Marriage is God’s first covenant with man, but it can come with its own set of challenges. Knowing God’s will for marriage can help bring harmony into the relationship. Having a toolbox to use can be invaluable to couples.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with couples at all stages of their relationships, from those looking to deepen connection to those navigating significant strain or considering major decisions about the future. Relationships can be both deeply fulfilling and profoundly challenging, and many couples find themselves stuck in patterns of miscommunication, disconnection, or recurring conflict.
My approach is active, direct, and grounded in helping both partners better understand not only each other, but their own contributions to the dynamic. I focus on identifying patterns, improving communication, and fostering greater emotional awareness and accountability within the relationship.
I also draw from structured approaches, including discernment counseling when one partner feels uncertain about whether to stay or leave, creating space for thoughtful, intentional decision-making.
The goal is not simply to reduce conflict, but to help couples build more meaningful, resilient, and satisfying ways of relating—whether that leads to strengthening the relationship or gaining clarity about next steps.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
Even strong relationships can get stuck. You may find yourselves having the same argument on repeat, feeling more like roommates than partners, or struggling to communicate without shutting down or blowing up. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, healing from a rupture, or simply trying to feel closer again, relationship counseling can help.
At The Momentum Practice, I work with couples and individuals to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, deepen emotional connection, and move through conflict with more care and clarity. I also offer pre-marital counseling to support couples in building a strong foundation for partnership. I welcome all relationship structures—married, partnered, dating, LGBTQ+, monogamous, poly, or somewhere in between—and provide a nonjudgmental space for the real-life complexities of love, including identity shifts, parenting stress, and differing needs for closeness and independence.
My work is informed by Gottman principles, Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT), and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), all grounded in practical, evidence-based tools. I also specialize in supporting neurodivergent couples and relationships where one or both partners are navigating ADHD or anxiety. Together, we’ll uncover patterns that keep you feeling disconnected, strengthen your relational resilience, and build tools that support both connection and self-understanding.
With over 15 years of experience, I offer a collaborative, compassionate space where both partners can feel seen, supported, and equipped—whether you're working to reconnect or seeking clarity about your next steps. Let’s work together to move your relationship toward more meaning, ease, and connection. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!
