Dr.Kipenzi M. Herron

At Couples Chat Therapy in San Diego, I help couples and consensually non-monogamous partners break entrenched patterns that keep relationships stuck and disconnected. Whether you’re caught in the same arguments, navigating jealousy or trust, feeling unseen, or just drifting apart. We will work to disrupt these cycles and rebuild emotional safety and intimacy. I offer an affirming, honest space for monogamous, CNM, poly, same-sex, and queer relationships navigating love on their own terms. I meet you where you are with a blend of structure, empathy, and just the right amount of challenge using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), EMDR, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Gottman (Level 1), and ATSIP training to help individuals and couples disrupt stuck patterns, heal relational wounds, and strengthen emotional connection. Couples therapy with me is grounded in attachment and emotional safety. Using EFT and Gottman-informed work, and advanced relational training, I help partners understand the patterns that pull them apart and build more responsive, trusting connection. There is space to be vulnerable, challenged, and emotionally met. If you are ready, reach out. Specialties: Whether you're fighting to stay together or fighting to be heard, I specialize in helping couples break free from the same old arguments and finally get each other. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help you identify the emotional cycles that keep you disconnected, so you can build a relationship that feels secure, intimate, and real across monogamous, open, and poly relationships. Credentials & Experience: Trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), EMDR, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Level 1), with advanced training through the Institute for Relational Intimacy (ATSIP). I help couples cut through conflict, improve communication, and rebuild connection.
