The Gottman Method has an emphasis on skill building so you can expect our therapists to guide you in improving communication skills and increasing positive regard for the relationship.

My name is Beth and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe, judgement-free zone where you can embark on your unique journey towards emotional healing. I see our time together as collaborative. I believe that all people are capable of lasting growth, change, and healing and that the most potent source of healing lies within you. Together we will move toward the safety and connection you desire within yourself and in your most intimate relationships.

Starting couples therapy can be a scary, meaningful step — for you and your relationship. You might be feeling stuck in repetitive patterns or simply wanting to improve what’s already good. Couples therapy offers a unique form of treatment to focus on your relationship as the therapist’s client. At The Heart of the Matter Relationship Counseling, we believe therapy isn’t about assigning blame—it’s about building connection and helping both partners feel seen, heard, and safe together.

I’m Meg, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

I use a trauma-informed, attachment-based approach to help couples rebuild intimacy, connection, and trust, and to help individuals heal past traumas and work to meet personal and relational goals. I am experienced in treating depression, anxiety and trauma. I also have specialized training in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders as well as menopause-related mental health, and I enjoy working with couples and individuals navigating these unique challenges.
