Tacoma Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Every relationship hits seasons that feel harder than expected. The distance that grows quietly over time. The same argument that never quite resolves. The sense that you're living parallel lives instead of a shared one.
Struggling in a relationship doesn't mean it's broken. It often means something needs attention that hasn't had space to be heard yet.
TWC's own Yvonne Roberto works with couples and individuals navigating relationship challenges — communication patterns, trust, intimacy, conflict, and the kind of disconnection that builds slowly and hurts deeply. Yvonne brings warmth, clinical skill, and a genuine belief that relationships can heal when both people are willing to do the work.
If your relationship feels stuck, strained, or like it's lost something you want back — this is a place to start.
If this resonates, we'd love to support you.

Dr. Danielle Watkins at Sound Wellness Counseling PLLC
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LMFT, LMHC, NCC, PMH-C
When working with couples in relationship and marriage counseling, I focus on helping couples strengthen their connection, improve communication, and navigate conflicts or life challenges together. This work provides a safe space to explore patterns in the relationship, address misunderstandings, rebuild trust, and deepen emotional intimacy. Counselors support couples in developing effective problem-solving skills, setting healthy boundaries, and fostering mutual understanding. The goal is to help partners create a more satisfying, balanced, and resilient relationship, whether working through challenges or enhancing an already strong bond.

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.

Morgan Desai
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMFTA
It doesn't matter how long you've been together, every couple experiences their ups and downs and sometimes needs a little extra support. Couples often face challenges with communication, unresolved conflicts, and stress from life events (parenting decisions, career changes, losing loved ones, etc.). On top of that, blending families and navigating differing cultural backgrounds can also add complexity to relationships.
We all have perspectives and experiences that we bring with us to our relationships and sometimes it can be challenging to express our thoughts and needs to our partners. In couple's therapy, we'll work together to identify cycles contributing to tension and conflict, strengthen positive and healthy communication, foster connection, and rebuild trust.

Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Relationship therapy gets a lot more interesting, and a lot more useful, when the therapist isn't quietly assuming your relationship should look a certain way. I work with couples, polycules, and relationships of all configurations: monogamous, non-monogamous, polyamorous, relationship-anarchist, kinky, queer, and everything in between. I'm non-monogamous and kink-informed myself, so your structure is safe here. We'll actually get to the work: communication patterns, repair after rupture, intimacy, trust, the ways your individual histories show up between you. I draw from the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy, and I bring an affirming, complexity-honoring lens to every relationship I work with. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.
