You and your partner keep having the same painful fight. Time and again, you're left feeling confused, hurt, and stuck. The loving connection you once had feels a million miles away, and you're wondering how things got so hard. You want to feel secure, supported, and close, but instead you feel alone, unwanted, and not enough.
In couples therapy, we can uncover what's causing this painful pattern of disconnection and start building patterns that help you connect. We'll work together to help you and your partner communicate openly, navigate conflict as a team, heal wounds, build trust, and deepen your connection and intimacy.

I work with men and women who are tired of feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns, relationship conflict, anxiety, or a version of themselves that clearly is not working anymore. Many of my clients are struggling in relationships, questioning their marriage, going through divorce, or realizing they cannot keep pretending everything is fine. I work best with people who genuinely want their lives to change, even if they feel overwhelmed or unsure where to start. My approach is direct, practical, compassionate, and occasionally humorous, because sometimes therapy is funny. I value honesty, accountability, and actual effort toward change.

Hi, I’m Kristin Dickerson. I help kids ages 3–11 who are navigating anxiety, big emotional outbursts, or major changes like grief, loss, or divorce.
If you’re reaching out, you might be feeling "stuck"—trying everything you know while your child’s overwhelming feelings affect the whole household. You don't have to figure it out alone.
Play therapy is to kids what talk therapy is to adults. Play is your child's safe, natural way to process emotions they can't yet put into words. I also incorporate monthly meetings with parents to help you find ways to support your child.
Let's connect for a free call to see if we're a good fit.

I work with individuals - teens and adults, couples, and folks in all forms of relationship systems (polyamorous, ethically non-monogamous, etc). Individual therapy often centers around identity development and exploration, development of supportive coping skills, and processing the daily struggles and challenges folks face as they navigate their lives in this ever-changing world. In work with those seeking relationship support, I enjoy helping clients in resolving conflict, increasing emotional and physical intimacy, and working on breaking down communication barriers.
