Nicole Wilkerson
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LMHCA
I support individuals who want to understand relationship patterns, communicate their needs, or feel clearer about boundaries and decisions. You may be navigating conflict, disconnection, trust concerns, or a changing relationship. Our work focuses on your experience and the choices within your control. Although this directory uses a relationship and marriage category, my current services are individual counseling rather than couples therapy.

Kate Dufek
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LMHC
My couples work is informed by PACT (psychobiological approach to couples therapy.) This approach takes into account developmental history, attachment, neuroscience, and object relations. It is highly interactive, and geared towards cultivating a sturdier, more secure relationship.

Mr. Robert Hirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
I have helped hundreds of couples. It is clear to me that it is not sufficient to simply want to love someone, each partner must be committed to growing and understanding themselves so that their dysfunctional patterns of communicating and living don't continue to sabotage the relationship. I help partners see themselves more clearly and find the motivation and strength to endure the difficulty of rebuilding trust and opening their hearts fully again to their partner.

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.

Yukiko K Hartman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, LPCC, LMHC
Why are relationships so sweet some time and so difficult other time? It's because we have emotional connection with our loved ones. In fact, building close relationship and maintaining it require a lot of awareness of what's happening in you and your partner, and between two of you. Also, knowing how to maintain emotional connection and how to repair the connection quickly when it's broken is the key for you to keep your important relationship going. In my therapy, we will look into your relationship to see what is not working and how it has affected you and your partner. I will introduce to you many elements of healthy relationship and have you learn new skills and behaviors. Relationship issues are often complicated and take time before you see the improvement. So, you may need to commit to therapy, but I believe it is worth your time and effort if you think your relationship is important for you.

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.

Vanessa Hooper
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, PMH-C
I work with couples across many relationship structures, monogamous, ethically non-
monogamous, polyamorous, and cross-cultural pairings on communication, trust, and
connection. Using discernment counseling when needed, I help you get clarity on where the relationship stands and where you want it to go.

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.
