23+ Years of Couples Therapy Experience
Clinical Profile: Garrett Coan, LCSW is a couples therapist with more than 23 years of experience, including training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). His work combines attachment-based EFT with structured, practical interventions for communication problems, recurring conflict, emotional disconnection, infidelity, and trust recovery.
Relationship recovery requires an active, structured clinical environment rather than passive observation. My practice integrates evidence-based couples therapy models to identify repetitive conflict loops, process underlying emotional pain, and systematically rebuild broken trust and safety.
