Dr. Rosy Saenz-Sierzega
Psychologist, PhD, MA, NBCC
Relationships can get stuck in patterns of arguing, avoiding, resentment, poor communication, or simply feeling disconnected from one another. I work with couples to identify what is actually causing the conflict, improve communication, address underlying issues, and develop healthier ways of interacting. I am direct with both partners and will point out patterns that may be contributing to the problem while helping each person understand the other’s perspective. Whether you're trying to strengthen a good relationship, work through a major conflict, rebuild trust, or determine whether the relationship can move forward, therapy can help you figure out what needs to change and what steps to take next.

Sheila Cohen Furr, PhD
Psychologist, PhD, ABN, ACP
The best of relationships has intermittent challenges and bumps in the road. Many times, if not most of the time, it is worth working hard to make it better and smooth out the bumps. Usually communication is the key, that is learning how to talk without blaming and shaming and learning how to listen and really hear what is being said without getting defensive. Hopelessness can frequently be addressed and developing reasonable expectations of yourself and your partner can lead to a very gratifying relationship. Working together can strengthen the good in the relationship and mitigate the disappointments

Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
When a relationship is struggling, it can feel like you and your partner are trapped in the exact same argument over and over again, leaving both of you feeling lonely, frustrated, and misunderstood. I specialize in helping couples break out of these destructive communication ruts and rediscover a sense of warmth, safety, and mutual respect. Utilizing the evidence-based Gottman Method Couples Therapy, I provide concrete, practical tools to help you manage conflict constructively, rebuild emotional intimacy, and deepen your friendship. Additionally, my background in trauma and Internal Family Systems (IFS) allows us to compassionately look at how individual past wounds might be showing up in your marriage today. Whether you are navigating a major life transition, recovering from a breach of trust, or simply want to strengthen your bond, we will work together to build a resilient, lasting partnership.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships are central to knowing who we are and thus have an enormous impact on our mental health. We often downplay to ourselves that frequent or underlying problems in our relationships are "enough" to feel anxious, sad, or angry about. As a result we often misplace the source of distress solely upon personal failings. Much of my work focuses on helping you clarify what you want and need relationally, working out what is making it hard to communicate those wants and needs, and empowering you to try some new things with your loved ones.
