Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Relationships can become stuck in painful patterns even when both people care deeply about making things work. I help couples understand the dynamics beneath recurring conflict, improve communication and intimacy, rebuild trust, and develop healthier ways of connecting. My approach is collaborative and nonjudgmental, with room for honest conversations about attachment, sexuality, desire, boundaries, infidelity, and changing needs. I work with both traditional and nontraditional relationship structures, focusing not on what a relationship is “supposed” to look like, but on helping you build one that works for the people actually in it.

Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Relationships can become stuck in painful cycles of conflict, disconnection, defensiveness, or repeated misunderstandings. I work with couples to identify the patterns underneath their conflicts, communicate more effectively, rebuild emotional connection, and address concerns such as trust, intimacy, life transitions, and differing needs within the relationship.

Debbie Allen, A Safe Place To Share
Therapist, Betrayal Trauma Therapist & Coach, Sex & Porn Addiction Therapist & Coach. Visit my website 👇
Relationships can be deeply impacted by infidelity, betrayal, pornography, sex addiction, compulsive sexual behaviors, emotional disconnection, and loss of trust. I help couples navigate these difficult relationship challenges through confidential, compassionate, and nonjudgmental marriage and couples support
My work includes infidelity recovery, betrayal recovery, betrayal trauma, trust issues, intimacy problems, sexual relationship concerns, pornography use, porn addiction, sex addiction, and problematic or compulsive sexual behaviors. Whether you are trying to save your marriage after an affair, rebuild trust following betrayal, or address the impact of pornography or sexual compulsivity, A Safe Place To Share provides a structured space to understand what happened and determine how to move forward.
For couples affected by infidelity or betrayal, we can address anger, grief, anxiety, insecurity, shame, resentment, loss of trust, and the challenges of restoring emotional and physical intimacy. When porn addiction, sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior affects a relationship, both partners may need support, the partner struggling with the behavior may experience shame, secrecy, and guilt, while the betrayed partner may experience trauma, emotional distress, loss of safety, and difficulty trusting again.
Together, we can work toward rebuilding trust, improving communication, repairing emotional and physical intimacy, establishing healthy boundaries, understanding relationship patterns, and creating meaningful change. My goal is to help couples create relationships that are healthier, safer, more honest, and more connected.
If your marriage or relationship has been affected by an affair, infidelity, betrayal, pornography, sex addiction, or compulsive sexual behavior, A Safe Place To Share can help you understand the path forward and determine what healing and a healthier relationship can look like.

Chuck Gray, Ph.D.
Psychologist
Rather than limit counseling to only one approach, I offer my clients what I think is best specifically for them from a wide array of expert approaches in my marriage and other counseling. In addition to leading seminars to train other professionals in marriage counseling, I have benefited by receiving extensive professional training from most of the leading marriage counseling experts in the country, including but not limited to John Gottman, Susan Johnson, John Gray, Harville Hendrix, Virginia Satyr, Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson, Gary Brainard, Frank Pittman, Shirley Glass, Janice Abrahms Spring, and Neil Jacobson. In conducting counseling, I am fortunate to be able to choose from numerous resources including principles from Gottman's research, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mars & Venus Counseling, Imago Therapy, Positive Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Rogerian Therapy, Integrative Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Techniques, NLP, and EMDR. I also offer counseling tools that I personally developed here in Houston.
