Banu Ibaoglu Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC, CIRT, CCH
I work with couples and individuals who are curious about their relationships. I am interested not only in what feels difficult, but in what those struggles may be revealing about who you are and how you want to live. I focus on how we love, how we defend against love, and what we long for when we cannot find our way back to each other. These patterns shape both our partnerships and our way of being in the world. Most conflicts that bring people to therapy nearly always point toward something that needs attention, a place where growth is trying to happen.
Relationships are living fields. They carry our histories, our cultural inheritances, and our unfinished emotional stories, but they also carry possibility. This is true of the relationships we have with others and the relationship we have with ourselves. Many of the individuals I work with feel a gap between their current reality and the life they sense is possible but have not yet been able to inhabit. I do not see this as pathology. It often signals that your development is asking for attention.
I am a clinical trainer and supervisor in Imago Relationship Therapy and have over twenty years of experience working across cultures and contexts. My orientation is dialogical, experiential, and psychodynamic. In sessions, I integrate somatic awareness and close attention to what unfolds in real time, such as shifts in tone, subtle contractions, or moments of distance. We slow these down so that reactions can become meaningful rather than automatic. We also make plenty of room for laughter. I find that humor is often the first sign of a pattern breaking, a way to hold the absurdity of the human experience while moving toward something more vital.
I work online with U.S. and international clients, including cross-cultural couples and expats navigating identity shifts and displacement. Culture, migration, and family history leave deep imprints on how we attach and how we imagine intimacy. These layers are always part of our conversation.
Therapy with me is steady, engaged, and deeply reflective. I trust that individuals and relationships carry an inner movement toward aliveness. My role is to help you recognize it, support it, and allow it to shape how you live, both together and individually.
If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out to schedule an initial consultation.

Sarah Eisenhauer Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LCPC, LPC, AADC
I work with adults using a psychodynamic, depth approach (looking at how the past effects the present and considering root causes, not just symptoms), while also taking into account thoughts and behaviors (CBT & DBT) in order to help individuals make change. I work with individuals who are experiencing effects from trauma, who want to improve their relationships, further explore themselves and the roles they play in their world, women’s issues, anxiety, and life transitions. I also offer Ketamine Assisted Therapy for appropriate individuals who may be looking to deepen their work.
Our relationship provides a safe, authentic and nonjudgmental place for you to explore reactions, thoughts, and feelings about relationships and experiences in your life, and your place within this system. I believe that each individual has a unique view of the world based on their personal experiences, and we incorporate this as we work toward your goals.

Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
My therapy is informed by my education, training, personal therapy, and life experiences. My experience doing psychotherapy and being in therapy myself has tauht me that it is important for us to understand how our past history affects our current lives. I am also a cancer-survivor and I have empathy, understanding, and guidance for people going through difficult life circumstances.

Considering Divorce? Please call me before you call an attorney! What can seem like you're heading for a break up can be a breakthrough to a deeper connection; despite infidelity, loss of a child or lack of intimacy. You are perhaps feeling shame or anger and you're anxious to take the first step; yet you want to try everything for yourself and your family. Maybe you've tried other methods such as marriage counseling to no avail. Please call for a free consult! Or you're looking to rebuild after a breakup and feel like you've lost yourself. My premarital work helps curb divorce stats! Prefer a 100% confidential
therapeutic process from the start? Most relationship issues do not involve a mental health diagnosis. Rather, you’ve adapted to and from broken models. Through relationship education you will learn new models and tools to equip yourself for the relationship you want with yourself or someone else.
