Sheri Hardin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW-CP
Let’s face it…being in a committed long-term relationship can be hard. Arguments can be recurring. Distance can take up too much space between you to where you feel like nothing but roommates. I can help you reconnect and find the love for each other again, or help you resolve your disagreements, learn how to fight productively, or heal betrayals or resentments.

Having worked with hundreds of couples over the last 40 years, I have developed a set of beliefs or ideas which, if adopted, help to ensure that a relationship will last. Here is a list of them.
1) Arguing helps nothing, so don't do it.
I like to say that I never met the person who started the fight! When two people argue, each of them believes that he or she is merely reacting to something the other one did or said. Neither one believes that they started the fight; but it started somehow, didn't it? 2) It is better to be close than it is to be “right.”
Blaming each other for the argument is counterproductive. So is trying to change the other person's opinion. Most couples who argue, argue about whose perception is "correct," whose way of doing something is the "right" way, and so on. The only possible outcome of these arguments is that someone will be "right" and someone will be "wrong." Do you know anyone who enjoys being wrong? Most people will fight tooth and nail to avoid being "wrong." 3) Commitment is the Foundation of the Therapy.Commitment implies that you are in the relationship "come Hell or high water," barring certain behaviors your partner might do such as having an affair (although I have seen a number of relationships recover from those, too).

Dr. Kristyn Neckles
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in providing couples therapy services that are designed to heal, nurture, and revitalize your relationship. Whether you are experiencing conflicts, struggling with trust issues, or simply looking to enhance your emotional connection, as an experienced therapist, I am here to guide you on this journey of growth and rediscovery. My approach to working with those in a partnership emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and personal growth. Just like the metaphor of putting on your own oxygen mask first, I highlight the significance of taking care of oneself before attending to others. This approach acknowledges that individuals have control over themselves and their actions, and it encourages one to reflect on their emotional state and how they contribute to the relationship.
