Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships are central to knowing who we are and thus have an enormous impact on our mental health. We often downplay to ourselves that frequent or underlying problems in our relationships are "enough" to feel anxious, sad, or angry about. As a result we often misplace the source of distress solely upon personal failings. Much of my work focuses on helping you clarify what you want and need relationally, working out what is making it hard to communicate those wants and needs, and empowering you to try some new things with your loved ones.

Hutch Wheless
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
I work with couples to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen connection. Many couples come in feeling stuck in recurring patterns of conflict, miscommunication, or emotional distance, and together we identify what’s driving those cycles and how to shift them. My approach is active and structured, helping both partners better understand themselves and each other while developing practical skills they can use outside of sessions. The goal is to create a more stable, connected, and collaborative relationship where both people feel heard and supported.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Relationships are special and take considerable work. It doesn't matter if you are seeking a therapist to help you early in your relationship before "stuff happens" or are trying to back up and address longer standing patterns, I can help you be a strong "Us". When working with relationships we are going to talk about ways to make you a team and help you improve the ways you talk with each other to increase your understanding. The Gottman's talk about "Masters" and "Disasters" - I can help you be the former.

Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Relationships can become stuck in painful cycles of conflict, disconnection, defensiveness, or repeated misunderstandings. I work with couples to identify the patterns underneath their conflicts, communicate more effectively, rebuild emotional connection, and address concerns such as trust, intimacy, life transitions, and differing needs within the relationship.

Winston-Salem is home to Wake Forest University School of Medicine and Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist — one of the most significant academic medical centers in the Southeast — and this concentration of medical training and research deeply shapes the quality and sophistication of its mental health clinical community. The city's tobacco heritage — long anchored by R.J. Reynolds, which remains headquartered in the city — has given way to a growing medical, technology, and arts economy, and therapists frequently work with the identity transitions of a workforce navigating this shift. The city has a large Black community with deep historical roots in the Piedmont Triad, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma and intergenerational resilience are well represented. Winston-Salem's arts and innovation culture supports strong demand for therapists experienced with creative identity and career-related stress.
