Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
I offer strengths-based, topic-focused therapy for couples with a generally stable relationship foundation. This work can help partners understand one another more deeply, communicate more clearly about the topic, prepare thoughtfully for challenges, and approach important decisions with greater intentionality. Although I remain attentive to the broader context of your relationship, the specific area bringing you to therapy will remain the primary focus. If you are seeking therapy centered on the relationship as a whole or on concerns spanning multiple areas, comprehensive couples therapy with another provider may be a better fit.
My couples work is limited to three areas:
**Pre-marital or pre-commitment therapy** offers a guided, semi-structured opportunity to prepare for a life together. We may explore communication and conflict, trust and commitment, intimacy, values and expectations, identities and cultures, family and community, finances, careers, work-life balance, and your shared goals and vision for the relationship.
**Financial therapy for couples** focuses on the psychological, emotional, relational, and cultural dimensions of money. Our work may involve understanding each partner’s money history and beliefs, communicating more openly about finances, navigating differences in values or risk tolerance, addressing financial anxiety or avoidance, and approaching shared decisions more collaboratively and intentionally. This service is psychotherapy rather than financial planning or advising.
**LGBTQ+ family-building therapy for couples** supports partners who share a commitment to pursuing parenthood and want help choosing among or navigating possible paths to building their family. This may include assisted reproduction, surrogacy or gestational carrier arrangements, adoption, or other paths to parenthood. Therapy can help you clarify values and priorities, communicate about genetic or gestational connections and family roles, manage medical, legal, logistical, emotional, and financial demands, and navigate uncertainty or setbacks together. This is not discernment therapy focused on whether to become parents.
Across all three services, the goal is to help you engage the topic as a team while making room for each partner’s experiences, needs, values, identities, and perspectives.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
I specialize in relationship and marriage counseling by providing couples with a safe, empathetic space to address communication issues, conflict resolution, and emotional intimacy. My approach is grounded in understanding the dynamics at play within relationships, particularly the intersection of mental health and relational challenges. Whether navigating long-term struggles, transitions, or healing from past wounds, I help couples rebuild trust, strengthen their connection, and develop healthier ways of relating to one another. Through evidence-based techniques and a compassionate, nonjudgmental approach, I empower couples to grow together and create lasting, meaningful change in their relationships.

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!

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Communication difficulties are often at the center of relational conflict; partners and family members may feel missed, disconnected, unheard, and misunderstood. Couples sessions are geared toward reworking the communication and interaction patterns that may have become ingrained in your partnership or family unit - to assist in rebuilding trust, connection, and cohesion. Learning about ourselves, the ways we show up in our relationships, and our response tendencies can shed important light on these patterns, the relational needs that are unmet within them, and ways to step outside of them. One of the most important first steps in our work together is to begin seeing these overarching patterns as the reasons for pain, rather than treating the pain as being the fault of an individual partner or family member.
