Carmalyn Lashley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships and marriages can be a source of great joy and fulfillment, but they can also be a source of stress and conflict. As a therapist, I understand the complexities of relationships and the challenges that couples may face. My approach to treating relationship and marriage issues is based on evidence-based techniques such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method. These techniques help couples to understand and express their emotions, to communicate effectively, and to develop deeper connections. I work with couples to identify patterns of behavior that may be causing difficulties in their relationship and to develop new ways of interacting that promote understanding and connection. I also help couples to identify and work through underlying issues that may be contributing to their difficulties. My goal is to support couples in improving their relationships and finding greater satisfaction and fulfillment in their lives together.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with couples at all stages of their relationships, from those looking to deepen connection to those navigating significant strain or considering major decisions about the future. Relationships can be both deeply fulfilling and profoundly challenging, and many couples find themselves stuck in patterns of miscommunication, disconnection, or recurring conflict.
My approach is active, direct, and grounded in helping both partners better understand not only each other, but their own contributions to the dynamic. I focus on identifying patterns, improving communication, and fostering greater emotional awareness and accountability within the relationship.
I also draw from structured approaches, including discernment counseling when one partner feels uncertain about whether to stay or leave, creating space for thoughtful, intentional decision-making.
The goal is not simply to reduce conflict, but to help couples build more meaningful, resilient, and satisfying ways of relating—whether that leads to strengthening the relationship or gaining clarity about next steps.

Aiki Relationship Institute
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Relationship therapy/counseling is the heart of my practice. I am passionate about helping people create and maintain the best possible intimate relationships they can. While I have a lot of experience working with larger families, my focus over the past 20 years has shifted more and more to working with couples and intimate relaitonships. My style tends to be quite active, and I believe a very large part of what leads to success in couples therapy is what happens between sessions. To that end, I work to help people develop new ways of thinking and acting into their lives that help in their transformation. Learning to understand the emotional aspect of interaction is also very important. I push couples pretty hard, but also offer a lot of support.

Dr. Tuvia Hoffman
Psychologist, Psychologist, PhD
Relationships are a journey, and it's natural to face bumps along the way—whether it's miscommunication, unresolved tension, or simply drifting apart. Couples therapy offers a safe, compassionate space where you and your partner can come together to share your feelings, understand each other's needs, and work through challenges with kindness and care. By improving communication, rebuilding trust, and finding new ways to connect, couples therapy can help you rediscover the love and joy that first brought you together.
