Advancing relational resilience through practice, research, and education.


I am Dr. Kipenzi Herron, LMFT, a couples therapist, researcher, and speaker specializing in relational resilience, step-couple dynamics, attachment, and culturally responsive relationship care. My work helps couples, step-couples, and consensually non-monogamous partners understand and change the patterns that keep them stuck so they can create relationships that feel safer, more connected, and more resilient.
Whether you're navigating recurring conflict, rebuilding trust, blending families, exploring consensual non-monogamy, or feeling emotionally disconnected from your partner, therapy provides a structured path toward meaningful and lasting change.
My work integrates evidence-based approaches including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method principles, EMDR, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and specialized training in addressing sexual concerns within psychotherapy. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, therapy is tailored to the unique needs, goals, and dynamics of each relationship.
I am the founder of Couples Chat Therapy, a specialized relationship therapy practice serving couples, step-couples, consensually non-monogamous partners, and individuals seeking relationship-focused support. Visit Couples Chat Therapy
