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.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Having worked with hundreds of couples over the last 40 years, I have developed a set of beliefs or ideas which, if adopted, help to ensure that a relationship will last. One of the most important is: Arguing helps nothing, so don't do it.
I like to say that I never met the person who started the fight! When two people argue, each of them believes that he or she is merely reacting to something the other one did or said. Neither one believes that they started the fight; but it started somehow, didn't it?
It is better to be close than it is to be “right.”
Blaming each other for the argument is counterproductive. So is trying to change the other person's opinion. Most couples who argue, argue about whose perception is "correct," whose way of doing something is the "right" way, and so on. The only possible outcome of these arguments is that someone will be "right" and someone will be "wrong." Do you know anyone who enjoys being wrong? Most people will fight tooth and nail to avoid being "wrong."
Commitment is the Foundation of the Therapy
Commitment implies that you are in the relationship "come Hell or high water," barring certain behaviors your partner might do such as having an affair (although I have seen a number of relationships recover from those, too). Unless each partner believes that the other one is committed, they will not feel safe to take risks in facing, addressing and working out the real, underlying issues that affect the relationship.

Grow together, not apart. Unlike traditional talk therapy, Couple's Coaching emphasizes forward momentum and tangible change. This isn't a space to endlessly process in circles. This structure helps you take daily actions to transform the patterns you've inherited so your relationship gets better and better over time.
