Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help individuals and couples improve communication, reduce conflict, strengthen boundaries, and better understand the patterns affecting their relationships. Many clients are balancing demanding careers, stress, parenting, or major life transitions while trying to maintain emotional connection. In therapy, we work on practical tools for clearer communication, healthier conflict, trust, intimacy, and mutual understanding. My goal is to help clients build relationships that feel more stable, honest, and supportive.

Teona Amble
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Do you feel stuck in your relationship? Are you trying to recovery from infidelity or a relationship crisis? Are you ready to improve your communication, conflict management, and trust? We can work together to evaluate your relationship's strengths and areas for growth. Then, we develop a plan for me to guide you with information and tools to survive relationship stress and thrive as a team; or to move forward separately as co-parents or friends. Whether you are beginning a new relationship, working on an existing one, or trying to end one which is no longer working, I am here to support your partner and you on the journey to change.

Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I specialize in working with estranged families and have done this work for over 25 years, long before “estrangement” became a common term. I support adult children and parents who are navigating separation, cutoff, long‑standing disconnection, or early attempts at reconnection. Many families come to me unsure what is possible, what they want, or how to move forward without repeating old patterns or causing further harm. The families I work with are often thoughtful and self‑aware, but feel unsure how to apply that insight to such a painful, layered situation.
My approach draws on family systems therapy and is rooted in trauma‑informed care, relational repair, and deep respect for the complexity of family history. Sessions often explore what led to the estrangement, what may or may not be repairable, and what each person needs in order to feel emotionally safe. We look closely at communication patterns, boundaries, intergenerational trauma, and the roles each person has carried over time. When reconnection is desired, we move in careful, stepwise ways that are tolerable and sustainable for everyone involved.
I meet with adult children and parents, as well as estranged adult siblings who wish to participate together. This service is offered online for adults in PSYPACT states, including families who live in different states and want to meet together in a format that is emotionally safer and more feasible. My role is to offer structure, clarity, and close attention so the work does not move faster than anyone is ready for or stay stuck when more is possible.

Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Relationships can be confusing, difficult, and create intense feelings within us that are difficult to tolerate. The most common struggle people have in relationships is communicating effectively. This often stems from poor models or lack of guidance on how to understand, tolerate, and express negative or uncomfortable emotions.
Over the past 15 years of doing couples work, I have developed an approach that can help both partners feel comfortable, understood, and hopeful. My goal is to help you get to a place where you don't need me anymore and can successfully navigate what arises in your relationship. This often involves healing past hurts and more importantly involves learning effective ways to understand each other and build a strong partnership going forward.
