Even couples who care deeply for one another can find themselves feeling disconnected or on opposite sides. Whether communication struggles, family-of-origin patterns, or everyday stress have created distance, there is hope for finding your way back to each other. At Hope and Healing Within Counseling Services, we help couples navigate challenges, deepen understanding, and build the trust needed for vulnerability and closeness. Together, you can strengthen your friendship, rekindle affection, and nurture a relationship where you both feel seen, heard, valued, and connected.

  • Christie is an amazing therapist!

    Christie McDermott is an amazing therapist! At a very low time of my life she talked me through a lot of issues I was having and helped me find a better path. It's been a year since our first meeting and I am doing so much better now. It's been nice to have someone to talk to and help me become a more confident and stronger person.

  • ...I'm so thankful!

    She seems to understand right where I am and gives me so much of a greater insight to reassure I'm not crazy for feeling what I have been feeling. I'm so thankful!

I am a counselor, a former teacher, a mother and a grandmother. In our sessions there is space for what hurts, for the questions you have not said out loud and for hope to grow again. If your Christian faith is important to you, it is welcome here. If it is not, I will never push it.
