Ellen S Leventhal
Marriage and Family Therapist, MEd, MA, LMFT
We all know romantic relationships are hard work. Like cars, they require regular maintenance to keep them running well. If there is a problem, it’s best to have it repaired right away to avoid further complications down the road.
Often we can do some of the basic maintenance and repairs ourselves. Other times, despite our best efforts, we need to rely on a professional to take a look and give us a hand.
It is interesting how easily and quickly we take such steps to repair or prevent damage to our vehicles. But when it comes to our relationships, we often avoid taking action until the situation has become much more serious.
Unfortunately, many couples try couples therapy when a significant amount of damage has already been done. Maladaptive relational patterns have become entrenched, the emotional bond between partners has been severely weakened and there is a high level of resentment due to unresolved past conflicts.

Laurel Shortell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with partners in relationships of all configurations, including couples and multi-partner relationships, and I have experience supporting relationships where one or more partners is on the autism spectrum. My approach respects each person’s perspective while helping partners strengthen communication, connection, and mutual understanding.

Rachel J Fischer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
It can be hard to manage feelings that come up towards your partner, and you may find yourself feeling alone and unable to talk to others about your concerns. You may notice that you are attracted to similar types of partners, or that you have similar feelings/behaviors in relationships. Using an insight-oriented ("psychodynamic") and relational approach to therapy, I provide a warm and nonjudgmental space to explore your thoughts/feelings/experiences, and to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships so that you can embrace a more fulfilling life. Please note that I only meet one-on-one with individuals to talk about their relationship issues, and don't do couples therapy.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Effective communication is essential for healthy relationships, and I help couples develop and refine their communication skills. I teach couples active listening techniques, assertiveness skills, and strategies for expressing thoughts and feelings in a constructive manner. By improving communication, couples can better understand each other's perspectives, resolve conflicts more effectively, and strengthen their emotional connection.
