Shana Burns, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist
Relationships can be and often are painful, despite their necessity and profound healing potential. We start from the source—our relationship to our self as the gauge for knowing if we feel served by or depleted by another or others. The unpredictability of life can at times strain the bonds we share and it can be hard to see our part in the co-creation of a relational dynamic. Direct communication to include healthy boundary setting is no small feat. Expressing our needs clearly and being heard by those closest to us can feel daunting. We are here to be a neutral mirror and help you to navigate the complexities of a myriad of different kinds of relationships.

TyaCamellia (Tya) Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
When hearts are involved, things can get complicated! My goal in couples therapy is to work with couples as they gain insight into how they emotionally engage with one another, develop healthier patterns of interaction, and increase their emotional connectedness with their partner.
It’s hard to reconnect when past pains still hurt. Talking leads to arguing, and arguing leads to avoiding. You feel more like roommates than lovers, and the relationship has turned into a real relationsh*t.
You deserve a relationship filled with love, respect, fun and passion!
Logic says one thing, and our emotions say another. Some days feel okay, while others feel hopeless. You aren’t as happy as you used to be, or could be. You’ve had the same argument over-and-over, and still haven’t found a solution. You’re looking for a way out, or a way through. You feel lonely instead of loved. You’re grieving the relationship you thought you would have.
I Will Help You:
Navigate tough conversations.
Gain clarity on the root of your conflict that’s keeping you stuck.
Develop healthier patterns of interaction.
Rebuild friendship and reignite passion.
Heal old wounds, fix current problems, and get you back to looking forward to your future together.
Clearly set and maintain boundaries in a way that is kind to yourself and your partner.
Confidently ask for what you want, and declare what you need — without feeling guilty.
Identify thoughts and scenarios that invite unnecessary arguments in.
Create a balance between how you are as people, and who you are as a couple.
And some couples just need a little help saying goodbye…

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Welcome. When working with couples, adult family relationships, and friendships, I take an attachment approach. I want to get to know the stories of past and present relationships, relational patterns, stresses, dreams, and victories that are currently impacting your felt-sense of being known, safely, and fully in your relationship(s). I infuse the decades of research and communication templates of Gottman Method Couples Counseling with the tailored insight of Attachment Core Pattern Therapy. Together we'll discover what part of the relational conflict is really about the issue you're discussing, really about the person you're in conflict with, the deeper roots of pain that are being triggered, and how the relationship you're in can be a part of your healing the rooted relational injury.
