Stephanie Marks
Hypnotherapist, MA
Do you feel frustrated and stuck in patterns of relating with your partner and want to find greater satisfaction in your significant relationships? The quality of our relationships occupy a central importance in our lives and deeply affect our states of being and how we experience ourselves in the world. From the moment we are conceived we share life with another and from there on all our subsequent relationships are shaped by these early relating experiences. Examining and delving deeply into our patterns of relating can free us from the familiar constraints of who we identity as being in the context of others and our relationship to ourselves. All of our relationships stimulate many feelings and often old hurts and patterns of relating to others that can often be difficult to navigate. I feel confident that I can help you to find a life that is filled with greater satisfaction, emotional stability and improved relationships. In our work together, we will examine patterns of relating that have become outdated and no longer serve the same function as they used to and aim towards finding new ways of being and relating to bring about more harmony in your life and relationships. I offer therapy to couples, married and not-married and anyone looking to repair any relationship.

Daniel Minuchin
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A, LMFT
Problems in relationships are one of the major issues that impact on people’s lives. Much of my work is with couples. Just having a place to talk about issues with a third person present is helpful. It can allow people to discuss difficult issues without it becoming conflictual. Couples are often caught in repetitive patterns, and have stopped listening to each other. Couples therapy can help people to identify and modify those patterns . It can also help people to understand how their different upbringings inform some of the difference# that lead to conflict. And help people to see how they have misinterpreted their partners behavior.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
*Free Consultation* Relationships are hard work and there is no perfect couple or perfect relationship. All healthy and sustainable relationships require some extra attention and tweaking from time to time, and therapy can be a great resource for couples going through a difficult time or just generally seeking feedback and support. I use the Gottman Method for Couples, which focuses on improving communication, increasing gratitude and affection, removing any barriers that stand in the way of deeper connection and intimacy, and creating more empathy and understanding between partners and the relationship as a whole. I love connecting with couples and helping them on their journey to a healthy and meaningful partnership that can survive and thrive amidst the difficulties that life inevitably throws our way.

Lotoya Charles
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, Coach, Hypnotherapist, Healer
Healthy, happy relationships are an essential part of our lives. We feel a sense of fulfillment when we have a sense of love and connection to others. Unfortunately, many of us did not have healthy, happy relationships modeled to us growing up, making it difficult for us to cultivate those relationships for ourselves. And regardless of how hard we try, we may continue to repeat the same cycles and patterns.
Whether you're dealing with issues around trust, communication, self-esteem, intimacy, or boundaries, our work together will help you gain insight into your most common relationship patterns and provide you with the tools to create healthier, more fulfilling relationships in all areas of your life.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I have over a decade of expertise in conceptualizing and treating struggling interpersonal and intimate relationships. Through a honed lens of social constructionism, I focus on understanding and meeting the unique needs, meanings, and values of each relationship. Every relationship is unlike any other. This stance promotes authentic curiosity and explores how we make meaning together. Meaning and action are closely interwoven in our relationships, and each member of the relational context influences the culture and landscape of the interpersonal experiences within. In therapy, we collaborate in creating a new way of relating that allows the rediscovery of empathy for each other in these contexts, and resolves troubling patterns of communication and differences in expectations that negatively impact understanding, connection, and value...
I believe relationships and context matter. Research shows that relationship distress causes problems in mental health, work, children, and even your own physical health. Yet, healthy relationships protect you from stress and help you thrive.
I believe in using relationship therapy that works. I practice evidence-based therapy, which means I use therapeutic practices that have been studied and supported by empirical research studies.
I work with clients to improve their interpersonal functioning both within relational contexts (i.e., couples, families), as well as with individuals who would like to focus on their past, present, and future interpersonal interactions. Clients explore the relational impacts of experiences such as rejection sensitivity, feelings of codependency, attachment concerns, life transitions, divorce, trust, shame, self-esteem, assertiveness, and the impact of dating in the digital-age (i.e., feeling ignored, insecure, ghosting, text communications).
Unfortunately, most people don't have access to effective help for their relationships nor have they been taught what healthy relationships and communication look like. Because of this, I also prioritize increasing access to couple therapy by offering telehealth, evening and weekend scheduling, and lower-cost options that are tailored to Client needs and resources.
I strive to understand your goals, help you communicate and form these goals explicitly, and reach them effectively. I have worked with couples, families, parents, Veterans, adolescents, and individuals on strengthening their relationships and interpersonal skills. I have expertise in working with LGBTQIA+ relationships, sex therapy, and increasing physical and emotional intimacy between partners who seek nonjudgmental therapeutic space and openness to non-traditional relationships (i.e., polyamory, open relationships, play partners, swingers, friends with benefits (FWBs), BDSM etc.). I work with couples/relationships and individuals addressing pornography consumption, kink, and all manner of consensual play. (See additional relational competencies in the ‘diversity’ sections and relationship based ‘services.’) I often employ a mixture of Integrative Behavioral Couples Therapy and Emotion Focused Couples Therapy when working with intimate partners. I have an extensive background in Family Systems modalities as well, including Gottman Method, Structural Family Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Family Systems, and others.
There are several forms of relational therapy you can engage in:
Couple Therapy and Therapy with Romantic Partners
Family Therapy
Therapy for Friends or Coworkers
Relationship Therapy for Individuals (just you!)
Relationship Education
Relationship Coaching (for just you or you and your partner(s))
Premarital Coaching
