Getting to know Wendy Kish

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in working with couples who feel distant, unheard, or stuck in painful cycles of conflict. Over the past 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside couples as they rediscover connection, repair trust, and learn how to truly support one another. I believe every relationship has the potential for healing. My role is to help you and your partner slow down, listen differently, and find new ways to communicate with honesty and compassion. I use a blend of Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman Method techniques, and Cognitive Behavioral strategies, tailoring each session to your unique relationship dynamics. What We’ll Work On Together Breaking unhelpful cycles of conflict and misunderstanding Rebuilding trust and security after hurt or betrayal Strengthening intimacy — emotional, physical, and spiritual Navigating life transitions such as marriage, parenting, or divorce recovery Developing tools for lasting connection and resilience My Approach Clients describe me as warm, grounding, and nonjudgmental. I balance compassion with structure, giving each partner space to be heard while also guiding you toward practical strategies that can shift your relationship outside of therapy sessions. Getting Started I understand how vulnerable it can feel to reach out for help in your relationship. Whether you’re looking for repair or renewal, I provide a safe, supportive space for you and your partner to reconnect.
