Many of my clients start therapy due to relationship challenges. Together we identify what's coming up for you and how to address it moving forward. I have additional training in adult ADHD (and the unique challenges it poses to relationships). Additionally, I have advanced training in women's health (specifically PMS, PMDD, perimenopause, menopause, perinatal & postpartum) and nutritional mental health.

Practical Psychology, Inc.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Relationships can feel especially challenging when your brain works in ways that don’t quite match what others expect. At Dr. Shoup’s practice, you’ll find a therapeutic space built around how you think: full of empathy, structure, and insight. Because we understand how intense focus, rapid associations, or lingering disconnects impact connection, we tailor couples and relational work to translate misunderstandings into deeper understanding, and build communication strategies that really work for your unique style. With support built around your perspective, you can move from friction and confusion toward connection and clarity.

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.

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.

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.
