she would only just do what I need them to do and not buck me, we'd get along just fine" or "If she/he would only change that behavior I do not like - How can I make that happen?"
Of course you cannot change anyone to do anything - But you can change you and how you react to your partner.
This concept is quite effective helping people understand their own relationship habits and patterns. Learn and then be ready to have the most amazing relationship you could ever imagine! It really does work!

Tivoli Cousineau
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many relationships need assistance moving through rough patches. Counseling can help couples find ways to increase feelings of safety, decrease destructive patterns of communication, and increase pleasure and intimacy as partners learn to team up against life's challenges.
