Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPPC, LPC
Even strong relationships can face challenges. Whether you're struggling with communication issues, recurring conflict, trust concerns, emotional distance, infidelity, or navigating a major life transition together, therapy can provide a supportive space to better understand one another and strengthen your connection. My approach focuses on improving communication, increasing emotional intimacy, developing healthier conflict-resolution skills, and helping couples work through challenges with greater understanding and respect. Together, we'll identify unhelpful patterns and build a stronger foundation for a healthier, more fulfilling relationship.

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.

Relationship and marriage counseling is the primary focus of my practice. I work with couples in Austin, Los Angeles, Miami and online throughout Florida, California, and Texas who want to communicate more effectively, handle conflict without damaging their connection, and build a more secure partnership. My approach combines attachment-based relationship therapy with practical tools couples can begin using in everyday life.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Relationships are difficult. It takes many very unnatural behaviors to create a high-quality relationship. Improving your reactions to your partner is the most important aspect and, since it is the only thing you can control anyway, this is your work. Whether it's in a couple’s session or you do the work individually, you will need to improve yourself and your reactivity and become a better you. Too many couples enter my office and expect me to change their partner because they want relief from their negative interactions. I will always gently steer things back to what you can do to make things better. My style is solution oriented, where I will give you all the tools I can in order to reduce conflict and increase connection, making a better relationship.

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Conflict in relationships often reflects deeper developmental patterns shaped long before the partnership began. I integrate IFS, attachment-based models, and EFT to help couples understand how early relational experiences influence current dynamics.
Together, we slow down reactive cycles, strengthen emotional regulation, and build secure attachment within the relationship. Therapy provides a structured, supportive environment for repair, accountability, and renewed connection.

Brad Byrum
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MBA, LMFT
I am a relationship therapist. I help couples in relationship distress. Many of the couples I work with come to therapy feeling lost in conflict cycles which they don't understand and desperately want to change. I understand how much courage it takes to reach out for help and to let another person get inside your relationship, especially when you are feeling hurt, discouraged, angry, or humiliated. If you are searching for a safe place to explore what's not working in your relationship, and support in creating solutions, please contact me.
I realized early in my clinical practice that I wanted to focus on couples therapy. In addition to many hundreds of hours working with couples in distress, I have pursued training specific to couples therapy, including advanced training in both Emotion Focused Therapy and the Gottman approach. I am truly passionate about helping couples heal and flourish.
Please know that no matter what you bring to couple therapy, I will meet you with compassion. I will help you explore what isn’t working in your relationships and why. We work together to understand what you want and need and to identify the changes you want to make. Together, we create solutions that work for you.
