Allison Pichardo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It can feel hopeless when our partner is not understanding our emotions or needs. We can get stuck in negative patterns and not know how to change them. If this is what your relationship feels like, let me help you. I help couples learn how to communicate difficult things in ways that their partner can actually understand. And I help couples learn about each other on a deeper emotional level.

Amy Price, AMP Family Therapy Inc.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a marriage and family therapist, my training is specialized for intimate, close relationships. I utilize faith principles when applicable to the client's belief system, and EFT (emotionally-focused therapy) for couples, which also has a companion book and workbooks. For an additional fee I can also have couples complete the Prepare-Enrich Couples Assessment, which helps couples navigate critical conversations on topics such as sexual intimacy, forgiveness, finances, raising children and relationship roles.

Anthony Canapi - Your Queer Relationship Therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Relationships can bring immense joy, and also activate our deepest wounds. You may find yourselves stuck in the same arguments, navigating trust after betrayal, struggling with mismatched needs, exploring non-monogamy, or simply feeling disconnected.
My approach to couples work is collaborative and relational. We slow down patterns rather than blame each other. Together, we’ll examine communication dynamics, attachment styles, boundaries, intimacy, sexual connection, and shared meaning. I work affirmatively with LGBTQ+ couples and diverse relationship structures, honoring that there is no single “right” way to love- only what feels aligned and mutually respectful for you.
Whether you’re dating, engaged, married, or redefining your partnership, therapy can help you move from reactivity toward intentional connection.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
As humans, we are wired for connection. Navigating a healthy, fulfilling long-term relationship is challenging and requires all parties to be willing to grow emotionally.
As someone who believes in and supports a diversity of relational styles including monogamous, ethically non-monogamous, polyamorous, etc. we can work together to help you craft the right communication skills for whatever type of relationship you are developing with your partner or partners. I believe the most essential piece for a thriving union is direct, honest, and kind communication between individuals. Recognizing that we live in a world with a vast range of gender identities and sexualities—including queer, gay and lesbian, bisexual, asexual, and straight—I am invested in helping you identify the specific issues you will need to address in order to achieve a more well-rounded partnership. Together we will determine and implement the tools necessary to cultivate an open and connected dialogue within your relationship. These skills will allow you to generatively deal with topics like sex, ethical non-monogamy, finances, children, and careers (to name a few).

Karina Baltazar-Durán LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I treat the couple and the family as a system. We are all interconnected and yet trying to find our space in said system. Family is at the root of who we are and sometimes those roots get tangled through generational patters or trauma leaving us to not be our best for ourselves or the other(s). Allow me to help you identity, sort through, and untangle those roots to get to who you really want to be.

Corrie Blissit
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT#150479
Strong relationships are built on emotional safety, honest communication, and satisfying intimacy. As a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional (CSTIP), I work with couples using an integrative approach that honors the emotional, relational, and embodied dimensions of connection. I support partners in exploring both emotional and sexual intimacy in a respectful, shame-free way. Whether you’re facing communication struggles, mismatched desire, disconnection, or navigating changes in intimacy, our work focuses on understanding relational patterns, repairing ruptures, rebuilding trust, and strengthening closeness. Sessions draw from attachment-based therapy, trauma-informed care, nervous system awareness, and sex-positive frameworks—supporting couples in feeling more secure, connected, and aligned with one another.

Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
I have worked with hundreds of couples over the years and using Gottman Therapy and EFT (Emotion Focused Therapy), my goal is to improve empathy and communication. My hope is to give couples the tools to thrive and have a healthier understanding of themselves and their partners. The better we are for ourselves, the better we can be for everyone else. Breaking the cycles of dysfunction take time, but once we understand what is driving the pain, we can move toward a place of peace.

San Diego's identity as a major military and biotech hub creates dual demand for therapists specializing in veteran trauma and PTSD on one hand, and the high-functioning anxiety and burnout of the life sciences industry on the other. The city's large active-duty population at Naval Base San Diego and Camp Pendleton means therapists with military specialty training are consistently sought after, and many practices are specifically oriented toward service members and their families. San Diego's border location and large Latino population drive demand for bilingual therapists and culturally affirming care for immigrant and mixed-status families. Scripps Health and UC San Diego Health provide institutional mental health anchors across the county.
