Every relationship faces challenges, and seeking support is a sign of strength and commitment, not failure. Our couples therapy services help partners navigate communication breakdowns, rebuild trust after betrayal, resolve ongoing conflicts, reignite intimacy, and strengthen their connection. Whether you're facing a specific crisis, feeling disconnected and stuck in negative patterns, or simply want to deepen your relationship, we provide a safe, neutral space where both partners can be heard and understood. Through evidence-based approaches, like Gottman Method certification and EFT, we'll help you develop healthier communication skills, understand each other's needs and perspectives, and work together as a team to create the relationship you both desire. Relationships take work, and with the right guidance and commitment, you can move from conflict to connection and build a stronger, more fulfilling partnership.

Holy sh!t don't get me started. Just kidding!
Seriously, we have to come to the table on this one and just lay it all out. We need to take stock of where a couple is and where they want to be. Let's face it....most of us come together as a couple because we click sexually and it is fun to be together, during fun times. What we do not do; is spend adequate time understanding what strengths and weaknesses we have when things are not going so well.
Just know this: as a couples counselor, I am not here to take sides. There are three entities in the room. You, your spouse and that third entity, your relationship. That is the one I am on the side of. Lastly, often times when I start couples counseling, it is clear to me that one of the parties needs an individual psychotherapist to work on issues that are toxic in the relationship. Be prepared. This is an uphill battle and it takes dedication, time and commitment to change a relationship, and each individual within the relationship.

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.
