Laguna Beach, California therapist: The Mindful Life with Lori Kahn, life coach
Relationships

The Mindful Life with Lori Kahn

Life Coach, Certified Integrative Coach, Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher
I have worked with many couples from simply wanting to reconnect in a long term and functional marriage to couples on the verge of divorce. Utilizing mindfulness tools and teaching self inquiry, communication and how to check in and have "difficult conversations" as well as discovering more about our own needs and how to be honest and ask for support rather than hope our partner can read our minds can transform our relationships from one of unconscious habits and patterns to stepping in each day with curiosity and discovery. Though we are all always changing, we often expect our relationships to be in a fixed state and are disappointed, hurt or feel betrayed when they change. Learning to be comfortable with change is a foundation of mindful relationships!

Relationships

Monica M. Huston

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships can become strained when patterns of miscommunication, defensiveness, or disconnection take hold. I work with couples to understand these patterns at a deeper level, focusing on how each partner contributes to the dynamic. Therapy provides a space to slow things down, improve understanding, and develop more meaningful and stable ways of relating.

Relationships often falter not from lack of love, but from miscommunication and unmet needs. I work with couples to uncover hidden patterns, improve connection, and cultivate intimacy and understanding that makes partnership feel safe, exciting, and real.

Irvine, California therapist: Ms. Carol Jean Timmons, marriage and family therapist
Relationships

Ms. Carol Jean Timmons

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
The goal of Couple Counseling is for a third party to help the couple see what they cannot see in their interactions, hear from each other what they have not been able to hear, have empathy for feelings of which they were unaware, forgive what they were too angry to forgive, and appreciate what they have forgotten to be grateful for in their relationship. I believe that if two people want their relationship to work, it definitely can! If even one does not, it will not work.

Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, AMFT
Relationships are where we seek connection, but they can also be where we feel the most stuck or misunderstood. I work with individuals, couples, and people in non-traditional relationship structures to improve communication, deepen emotional and physical intimacy, and break free from painful patterns. Whether you're navigating conflict, disconnection, or big life transitions, therapy offers a space to reconnect with yourself and your partner(s).

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott

Psychologist, PsyD.
Relationship and marriage counseling is not just for couples in crisis — it is for any two people who want to communicate better, reconnect more deeply, and build a stronger foundation before small problems become significant ones. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I work with couples navigating communication breakdown, emotional disconnection, trust issues, conflict resolution, intimacy challenges, and marriage counseling after infidelity. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and evidence-based couples therapy techniques, I help partners break reactive cycles and rebuild the relationship they actually want. Telehealth couples therapy available across 40+ states.
