Jacob Hamlin
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed., LMFT, CST
Relationships can become painful when couples get stuck in repeating patterns: pursue and withdraw, criticize and defend, shut down and explode, long for closeness and then protect against it. My work with couples focuses on understanding the cycle beneath the conflict, improving communication, rebuilding emotional safety, and helping partners speak more honestly about hurt, desire, resentment, trust, and hope. I help couples slow the conversation down enough to hear what is really happening underneath the argument. Whether you are trying to reconnect, make an important decision, or repair years of distance, therapy can offer a more intentional path forward.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I approach relationship and marriage counseling with a holistic and faith-centered perspective, integrating psychological insights with Christian principles to guide couples toward healthier and more fulfilling relationships. Recognizing the significance of marriage in Christian teachings, I create a safe and supportive space for couples to explore their challenges, fostering communication and understanding. Incorporating biblical teachings on love, forgiveness, and commitment, I integrate prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on marital virtues into the therapeutic process. I collaborate with couples to address specific issues, offering evidence-based techniques alongside spiritual guidance to navigate conflicts and promote relational growth. This integrated approach seeks to strengthen the marital bond, help couples align their actions with their Christian values, and foster a deeper connection that withstands the challenges of life within the context of their faith.

Dr. Kristyn Neckles
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Relationships can become strained even when love is still present. You may find yourselves having the same arguments, feeling more like roommates than partners, struggling to rebuild trust, or wondering how two people who care deeply about each other became so disconnected.
I help couples move beyond cycles of blame, defensiveness, avoidance, and ineffective communication to better understand what is happening beneath the conflict. Our work focuses not only on how you communicate, but on how each partner shows up in the relationship: the patterns you bring, the needs you may struggle to express, and the ways you respond when you feel hurt, unheard, or disconnected.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and gently direct. I believe healthy relationships require both self awareness and shared responsibility. Rather than focusing only on compromise, we work toward collaboration: learning how to honor two individual experiences while building a relationship in which both partners can feel seen, valued, emotionally safe, and connected.
Whether you are navigating recurring conflict, trust concerns, infidelity, intimacy challenges, life transitions, or simply want to strengthen your connection, therapy can provide a space to slow down, understand one another differently, repair what has been hurt, and intentionally choose what comes next.
