Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
By the time they show up in my virtual office, many neurodiverse couples have had previous couple therapy experiences that did not go well, and are feeling increasingly stuck and hopeless about reconnecting in their relationship. If you are navigating ADHD, Autism, OCD, or other forms of neurodivergence in your relationship, you need an experienced couple therapist with a profound understanding of both the strengths and challenges of having brain-based differences, and how these differences can impact communication, energy management, nervous system activation, intimacy, and more. I would love to help you chart a different path for your neurodiverse relationship that allows you to interact with greater ease and connect more authentically.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
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. One of the most important is: 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?
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."
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). Unless each partner believes that the other one is committed, they will not feel safe to take risks in facing, addressing and working out the real, underlying issues that affect the relationship.

Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Most couples don't come to therapy when things first start going wrong. They come after years of the same argument, after the distance has grown too wide to ignore, after something broke and they're not sure it can be repaired. Wherever you are in that story, it's not too late to do something different.
As a Gottman Method certified therapist, I bring one of the most extensively researched approaches to couples work available. The Gottman Method isn't about talking in circles — it's about understanding the specific patterns that are eroding your relationship and replacing them with something that actually works. After more than 20 years of working with couples, I've seen what gets people stuck and what helps them find their way back to each other.
I work with couples navigating communication breakdown, emotional disconnection, rebuilding trust after betrayal, and the quiet drift that turns partners into strangers. I also offer premarital counseling for couples who want to build a strong foundation before they say yes.
Marriage is hard. But a struggling marriage isn't a failed one — it's one that needs skilled, intentional support. If you're both willing to show up, there's a lot that's possible.
Faith can be woven into our work for couples who want that. Telehealth sessions make it easy to attend together from home, on a schedule that fits your lives.
