Seth Frank
Marriage and Family Therapist, MMFT, M.Div, AMFT
When life feels heavy, whether from constant conflict with your partner, ADHD stress, or the weight of grief and anxiety, you don’t have to carry it alone. I provide a supportive space where couples can repair trust, reignite intimacy, and communicate safely, and where individuals can find calm, clarity, and confidence. Together, we’ll explore what matters most to you and create small, meaningful changes that bring relief and hope.
I work with couples feeling disconnected or struggling with sexual concerns, and with individuals facing ADHD, anxiety, grief, or stress. Therapy is a chance to feel truly heard while developing practical tools to create balance and strengthen the relationships that matter most.
Clients often share that they feel lighter, calmer, and more connected after sessions. Whether you’re seeking closeness with your partner, ways to manage ADHD, or support through loss, I’d be honored to help. Reach out today for a free 15-minute consultation and let’s begin.

Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Most couples who reach out to me have already tried talking it through, sometimes for years, and they're worn out from having the same fight in slightly different words. I work differently. Drawing on PACT, Somatic Experiencing, and EMDR, I help partners notice what's happening in their bodies and nervous systems when things go sideways, so change sticks where insight alone hasn't. I work with betrayal, gridlocked conflict, intimacy struggles, blended families, and couples preparing for marriage. If you're ready for something more than communication tips, I'd be glad to hear from you.
