Finley Anderson
Therapist, LMFT
In couples work, I help partners slow down the patterns that are keeping them stuck. We explore what’s really happening underneath the conflict: the fears, the unmet needs, the old wounds each person brings to the relationship.

Ryan Shannon
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA, MA, MS
Relationship difficulties often involve more than communication alone. You may repeatedly choose unavailable partners, withdraw when someone gets close, become anxious when a relationship feels uncertain, avoid conflict, struggle to express your needs, or feel lonely even while partnered.
My approach is both insight-oriented and practical. Drawing from Adlerian and psychodynamic therapy, we may explore how childhood relationships, past rejection, family dynamics, and early beliefs about love and security continue to influence the way you connect with others. Understanding these patterns can help you recognize why certain relationships feel familiar, even when they are unhealthy or unfulfilling.
I also use CBT to help you examine assumptions about rejection, abandonment, trust, and self-worth. We may identify distorted thoughts, consider alternative interpretations, and work on responding to relationship stress with greater clarity rather than reacting from fear or past pain.
Therapy with me is honest and collaborative. I will validate your experience, but I may also gently challenge patterns that are contributing to conflict or disconnection. When appropriate, I may suggest behavioral missions, such as expressing a need directly, setting a boundary, initiating a difficult conversation, tolerating uncertainty, or allowing yourself to be more emotionally open.
My goal is to help you develop healthier relationship patterns, communicate more confidently, and become more comfortable with closeness, vulnerability, and conflict. Whether you are dating, partnered, recovering from a breakup, or trying to build more meaningful friendships, we can work toward relationships that feel more secure, mutual, and fulfilling.

Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Relationships can be confusing, difficult, and create intense feelings within us that are difficult to tolerate. The most common struggle people have in relationships is communicating effectively. This often stems from poor models or lack of guidance on how to understand, tolerate, and express negative or uncomfortable emotions.
Over the past 15 years of doing couples work, I have developed an approach that can help both partners feel comfortable, understood, and hopeful. My goal is to help you get to a place where you don't need me anymore and can successfully navigate what arises in your relationship. This often involves healing past hurts and more importantly involves learning effective ways to understand each other and build a strong partnership going forward.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
The greatest factor in the quality of your life is the quality of your relationships. When love breaks down, everything else feels shaky. The distance grows, conversations turn tense or quiet, and what once felt natural starts to feel like work. You may be stuck in cycles of arguing, avoidance, or wondering if trust can ever be restored.
At Rising Calm Center, we believe every couple can learn to love more deeply—with honesty, empathy, and grace. Our Christian counselors help you heal from the past, understand the present, and build a future marked by peace, purpose, and partnership.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.

• Strengthen friendship, intimacy, and shared spiritual connection
• Experience genuine joy and unity that lasts
Every conversation is grounded in empathy and truth. We help you slow down, listen well, and rediscover each other through the lens of grace.
Whether you’re newly married or years into a challenging season, there is hope. You can restore what’s been lost and create something stronger than before.
