Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In therapy for relationship and marital issues, I provide support to couples to navigate challenges and strengthen their bond. This involves creating a safe and respectful space for both partners to express their feelings and concerns. Through communication exercises and conflict resolution techniques, we work on improving communication skills and addressing underlying issues. I also help couples rebuild trust, deepen emotional intimacy, and rediscover shared values and goals. The goal is to foster healthier patterns of interaction and enhance overall relationship satisfaction.

Vickie Bhatia
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with couples using Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT). IBCT focuses on the real pattern a couple gets stuck in, not just surface-level communication tips, and builds both understanding and concrete change around it. I work with couples navigating recurring conflict, disconnection, infidelity, and major life decisions together.
