6 Years Experience
Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Every couple faces challenges that can create distance instead of closeness, turning conversations into conflicts. I see the struggles behind silent dinners and unresolved disputes that linger like unwelcome guests. My couples therapy provides a bridge back to each other, offering tools for communication, understanding, and renewed connection in your relationship.

Chuck Gray, Ph.D.
Psychologist
Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR. I also offer counseling tools that I personally developed here in Houston.

Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Dr. Susan L. Waldo
Psychologist, PhD
One of my very favorite therapies is couples therapy. I so enjoy helping couple restore their love and relationship. I work with the couple (first) and with each individual when engaged couples work. I help each partner rediscover or get to know themselves and help them resolve pains from the past that may be negatively impacting their relationship. If either partner has suffered physical, sexual, or emotional abuse; neglect; has been a crime victim, or a victim of tragedy or natural disaster, I will help them resolve the impacts on their relationships. Work with the couple often includes work on communication, compatibility, having fun and dates, social time with others, kindnesses and responsiveness to one’s partner, level of engagement in the relationship, dependability, honesty, affection, sexual intimacy, children, finances, and in-laws. Also, any problems in the relationship are addressed including: drug/alcohol abuse, addictions of any kind (I.e. internet, sex, shopping, gambling), domestic violence (physical, sexual, or emotional), or other challenging behaviors.

Dr. Kristyn Neckles
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in providing couples therapy services that are designed to heal, nurture, and revitalize your relationship. Whether you are experiencing conflicts, struggling with trust issues, or simply looking to enhance your emotional connection, as an experienced therapist, I am here to guide you on this journey of growth and rediscovery. My approach to working with those in a partnership emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and personal growth. Just like the metaphor of putting on your own oxygen mask first, I highlight the significance of taking care of oneself before attending to others. This approach acknowledges that individuals have control over themselves and their actions, and it encourages one to reflect on their emotional state and how they contribute to the relationship.
