People seek psychotherapy for a wide variety of reasons, from coping with significant life challenges, to understanding the nature of their emotional lives, to healing from trauma or other major psychological conditions.

Relationship and Marriage Therapy
Relationship and marriage therapy is a non-judgmental process through which any couple (married or otherwise) works with a specialized psychologist or counselor to develop the courage, confidence and compassion that it takes to share each other’s vulnerabilities, in aim of repairing or strengthening the connection and trust necessary for a long-lasting and meaningful relationship.
