Rick Tivers
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CGP
Highly focused on both the individual in the marriage and the unit as a separate entity. Direct, open and honest communication is used as a mirror for healthy yet honorable communication between all parties involved. I look at the CORE issues in the relationship struggle which supercedes ineffective communication skills.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Relationships carry our deepest hopes and oldest wounds. I help partners and couples communicate with honesty, repair ruptures, and understand how their bodies and histories show up in conflict or withdrawal. My style is warm, culturally aware, and LGBTQ+-affirming. Whether rebuilding trust or deepening intimacy, you’ll find a non-blaming path forward.

Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
TL;DR: Michael focuses on shifting couples from defensive "blame cycles" to a deeper, relational understanding that addresses the root causes of conflict and disconnect.
Relationship distress often feels like a repetitive loop of the same argument, where both partners feel unheard and defensive. With over 35 years of experience, Michael helps couples move beyond surface-level communication tips to examine the underlying "relational scripts" and attachment patterns that drive conflict. By utilizing a developmental psychodynamic model, he works with you to identify how individual histories influence current dynamics, helping to transform reactive patterns into meaningful connection. Whether you are navigating a major crisis, a transition like retirement, or a persistent sense of distance, the goal is to build a partnership rooted in mutual understanding, shared purpose, and lasting intimacy.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
You keep having the same fight with different words. Or you've stopped fighting altogether, not because things are better but because you've stopped trying. The distance between you has grown so gradually you're not sure when it started, only that it's there now, undeniable. Our clinicians are trained in the Gottman Method, the most researched approach to couples therapy available. We help you identify the patterns that are eroding your connection and give you real tools to repair them. This isn't about venting at each other with a referee in the room. It's about learning to turn toward each other again. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.
