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.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I specialize in couples and relationship counseling and have worked with couples of all walks of life. We all know that relationships take some hard work sometimes to make sure we have a happy fullfilling relationship. Sometimes partners can resolve difficulties that arise on their own. But, sometimes, partners can get stuck in certain issues when regular resolution strategies they tend to use just are not working. Also, our lives are often in an ever changing state where new or different needs may come up for one or both partners. I work with couples, polycules, and all different structures of relationship and work from an integrative lens as every couple is unique and we may need to adjust the approach to help. I do however work a lot from Gottman therapy and also emotion focused therapy with my couples. Just a few more things... I'm poly-competent, trauma informed, kink affirming, and welcome all types of relationships.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Most couples arrive in therapy having the same argument they have been having for years, each convinced the other refuses to understand. They are usually both right. The impasse is not a failure of communication. It is the place where two differently organized selves meet and cannot find each other. The work is not about compromise or learning to fight fairly. It is about each person becoming visible to the other in a way that the relationship, up to now, has not been able to hold.
