Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Relationships and marriage can bring deep connection as well as moments of conflict, disconnection, and unmet needs. Patterns that develop over time can be hard to shift without support. Together, we explore these dynamics, improve communication, and work toward a more secure, balanced, and fulfilling way of relating to one another.

Ashley Miller Nolan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find {with awareness and compassion} all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it." ~ Rumi So much of my work with couples comes back to this quote. When we are aware of those barriers within ourselves we can get a lot further a lot faster than details of daily life that so quickly distract us from our true work.
Some of my current favorite relationship books:
Conscious Loving: The Journey to Co-Commitment, A Way to Be Fully Together Without Giving Up Yourself by Gay Hendricks and Kathly Hendricks
The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work: A Practical Guide from the Country's Foremost Relationship Expert by John M Gottman and Nan Silver
How We Love: Discover Your Love Style, Enhance Your Marriage by Milan and Kay Yerkovich

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.

Online Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout & Life Transitions -AZ, IL, OH
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC
Relationships can be one of our greatest sources of connection and also one of our greatest sources of pain. I help couples and individuals navigate communication breakdowns, emotional distance, conflict cycles, infidelity, and the stressors that come with major life transitions. Using evidence‑based approaches like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, we work to rebuild trust, strengthen emotional intimacy, and create healthier patterns of connection. For clients who desire it, I also integrate Christian‑based guidance to support healing, forgiveness, and values‑aligned decision‑making. Whether you’re repairing, rebuilding, or discerning your next steps, therapy offers a grounded space to move forward with clarity and compassion.

Gracie Orellano
Marriage and Family Therapist, ALMFT
With my background in Couple and Family Therapy, it is crucial to my work to understand the relational systems in your life. Families, blood-related and chosen, are the foundational examples for your values and emotional connection. For couples, these relational dynamics are how we learn vulnerability, fear, emotional expression, etc. Within our sessions, you can gain understanding of these generational patterns that are impacting your relationships and get to a place of honesty, communication and connection.

Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
My goal when working with couples is to validate each partner's experience, while identifying aspects of the couple's interactions with each other that contribute to conflict and relationship dissatisfaction. Once these elements are identified, we will work as a team to identify alternative ways of interacting that feel congruent and effective for each partner.
