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.

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.

Larry Nussbaum, LIFE JOURNEY CENTEER
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LSCSW, LISCW
My graduate school specialty was "Services to Families and Children." Since then I have worked many years in marriage counseling, couple counseling, and with the delicate balance that needs to happen to keep a relationship vital and healthy. My work is based on a "Family Systems" approach that includes many different theories because relationships can be very complicated.
