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.

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.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I provide relationship and marriage counseling for couples and individuals seeking stronger communication, deeper understanding, and healthier connection. With extensive experience working with couples, families, and diverse clinical concerns across community mental health and private practice settings, I help partners identify patterns that create conflict or disconnection while building skills for trust, emotional intimacy, and effective problem-solving. Relationship therapy is often about learning how to clearly communicate needs, desires, and a sense of safety within the relationship so both partners can feel heard, respected, and understood. My approach is balanced, practical, and insight-oriented, supporting clients in creating more stable, respectful, and fulfilling relationships.

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.
