Dr. Aleksandra Drecun
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Relationship counseling strengthens bonds involved in interpersonal relationships. It is not necessary to have a troubled relationship to seek counseling. Relationship counseling can include couples or families to achieve more adequate, satisfying and productive romantic and family relationships and social adjustment. Relationship counseling or therapy also includes premarital counseling, divorce or separation counseling and other relationship counseling.

Amy Price, AMP Family Therapy Inc.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a marriage and family therapist, my training is specialized for intimate, close relationships. I utilize faith principles when applicable to the client's belief system, and EFT (emotionally-focused therapy) for couples, which also has a companion book and workbooks. For an additional fee I can also have couples complete the Prepare-Enrich Couples Assessment, which helps couples navigate critical conversations on topics such as sexual intimacy, forgiveness, finances, raising children and relationship roles.

Strong marriages don't happen by accident, they're built intentionally, one conversation at a time.

Whether you're in crisis or simply wanting more, we provide a calm, structured space to do the work.

Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I help individuals who feel stuck in painful relationship patterns—people‑pleasing, conflict avoidance, repeating the same dynamics, or feeling unseen and alone even when partnered. As you grow more connected to your own needs, boundaries, and inner wisdom, you can begin to create relationships that feel safer, more reciprocal, and deeply nourishing.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
A Marriage and Family Therapist has an extensive knowledge on the relational aspects in a family unit. Relationships take much effort as it takes both parties to work toward establishing a healthy relationship as well as maintaining and making further progress in a long-term relationship. The main modalities that can be used are Gottman Methods and Attachment-Based Systemic Therapy. Also a certified domestic violence therapist can help identify warning signs in the relationship to help mitigate or prevent potentially dangerous situations and/or build a healthy relationship if you have been in an unhealthy codependent relationship.

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

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Welcome. 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.
