Averill Hovey
Art Therapist, MA, MA, LPC-S, ATR-BC, EMDR
Relationships can be a source of deep connection and support, but they can also become places where old patterns, unmet needs, and difficult emotions emerge. Couples may find themselves having the same arguments, feeling increasingly disconnected, struggling with trust or intimacy, or trying to navigate significant changes together.
My approach to relationship counseling is collaborative, experiential, and focused on understanding what is happening beneath the patterns that keep partners feeling stuck. Drawing from Gestalt and experiential approaches, art therapy, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and attachment-informed work, I help partners slow down interactions, recognize underlying emotions and needs, and develop new ways of communicating and connecting.
Relationship therapy is not about determining who is right or wrong. It is an opportunity to better understand yourself, your partner, and the dynamic you create together. Whether you are working through conflict, rebuilding connection, navigating a transition, or simply wanting a stronger relationship, therapy can provide a space to communicate more openly and intentionally.

Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a licensed marriage and family therapist, the bulk of my research and practice is on relationships. Couples often seek counseling to improve their communication, resolve conflicts, improve their intimacy, recover from infidelity, manage an addiction, or work through a stressor. Sharing a life with another person comes with challenges. I'll share some tools for managing roadblocks and help strengthen your bond.

Jennifer Luttman
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, ACS
Despite being one of the greatest sources of joy in our lives, romantic relationships are incredibly hard work. Often, it is those we love most who can become the source of our greatest disagreements, and left unaddressed, these disagreements can grow and fester over time to become one of the greatest sources of pain in our lives.
Given the emotionally charged nature of romantic conflicts, couples often don't know how to effectively and respectfully address the constant demands of their relationship. These issues can become overwhelming, and sadly, many loving couples lash out at one another as a result. In some cases, these relationships may, sadly, end.
Many couples delay getting therapy to resolve their issues. A belief that couples should be able to "work things out" on their own, combined with a lack of understanding of the nature of couples therapy, unfortunately, delays the process of seeking help and serves to raise the risk of significant damage being done to the relationship.

Melissa Clark with Fire and Reins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Certified Master Equine Gestaltist
I support individuals navigating relationship and marriage challenges, including communication breakdowns, recurring conflict, emotional distance, trust ruptures, and periods of disconnection or uncertainty. Whether you are working to strengthen your relationship or are at a crossroads, this space is designed to help you slow down and better understand the patterns shaping how you relate to one another.
In our work together, we focus on what is happening beneath the surface of interaction—how each person experiences the relationship in real time, what gets triggered, and how protective patterns develop and repeat. This allows for greater awareness, accountability, and the possibility of shifting long-standing cycles that keep you feeling stuck or misunderstood.
This is a collaborative, process-oriented approach that supports deeper emotional clarity, improved communication, and a more intentional way of engaging in your relationship or marriage.

Tori Buckley
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
As an ambiamorous person myself, my clients regularly express a tremendous sense of relief not having to educate me on the lingo or having to fear that I'll think their relationship structure is the cause of their issues. I also assist clients in deciding if ethical non-monogamy is for them and supporting them in beginning their explorations of opening up. With all relationship counseling, it's important to find ways of building a bridge between differences in perspective, solidifying a foundation in trust and communication, and working towards all parties are living their best lives leading to enhancement of the relationship.
