Misty Johnson

All relationships meet challenges. Conflict is a normal and healthy experience in relationships. It's how we navigate conflict and recover from conflict that keeps relationships together through thick and thin. With support, a powerful bond can survive and endure all challenges that arise.

Taylor Swing
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Have you ever desired to get close to someone but couldn’t? Have you given your all to someone only to be hurt and disappointed in return? Do you question every move you make while you date? You’re not alone. As individuals, we intrinsically seek connection. Whether it be family, friends, dating, or partners - sometimes we all need a little help with boundaries, communication, intimacy, anxiety, codependency, and attachment issues, just to name a few. I join with clients to help build self-awareness, communication, and connection to create secure and trusting relationships.

Make Marriage Better
Psychologist, Ph.D.
At Make Marriage Better, we specialize in relationship and marriage coaching, recognizing that every partnership is a unique journey filled with both joys and challenges. Our approach focuses on identifying the underlying fears driving the relationship issues, such as fear of abandonment, loss of intimacy, or fear of judgment. Using the Deconstructing Anxiety™ method, we guide couples to uncover their “chief defenses”—the emotional barriers that hinder open communication and connection. By encouraging partners to do the opposite of these defenses, we create a safe environment where they can express their feelings, build empathy, and foster understanding. This transformative process empowers couples to navigate conflicts more effectively, rebuild trust, and rekindle the love that initially brought them together. With our support, couples can strengthen their bonds, enhance their emotional intimacy, and create a more fulfilling relationship for the long term.

David Oretsky Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a couples therapist my goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment for couples to explore their emotional patterns, understand their deeper needs, and find healthier ways to communicate. By delving into your emotional experiences and the patterns that may have led to disconnection or conflict, we can work together to shift these patterns towards creating a more secure, resilient, and loving bond.
Whether you're experiencing a relationship crisis, struggling with communication, or simply wishing to deepen your connection, I believe in your capacity to change and grow within your relationship. Together, we will strive to rekindle the emotional bond that brought you together, enabling a relationship that is fulfilling, supportive, and emotionally rich. Remember, it is never too late to heal, grow, and foster a thriving relationship with your partner.

Brad Byrum
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MBA, LMFT
I am a relationship therapist. I help couples in relationship distress. Many of the couples I work with come to therapy feeling lost in conflict cycles which they don't understand and desperately want to change. I understand how much courage it takes to reach out for help and to let another person get inside your relationship, especially when you are feeling hurt, discouraged, angry, or humiliated. If you are searching for a safe place to explore what's not working in your relationship, and support in creating solutions, please contact me.
I realized early in my clinical practice that I wanted to focus on couples therapy. In addition to many hundreds of hours working with couples in distress, I have pursued training specific to couples therapy, including advanced training in both Emotion Focused Therapy and the Gottman approach. I am truly passionate about helping couples heal and flourish.
Please know that no matter what you bring to couple therapy, I will meet you with compassion. I will help you explore what isn’t working in your relationships and why. We work together to understand what you want and need and to identify the changes you want to make. Together, we create solutions that work for you.

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Before, during, after a marriage. What couple doesn't benefit from a little tune up now and again? Is it communication? How can we express ourselves authentically without letting our trauma get in the way? Are we actually listening? Communication is a set of skills that can be learned, honed, and practiced over time. It is not the magic cure to all that ails, but it is a helpful first step. When a couple is able to communicate effectively they are able to deepen their exploration of each other and start to connect and heal in meaningful ways.

Relationships are hard. Often, the most intimate and loving relationships with your partner or close friends and family can be the most challenging. I welcome relationships of all shapes and sizes, and have a passion for supporting interracial or intercultural couples struggling with their differences. With a gentle firmness, I will invite couples to be honest and vulnerable with themselves and each other.
