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.

Weston Pew
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LCPC
Trauma, attachment issues, and old patterns can create emotional disconnection and unresolved conflict in relationships, leaving couples feeling lost or distant. Choosing to seek therapy is a powerful commitment to healing, growth, and change. My approach to couples therapy involves three phases: Assessment, Exploration, and Embodiment. In the Assessment phase, we understand the current state of your relationship and uncover root causes. The Exploration phase dives deeper into past wounds, patterns, and beliefs to unlock new insights, while the Embodiment phase focuses on integrating changes into your daily lives for lasting transformation. My integrative approach addresses the mind, body, heart, and soul, helping you heal, rebuild trust, deepen intimacy, and create a stronger, more fulfilling connection.

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.

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.

Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Relationships often bring both deep connection and deep activation. Even in loving partnerships, it is common for couples to find themselves stuck in repeating patterns of conflict, distance, miscommunication, or emotional disconnection that can feel difficult to shift on their own.
In therapy, we slow down these patterns and begin to understand what is happening beneath the surface of interaction. From a psychodynamic and attachment-based perspective, we explore how each partner’s early relational experiences, protective strategies, and emotional needs are shaping the dynamic in the present.
Rather than focusing only on communication skills or surface-level conflict resolution, this work supports a deeper understanding of the emotional cycles that keep couples stuck — including pursuit and withdrawal patterns, sensitivity to rejection, shutdown responses, and unmet needs for safety, closeness, and autonomy.
Using a trauma-informed and Focusing-Oriented approach, we also pay attention to the body-based experience of relationship moments. The “felt sense” can reveal important information about what is happening internally during conflict or disconnection, often before it can be fully put into words. Learning to notice and stay with these internal signals can create more choice, regulation, and empathy in real time.
Therapy supports partners in developing the capacity to stay present with themselves and each other, even in moments of discomfort. This includes increasing emotional awareness, strengthening repair after conflict, and building more secure and responsive connection patterns over time.
Carey Counseling offers support for individuals navigating relational challenges as well as partners in both traditional and non-traditional relationship structures, including polyamorous and consensual non-monogamous relationships.
This work is especially supportive for couples who feel stuck in repetitive cycles, emotionally disconnected, or unsure how to reconnect after rupture — and who are seeking a deeper, more embodied way of understanding and transforming their relationship patterns.
