Dr. Thomas Ballas
Psychologist, PhD; PSYPACT
The relationship we share with our partner is one of the most significant and transformative connections in our lives. I’ve had the privilege of helping countless couples navigate the complexities of their relationships. With years of experience in diverse clinical settings, including private practice and hospital environments, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the challenges couples face and the strategies needed to overcome them.
Whether addressing communication barriers, emotional disconnect, or breaches of trust, I use evidence-based approaches to guide partners toward greater understanding and connection. I specialize in creating a supportive space where couples can rebuild trust, foster intimacy, and develop the tools to thrive together.
Through my work, I’ve witnessed how couples therapy can transform relationships—helping partners heal, grow closer, and create a fulfilling and resilient bond. Together, we can navigate the challenges you face, allowing your relationship to flourish in new and meaningful ways.

Merritt Leonhardt
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I completed advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. EFT can benefit couples who are struggling with conflict, distress, and poor communication and help improve emotion related problems and build connection. It can also help family members form more secure bonds with one another. EFT has also proven to be a powerful approach for couples dealing with infidelity or other more traumatic incidents, both recent and past and relies on the significance of secure attachment.

Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
Relationships can become caught in patterns that neither person intends, yet both find difficult to change. I help couples slow these interactions enough to understand what each partner needs, fears, or longs for, and how those experiences enter the relationship. The work supports a fuller capacity to hear one another, address difficulties, and develop closeness.
