The moment I realized I wanted to pursue a career as a Marriage and Family Therapist was during my first psychology course in high school. This course sparked my interest in counseling, specifically with couples and families. A core value of mine is how important relationships are with the world, our families, and ourselves. Learning about the developmental stages inspired me to focus on the importance of relationships. Relationships are fundamental to a child's upbringing, not just to children but at all stages of life, starting with childhood, leading to adolescence, and though adulthood.

We start by creating a space together that feels like yours, intentional at every step to ensure our relationship is one where you feel safe to peel back the masks & really be seen.
When did life start feeling so empty? You can’t remember the last time you felt happy, & you’re tired of walking the tightrope between authenticity & masquerading. Your go-to's of high-achieving, perfectionism, & people-pleasing feel most familiar, but the anxiety & resentment keep growing. You’ve been building a life around the counterfeit you, & it’s lonely. The fact that you’re looking for a therapist tells me you believe you’re worth whatever it takes to occupy your one & only life. And I suspect you have the courage & grit it takes to bridge the gap between the life you’re living & the life you long for. So how does it work?

I work with individuals, couples, and multi-partner relationships, around sexuality, identity, and self-expression, as well as family, grief, and life transitions.
Deep trust and communication are at the heart of safe, secure, and fulfilling relationships. Whether with family, in romance, in therapy, or in sport; trust and safety allow us to be fully expressed, to explore, to take risks, and to grow. The therapeutic relationship can provide unique opportunities to feel safe, seen, and understood. It can also support our innate capacities for healing, integration, and growth.

As we build a therapeutic relationship my goal is to teach you how to build stronger relationships and learn the skills needed to overcome you mental health struggles.
Currently Accepting NEW Clients- Hello, my name is Zach DePledge. In the 12 years I have been working in mental health I have grown a passion in working with teenagers, young adults, and parents. Society places so much pressure on us these days to be perfect. What I have found is the comparison game we play in our minds destroys our self-esteem and can cause anxiety, depression, and many other mental health struggles. Parents are left wondering "am I parenting correctly?" Most of the times we don't talk about our struggles because we don't want to appear weak, in turn we are left struggling alone.

I believe that every person's story is a tapestry woven from the threads of their experiences, relationships, and beliefs. These experiences shape our understanding of ourselves and the world around us, influencing the coping strategies and relational patterns we develop from an early age. While the contexts of our lives may evolve, these patterns often remain deeply ingrained, leaving us feeling stuck and disconnected. I strive to create a safe and nurturing space where we can explore these patterns together. I aim to help you identify the barriers that may be hindering your growth, and working collaboratively.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
