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.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Relationships and couples/marriage counseling is one of the main reasons people seek therapy. Attachment research is clear about our need as human to connect with and have a loving relationship with another that is mutual and reciprocal.

Theresa McCay Boutross
Marriage and Family Therapist, LCSW, CADC. CMFT
With over 25 years of experience as a couples and family therapist, I have witnessed countless marriages transform and thrive, often coming back from the brink of dissolution. The key factor that unites these couples is a shared willingness to grow rather than a stubborn willfulness. Individual growth fosters healthier functioning within the marriage, paving the way for renewed connection.
As a Gottman-trained therapist, I utilize evidence-based methods to help couples build strong foundations of friendship, intimacy, and trust. I also incorporate discernment counseling, a process designed to help couples experiencing ambivalence about their relationship. This approach allows partners to explore their feelings, identify the dynamics at play, and decide on the best path forward—whether it’s strengthening the relationship or considering separation.
I understand that many couples face complex challenges, such as infidelity, addiction, or personality disorders, which can strain relationships. However, through exploration of relational trauma and acceptance therapy, healing becomes possible. My training in Imago Relational Therapy, Gottman, Family Systems Therapy, and Complex Relational Trauma Treatment further enhances my ability to guide couples in fostering compassion, forgiveness, and understanding.
Together, we can navigate these challenges, helping you and your partner rebuild trust and understanding while creating a deeper, more fulfilling relationship. Let’s embark on this transformative journey toward lasting connection and resilience.

Natalie Campbell
Psychologist, PsyD; LLC
I love working with couples! In coupleship, I believe you need a large assortment of interventions to accomodate all the different personalities, but the one thing that remains consistent is 'Effective Communication.' LEARNING how to LISTEN, convey feelings, validate, and empathize. I use a combination of Imago, Emotional Focus Therapy, and some of the wonderful skills taught by the Gottmans.
