David Essel, M.S., O.M.
Counselor/Therapist, Master's Degree Psychology, Ordained All Faiths Minister
David;s approach is so different when it comes to relationship counseling. He does NOT believe in traditional couples counseling, but rather works with each partner 1 on 1, which has given him huge positive results with every client he works with. He does not believe partners should pay for counseling when they continue to argue in sessions, they can do that at home for free.

Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Couples argue about many things, and it's normal to have disagreements. What you do at those times will determine whether your relationship will survive. Learning how to communicate effectively, from a position of love and respect, is my main focus when working with couples.

Lisa C. Holder
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Happy, healthy relationships bring peace and a joyful sense of belonging. However, so often the stresses of life and difficulties in relationships make them tiresome work. Instead of the joy you once had, you may be experiencing sadness and distance. If you are struggling to find the chemistry that brought you together and the good parts of each other that drew you to one another initially, I’d be honored to assist you back on a positive path. I teach healthy coping tools to stress and differences, positive communication styles and help work through original family issues that may be surfacing in current relationships. Sometimes, original pain and trauma in previous relationships can be transferred into current relationships. Let me help you sort through your issues and bring a sense connection back in your lives.

Yaffa Dyckman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
It's hard and it hurts to struggle in relationships. We can feel so alone even though we are living with someone. Developing more effective ways to communicate, understanding ourselves and our partners better, and more, are all possible in couples work. I spent several years training to do this work and am a certified couples/marital therapist. I incorporate psychodynamic therapy techniques as well as Gottman and EFT approaches in my work with couples.

Salutaris Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Relationship counseling can help you better understand the patterns that keep showing up in your connections with others—whether that involves communication struggles, conflict, emotional distance, infidelity, trust issues, unhealthy boundaries, or feeling stuck in the same painful cycle. In therapy, I help clients slow things down, make sense of what is happening beneath the surface, and find healthier ways to express needs, manage conflict, and reconnect with their values. My style is warm, practical, sometimes humorous, and grounded in real life. Together, we work toward more honest communication, clearer boundaries, and relationships that feel more respectful, balanced, and emotionally safe.
