Dr. Shelley Sommerfeldt
Psychologist, Psy.D.
If you’re feeling disconnected, overwhelmed by conflict, or just uncertain about the future of your marriage, relationship counseling can provide a safe space to rebuild trust, improve communication, and rediscover the love that brought you together. Relationship work is a core specialty of my practice, where I help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and deepen intimacy. Through a compassionate and practical skill-building approach, I guide partners in resolving conflicts and creating a stronger, more fulfilling partnership grounded in understanding and mutual respect.

Janice Cuaresma
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LCMHCA, NCC
I exclusively use the Gottman Method when working with couples. The initial intake with the couple together and with each individual separately allows me to learn about the current dynamics of the relationship and past experiences that each person brings. Couples learn proven methods to work through healthy arguments, communicate better, develop intimacy, and rebuild trust within the relationship.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Relationships are often where our deepest patterns show up—how we communicate, how we handle conflict, how we give and receive care, and how we navigate closeness and space. Whether you’re feeling disconnected, stuck in repeated arguments, trying to rebuild trust, or wanting to strengthen an already solid relationship, it can be hard to step outside of the patterns you’re in. Add in cultural expectations about what relationships “should” look like, and it can get even harder to figure out what actually works for you.
At Nour Counseling, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to relationships. We work with you (and your partner[s], if applicable) to understand the dynamics at play and actively build more effective ways of communicating, repairing, and connecting. This includes identifying patterns, strengthening emotional awareness, and creating structures that support the relationship you actually want—not just what’s been modeled or expected. We also offer pre-marital and pre–long-term commitment counseling, helping you have the conversations that matter before taking that next step.
We are explicitly affirming of diverse relationship structures, including non-monogamy and polyamory, and we are kink-affirming in our work. We understand these are not interchangeable, and we approach each with respect, clarity, and without pathologizing. This is collaborative, honest work focused on helping your relationship feel more intentional, more connected, and more aligned with your values.
