Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
When couples come to me, they're often stuck in a loop: the same argument, the same hurt, the same retreat to separate corners. I use the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT), which I trained in directly under its founder, Dr. Stan Tatkin. We work with what happens between you in real time, so you learn how to calm each other, repair faster, and feel like a team again. I work with dating, engaged, married, and blended-family couples, and I welcome every orientation and relationship structure.

Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Most couples do not come to me in a crisis. They come in tired. The same argument on a loop, the roommate feeling, the distance that crept in so slowly neither of you can name when it started. I use the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help you get underneath the fight to what you are each actually asking for. The goal is not to win. The goal is to feel like a team again.
The best time to build a strong marriage is before you are standing in the hard part. Premarital work with me is not a box to check before the wedding. It is real conversation about money, family, faith, intimacy, and the expectations you each brought without knowing it. You will leave with a shared language for the seasons you cannot see yet.

Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Therapist, Betrayal Trauma Therapist & Coach, Sex & Porn Addiction Therapist & Coach. Visit my website 👇
Relationships can be deeply impacted by infidelity, betrayal, pornography, sex addiction, compulsive sexual behaviors, emotional disconnection, and loss of trust. I help couples navigate these difficult relationship challenges through confidential, compassionate, and nonjudgmental marriage and couples support
My work includes infidelity recovery, betrayal recovery, betrayal trauma, trust issues, intimacy problems, sexual relationship concerns, pornography use, porn addiction, sex addiction, and problematic or compulsive sexual behaviors. Whether you are trying to save your marriage after an affair, rebuild trust following betrayal, or address the impact of pornography or sexual compulsivity, A Safe Place To Share provides a structured space to understand what happened and determine how to move forward.
For couples affected by infidelity or betrayal, we can address anger, grief, anxiety, insecurity, shame, resentment, loss of trust, and the challenges of restoring emotional and physical intimacy. When porn addiction, sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior affects a relationship, both partners may need support, the partner struggling with the behavior may experience shame, secrecy, and guilt, while the betrayed partner may experience trauma, emotional distress, loss of safety, and difficulty trusting again.
Together, we can work toward rebuilding trust, improving communication, repairing emotional and physical intimacy, establishing healthy boundaries, understanding relationship patterns, and creating meaningful change. My goal is to help couples create relationships that are healthier, safer, more honest, and more connected.
If your marriage or relationship has been affected by an affair, infidelity, betrayal, pornography, sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior, A Safe Place To Share can help you understand the path forward and determine what healing and a healthier relationship can look like.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for relationship issues, including communication breakdowns, emotional disconnection, trust concerns, recurring conflict, and difficulty maintaining healthy and fulfilling partnerships. Relationship challenges can affect emotional well-being, daily stress levels, family dynamics, and overall quality of life, often leaving individuals or couples feeling stuck, misunderstood, or disconnected.
Brad takes a holistic and collaborative approach to relationship counseling, helping clients identify and understand the emotional patterns, attachment styles, and past experiences that may be contributing to current relationship difficulties. Therapy provides a supportive space to explore both present-day challenges and underlying relational or trauma-related factors that may be influencing how partners connect, communicate, and respond to one another.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support healing and healthier relationship functioning. Treatment focuses on improving communication, strengthening emotional awareness, reducing reactivity, and developing more secure and supportive relational patterns.
Relationship difficulties are often influenced by deeper emotional experiences, including past trauma, attachment wounds, family-of-origin dynamics, and individual personality differences. Brad’s approach helps clients understand these deeper influences while also focusing on practical, present-day changes that improve connection, trust, and emotional safety.
Therapy is tailored to each individual or couple’s needs and is designed to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where both partners (when applicable) can feel heard and understood. The goal is to support meaningful, lasting change rather than temporary conflict resolution.
Healing and growth in relationships are possible. With the right support, clients can rebuild trust, improve communication, and create healthier, more balanced, and more fulfilling relationships.
