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.

The Becoming Therapy Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LMFT
Motherhood, life transitions, and the cumulative weight of stress can quietly erode even the strongest relationships. We support women and couples navigating communication breakdowns, disconnection, resentment, intimacy struggles, and the shifting dynamics that come with major life changes. Our approach is honest, attuned, and grounded in respect for both partners. Healthy relationships don't happen by accident. They're built with intention, and we can help with that work.
