New York City, New York therapist: Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy, licensed mental health counselor
Relationship and Marriage Counseling

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
*Free Consultation* Relationships are hard work and there is no perfect couple or perfect relationship. All healthy and sustainable relationships require some extra attention and tweaking from time to time, and therapy can be a great resource for couples going through a difficult time or just generally seeking feedback and support. I use the Gottman Method for Couples, which focuses on improving communication, increasing gratitude and affection, removing any barriers that stand in the way of deeper connection and intimacy, and creating more empathy and understanding between partners and the relationship as a whole. I love connecting with couples and helping them on their journey to a healthy and meaningful partnership that can survive and thrive amidst the difficulties that life inevitably throws our way.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Sara Fraser, psychologist
Relationship and Marriage Counseling

Sara Fraser

Psychologist, PhD
Childhood patterns often emerge in the context of our intimate love relationships. Work to identify and unpack these can be very helpful at bringing these into awareness and helping folks choose rather than react. Core themes in relationship work include differentiation and taking responsibility for self-regulation emotionally which can set the stage for true intimacy as opposed to tangled patterns of reactivity.

Relationship and Marriage Counseling

Melissa Klass M.A., LMFT

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #119163
Before, during, after a marriage. What couple doesn't benefit from a little tune up now and again? Is it communication? How can we express ourselves authentically without letting our trauma get in the way? Are we actually listening? Communication is a set of skills that can be learned, honed, and practiced over time. It is not the magic cure to all that ails, but it is a helpful first step. When a couple is able to communicate effectively they are able to deepen their exploration of each other and start to connect and heal in meaningful ways.

New York therapist: Dr Laura Soden, psychologist
Relationship and Marriage Counseling

Dr Laura Soden

Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
Too often even people who are successful and effective professionally struggle with relationships, particularly intimate relationships. The prerequisite is to develop a positive relationship with oneself... only a "whole" person will be able to connect with another whole person. But it is within relationship that we learn and improve that self-relationship, making couples' therapy a fortuitous simultaneous format for improving inner and external relationships. The process begins with remembering positive events and feelings that brought the couple together originally, turns to listening skills, tolerating vulnerability, and admitting fault. Throughout, defenses, prior relationships, and internal barriers are examined in session with the partner. Harrowing work at times, but ultimately so very rewarding in enabling greater openness and intimacy.
