Couples Therapy in Columbia, MD

When your relationship feels like it’s falling apart, the last thing you want is surface-level advice.


 At Poole Conflict Solutions, we work with couples in Columbia who are dealing with high conflict, betrayal, or major transitions—like becoming parents or deciding whether to stay together. These are heavy, painful situations, and you deserve support that’s discreet, specialized, and actually helps you make progress.

Whether you’re feeling stuck in the same fight over and over again, struggling to recover after infidelity, or overwhelmed by the shift that happened after having a baby, we get how hard it is to try to fix things on your own. You’ve probably read books, listened to podcasts, and maybe even tried therapy before. But if it wasn’t targeted to the kind of conflict you're dealing with, it likely didn’t work.

We Help Columbia Couples With:

  • Constant conflict and emotional shutdowns

  • Infidelity (emotional or physical)

  • Feeling more like roommates than partners

  • Growing resentment and communication breakdowns

  • Challenges after having a baby or becoming parent

  • Feeling like you're the only one trying

What Makes Us Different

At Poole Conflict Solutions, we don’t do vague advice or one-size-fits-all strategies. We specialize in high-conflict couples, infidelity recovery, and new parent couples, using evidence-based approaches like the Gottman Method and Imago Therapy. I’ve seen firsthand how fast things can shift when therapy is focused, honest, and tailored to what’s really going on.

Sessions are 100% virtual, so you can join from home—even if you're juggling kids or a packed schedule. We’re based in Columbia, MD, and proudly serve clients throughout Howard County and all of Maryland.
