Willow & Arbor, PLLC
Counselor/Therapist
Relationships are a part of life but not something most of us receive any guidance or education in. Many people have any idea of the type of marriage they would like but no actual experience or example of how to make that work. Therapy can help you identify your personal and joint values and create the narrative of the relationship you want. Therapy can also help you identify stumbling blocks to that narrative and how to overcome them from an authentic and genuine place rather than avoidance. Many people believe "improved communication" is the key to fixing a marriage, and while this is important I also find that many couples communicate a lot but struggle with empathy, emotion tolerance, perspective taking, and follow through. Lastly, not all relationships are meant to last and some remain together out of fear of divorce or being alone. We can process this possiblity if it applies to your relationship and navigate it together.

Carrie Marchant LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I understand that each relationship is distinct. I aim to be a safe space for couples to work through tough times while providing guidance when needed. I have a background in social work and have worked with many couples in a family setting before transitioning to a therapist role.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Relationships and couples/marriage counseling is one of the main reasons people seek therapy. Attachment research is clear about our need as human to connect with and have a loving relationship with another that is mutual and reciprocal.

James Parker
Psychologist, PhD
In my experience, there are two vital things to truly understand when a relationship is not going as you would like. First, the communication is likely not where it needs to be. The implicit has to be made explicit so that there is little or no room for misunderstandings or misinterpretations to occur. Second, needs need to be known and conveyed to one another. If needs were respected and being met, things would likely be going well. Those two principles are essential to make sense of when difficulty arises in a relationship with a significant other. If addressing both of those does not improve the dynamic, then the work becomes understanding what emotional things are getting in the way of needs being known and communicated.
