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.

Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in relationships.
I work with individuals on the patterns that surface in their relationships: having the same argument on repeat without it ever resolving, wanting closeness and then pulling away once you have it, ending up in the same kind of relationship again and again, or being uncertain whether to stay, leave, or try again. Dating, family relationships, infidelity, separation and divorce, and non-monogamous relationships often bring people to this work as well.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we look at what these patterns are communicating rather than only at the conflict in front of us. A withdrawal that frustrates the people close to you now may once have been the safest response you had, learned long before this relationship began. That carries an unconscious logic worth understanding, not simply overriding. We also pay attention to what happens between us in session, since old relational patterns tend to surface there too. Over time, this kind of attention can loosen what willpower alone could not.
If a relationship has you repeating the same struggle, I would be glad to talk.

Dr. James R. McClymonds
Psychologist, Psy.D., HSPP
Are you stressed out? And is it getting harder to "just not think about it?" I specialize in helping people work through stressful transitions and high-conflict situations. Through individual or couple's therapy, we can work together to achieve the goals you've wanted, but have felt out of reach.

Angela Nguyen
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The main reason why I've become a Marriage and Family Therapist is due to my passion in helping relationships. It's really easy to misconstrue and also be misunderstood by others, and so it's helpful to have someone help interpret and draw out what's really being communicated.

Rachel Miller
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Couples often get stuck in patterns shaped by power dynamics, communication habits, or unspoken expectations. I work with partners to explore these dynamics, improve understanding and emotional connection, and develop practical skills for conflict resolution, communication, and fair division of labor. My approach emphasizes accountability, mutual growth, and building a partnership that reflects both partners’ needs and values.
