Maria Barber
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I specialize in helping couples understand the deeper patterns that shape their relationship—why you get stuck in the same arguments, why distance grows even when you care deeply, and how old protective strategies show up between you. My work is grounded, structured, and emotionally attuned, offering a calm space where both partners feel seen and supported.
Whether you’re navigating recurring conflict, communication breakdowns, emotional disconnection, or a major turning point in your relationship, I help you slow down, understand what’s really happening beneath the surface, and build new ways of relating that feel more connected and sustainable.
I offer weekly couples therapy, extended sessions for more spacious work, and private couples intensives for partners who want focused, accelerated progress. My approach blends Imago Relationship Therapy with Bowen and other systemic models, helping you move from reactive cycles into more conscious, compassionate connection.
If you’re ready to strengthen your relationship, repair what’s been hurt, or build a healthier foundation for the future, I provide a steady, supportive space for meaningful change.

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.

Cynthia Leslie
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, MA, CPRS
Marriage is God’s first covenant with man, but it can come with its own set of challenges. Knowing God’s will for marriage can help bring harmony into the relationship. Having a toolbox to use can be invaluable to couples.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
We all bring with us old patterns, history, and sometimes trauma that interfere with good communication and conflict resolution in our current relationship. Counseling helps us understand ourselves and our partners better, so we can make better choices about how to cope as a team. I use psychodynamic and family-systems approaches to help partners listen, empathize, and create new ways of resolving problems that work best for them, rather than imposing a predetermined, one-size-fits-all method. I can also help those who are looking for support ending a relationship in a minimally-damaging way. Queer and poly affirming.

Psychologist, PhD
I have years of specialized training, research, and clinical experience in working with couples. I have conducted and published research on couples therapy, relationship satisfaction, and attachment issues, and have put much of this expertise into practice with couples I have worked with.
