As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I am trained to work with individual clients, couples and families from a relational and systemic approach using evidence based therapy modalities to help you achieve your goals.
Let me begin by commending you for demonstrating the strength to take the first step of reaching out for support. By having the courage to begin the therapeutic process, you are taking the first step towards overcoming whatever difficulties you are currently facing and creating a more positive future for yourself, your relationship, or your family. Oftentimes the stressors of life can become overwhelming for us to handle on our own and can negatively impact our relationships with others. Fortunately, you are not alone as I am here to listen with empathy and compassion.

I’m Samantha, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate. My areas of passion are grief and loss, interpersonal conflict, divorce, and coparenting adjustment. These dark, shadowy areas of life that touch many, if not all, of us sometimes create “big T” or “little t” traumas in the process.

If you’re willing to put your trust in me, we can get to the other side of that darkness together.

Marriage Counseling Therapists

How does marriage counseling work?

Marriage counseling works by teaching couples concrete skills to communicate with one another and solve disagreements in healthy ways. A trained mental health professional works with both members of a couple to explore difficulties the couple may be having and helps them develop skills to address these matters. Couples who don’t have any difficulties but want to prepare for marriage may develop skills for the future.

How long does marriage counseling typically last?

Marriage counseling is a short-term form of therapy; the process may last between four and eight sessions. Other forms of relationship guidance from mental health professionals, such as couples therapy, are longer lasting, may focus on the past rather than just the present, and are tailored to the individual couple and their emotions, history, and patterns in the relationship. Couples therapy often lasts for 12 weeks or longer.

Is marriage counseling effective?

Marriage counseling helps many couples develop relationship skills that may not have been acquired or tested in a relationship; partners may be better able to communicate and address conflict following counseling. However, there are many different forms of marriage counseling, and this form of counseling does not have as strong an evidence base as other modalities such as couples therapy.

Is marriage counseling effective if only one partner wants to go?

Yes, marriage counseling can still be effective if one partner convinces the other to engage in the process. Of course, whether counseling is effective depends on the couple’s commitment to work on their relationship; however, the short-term, skills-based nature of marriage counseling makes it a relatively easy “ask” of a partner, and the hesitant individual may see its value once counseling begins.
