Conflict doesn’t feel good…
It’s exhausting, lonely and disheartening; especially when you’re arguing with the person who’s meant to understand you the most.
If you’re feeling unsupported, misunderstood or betrayed by your partner, couples therapy can help.
Hi! I’m Lois, a licensed therapist specializing in relationships. I help couples take a calm and honest look at the challenges they’re facing.
My approach is warm and direct. I strive to bring authenticity to our sessions, and I’ll encourage you to do the same.
We won’t just talk about what’s happening…we’ll figure out why, and what to do about it.
Recurring arguments
Infidelity/betrayal recovery
Defensiveness & communication issues
Different desires for intimacy or quality time
Difficulty balancing responsibilities
Financial disagreements
Divorce & Separation
Personal trauma that impacts the relationship
Resentment & trust Issues
Some common issues I work with include:
-
Standard sessions (1 hour) are $165.
When appropriate, extended sessions (90 mins) are offered for $250.
-
I accept all major credit/debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover) & HSA.
I currently do not accept insurance of any kind.
-
I do not currently accept insurance.
In general, true couples therapy is not covered by insurance.
Operating outside of the limits of insurance allows me to guarantee fee transparency, flexibility and confidentiality.
-
Most couples work with me for 8–12 sessions, depending on their goals and the complexity of their concerns. Some see meaningful improvement in just a few sessions, while others choose to continue longer for deeper work. We’ll decide together what timeline fits your needs.
-
Yes! We’ll meet via video call.
You can join from the comfort of your home or another private space where you feel at ease.
You must be in NC or MS during your appointments. You and your partner can log on from different physical locations if desired.
All sessions take place through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform.
Currently, I do not offer in-person therapy.

Couples therapy isn’t effective or appropriate in every situation.
In the cases below, I generally recommend individual therapy and/or a psychiatric evaluation instead:
Serious, unmanaged mental health concerns (including thoughts of harming yourself or others)
Ongoing substance use that isn’t being treated
One-directional abuse or violence
I am happy to connect you with appropriate resources in these circumstances.
