Marriage Counseling Therapists in 20904

I am an extensively trained and culturally-competent Marriage and Family Therapist. For the past 15 years, I have worked with individuals facing emotional, mental health challenges as well as psycho social stressors. I am highly committed to assisting my client population reach their desired goals. I believe in the value of the collaborative process, when attempting to successfully work through relationship and socialization struggles, traumas, phobias and unhealthy learned behaviors.

When you are looking for a therapist, that decision often comes during times of crisis. This loss of balance and connection makes it hard to make decisions or trust anyone. But as you take this first step, I will honor your trust with a relationship that is free of judgement and focused on finding your foundation. Whether you are coping with trauma, depression, stress, anxiety, life transition, relationship or marital issues, we can work together to make things better. I bring to the table a deep knowledge of a diverse set of treatment methods that allow me to tailor your therapy uniquely to your personality, challenges and life.

Tired of the status quo? Stuck in a rut in your relationships, wellness, business, intimacy, or spirituality? I help align all parts of your life with your true authentic self. Together, we’ll secure genuine change through acceptance first. I'm Dr. Tom, and I'm licensed for independent practice as a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist in California (LMFT 111604), the District of Columbia (LMFT200001211), and Maryland (LCMFT, LCM754), and am a professional coach across the U.S. I have provided therapy to individuals and families since 2007. I'm also happily married for over 15 years, and we have 2 young boys.

I help bridge the gap between partners to create better communication and build intimacy. I want to encourage you and your partner(s) to be vulnerable with each other in order to come to mutual conclusions. Whether you are considering the higher commitment of marriage or rekindling your connection after difficult life events/transitions, I am here to provide the trained third party perspective that you seek to get back on the same page. When you're ready to get started, please reach out to schedule an intake assessment!

Given the many challenges that can lead to divorce (money problems, adultery, differences in raising children, etc.) the wisest thing couples can do is to seek Christian counseling before they say "I do." No matter how solid a couple’s relationship may be, problems and differences will inescapably arise, therefore, pre-marital counseling really operates like the best security a couple could ever purchase. We provide counseling that can benefit couples, marriages, individuals struggling with personal issues, and families experiencing difficulties.

Life’s journey, though affected by issues that threaten to overwhelm and sometimes consume, is intended to be interesting, exciting and rewarding. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who created JEM with passion and purpose. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals and families who are challenged by anxiety, depression, impulse control, anger management, life changes, marital, family and other interpersonal relationship issues.

If you're worried about your future, struggling to stay positive, fed up with work, longing for more joy, wondering whether to stay or leave, irritated all the time: I can help you. You don't have to stay "stuck." We'll work together until you get clear and move forward. Over a long career I've helped hundreds of individuals, couples and families navigate difficult situations, painful losses - and even welcome, but (who knew?) surprisingly challenging successes: graduating; getting married; becoming a parent; finally landing a job.

Mark believes that individuals are uniquely gifted with a purpose to seek self-actualization and contentment to optimize intrapersonal wellness. He attributes the complexities of humanity to have enabled him to implement or utilize an eclectic approach to counseling. A therapeutic process is a safe place for individuals to learn more about themselves, mental health awareness, and spiritual connection. As noted within the inner-person, counseling requires a commitment to address cognitive and emotional deficits to seek wellness to promote a healthy balanced lifestyle.

Life’s travels, on and off road, tests our endurance to navigate its difficulties. If you found yourself feeling lost, stressed, out of control, anxious or depressed by the difficulties in life, I am here to help. I work with individuals who suffer from trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, sexual dissatisfaction/dysfunction and other mental/behavioral health challenges. Through therapy, you'll create and maintain positive changes in daily life. We will work together towards your goals so you can be the self that you want to be and live the life that is meaningful and fulfill.

Feeling depressed or anxious or unable to manage stress? see individuals, groups and families. I specialize in helping people with depression, anxiety, relationship stress / divorce, setting appropriate boundaries, managing grief, and navigating stressful life events.

My clients are smart, successful people who want to create change in their lives. Does your life look good on paper, but you don't feel happy or fulfilled? Experiencing mild to moderate anxiety or depression? Maybe, like many, you suffered trauma, now interfering with your quality of life. You want insight and action, process and results, to feel and perform better. Maybe you are the concerned parent of a child, seeking help for emotional or behavior problems. You want a trusted therapist for your child who will include you in their treatment, and who will provide you with information and realistic strategies you can use at home.

Out of the hundreds of therapists listed, how do you know who is right for you? Most likely, you’ll want to talk to an experienced therapist who understands how struggling with stress can lead to feeling depressed, moody, irritable or anxious. Whether, you’ve lost connection with your family or find yourself spending needless energy meeting the expectations of others; you’ll want to talk to a therapist who will help you feel safe and supported.

I have experience working with clients ages from 5 to 105. I have worked at elementary school working with children, middle school & high school working with teens, university students working with young adults, community mental health centers working with adults, and a hospice setting working with mostly elders, providing individual, couples, family, group-therapy including bereavement counseling. I have enjoyed working with clients at every human development stages and learn to respect every one of my clients in the process of supporting them.

“I don't feel cared for.” “When I bring up the ‘hard stuff,’ I’m met with silence." “Whatever I give is never enough.” “We keep having the same fights.” “Why do I feel so alone?” If these statements resonate with you, I'm glad you've landed on my page. Navigating these struggles alone can be overwhelming. In couples therapy, I can offer effective and compassionate help for your relationship, tailored to meet the needs of your situation. Working together, we can develop the skills you need to move away from a cycle of conflict and frustration and move towards greater connection, communication, and intimacy.

I believe that the best way to help clients achieve their goals is through empathy and empowerment. Therapy is a collaborative team effort as the client is the expert in their life and experience and I, the therapist, am here to help you find the answers you need.

In our first session clients can expect to meet a warm, open and non-judgmental person on the other side that will listen to their expectations and give an honest assessment of whether I am best positioned to partner with them in their journey to manage, cope and find solutions.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. When thinking about the stages of change, I prefer to meet clients where they are; and am willing to work at a pace they feel comfortable with at the start of treatment. Individuals come to treatment with a myriad of goals and needs. Specific issues may be difficult to pinpoint. However, one of my goals in the overall process is to see clients who are open to changing their current dynamic or patterns, with the hope of a more favorable outcome.
