Counseling isn't just for relationships in crisis mode - in fact, if you wait until things are urgent, you may have waited too long.

Attend weekly sessions.
Most couples reach a point where they feel ready to navigate the relationship on their own in as few as 6 months.
Research-Based Practices Supporting LGBTQ+ Counseling
Same-sex and queer couples deserve proven counseling techniques and methods that are tailored to your unique needs. Doctors John and Julie Gottman have conducted decades of research on same-sex and queer couples in distress—and that’s what we use here.
Hi, I'm Terri.
This is a pic of me at the family cottage this past summer. I'm a straight cis lake gal!
Also, I'm a Gottman-trained couples counselor dedicated to helping couples build healthy and fulfilling relationships. I’m passionate about guiding couples through their journey of reconnecting. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can explore your concerns, deepen your understanding of each other, and develop effective communication and problem-solving skills.
Using the Gottman Method, which is grounded in decades of research and clinical practice, I assist couples in identifying negative patterns of interaction and replacing them with healthier alternatives. I emphasize the importance of fostering emotional intimacy, trust, and mutual respect to create a solid foundation for long-lasting happiness and fulfillment.
Take the strain off your relationship.
See your partner for who they are. Build unbreakable trust. Leave the pressure of outside events at the door.
