Couples Counseling · Flagship practice
Reconnect, communicate, and repair.
When the same argument keeps happening, when conversations escalate before they begin, when closeness has quietly drifted — couples therapy creates room to slow down, listen differently, and find your way back to each other.
What we work on
The shape of the work.
- De-escalating conflict patterns
- Communication that actually lands
- Repairing after rupture or affair
- Rebuilding trust over time
- Intimacy, sex, and connection
- Parenting and co-parenting
- Life transitions and stress
- Bilingual / bicultural couples
Modality
Warm, structured, and non-blaming.
Maria draws from evidence-based couples work and decades of clinical experience. Sessions stay grounded — never sides-taking — and focus on the patterns between you rather than fault. When trauma is in the room, EMDR-informed work can support repair.
Common questions
A few specifics.
Do you see one partner if the other isn't ready?
Yes. Many people start individually to clarify what they want before bringing a partner in. The work can still help the relationship.
Is this for couples on the edge of separating?
Often, yes. Couples come at every stage — newly committed, married for decades, considering separation. Maria meets you where you are.
How long does couples work usually take?
It varies. Many couples meet weekly or biweekly for several months. Pace is collaborative and reviewed together.
Can sessions be in Spanish or bilingual?
Yes — English, Español, or fluidly between the two.
