Seaford Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, M.Ed, LCMHC
If there is one thing I specialize in, it is relationship and marriage counseling. I am most passionate about helping couples to bring their relationships to a new level of intimacy, connection, and satisfaction. The average couple that comes to marriage counseling probably should have been there six years prior. Don’t delay! If you think you might need marriage counseling, you probably do. And you’ll probably wonder why you didn’t come earlier!
I am trained in the Gottman method of marriage counseling, and I would love to talk to you about how and why it works. Certainly some marriages come to me and crisis, but other marriages come for no other reason than enrichment. Both help couples become happier and more satisfied in this, their closest relationship.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed therapy for relationship issues, including communication breakdowns, emotional disconnection, trust concerns, recurring conflict, and difficulty maintaining healthy and fulfilling partnerships. Relationship challenges can affect emotional well-being, daily stress levels, family dynamics, and overall quality of life, often leaving individuals or couples feeling stuck, misunderstood, or disconnected.
Brad takes a holistic and collaborative approach to relationship counseling, helping clients identify and understand the emotional patterns, attachment styles, and past experiences that may be contributing to current relationship difficulties. Therapy provides a supportive space to explore both present-day challenges and underlying relational or trauma-related factors that may be influencing how partners connect, communicate, and respond to one another.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support healing and healthier relationship functioning. Treatment focuses on improving communication, strengthening emotional awareness, reducing reactivity, and developing more secure and supportive relational patterns.
Relationship difficulties are often influenced by deeper emotional experiences, including past trauma, attachment wounds, family-of-origin dynamics, and individual personality differences. Brad’s approach helps clients understand these deeper influences while also focusing on practical, present-day changes that improve connection, trust, and emotional safety.
Therapy is tailored to each individual or couple’s needs and is designed to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where both partners (when applicable) can feel heard and understood. The goal is to support meaningful, lasting change rather than temporary conflict resolution.
Healing and growth in relationships are possible. With the right support, clients can rebuild trust, improve communication, and create healthier, more balanced, and more fulfilling relationships.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
As a psychotherapist, I incorporate structural family therapy to work with couples by focusing on the underlying structures and dynamics within their relationship. This approach allows us to identify and address patterns that may be causing conflict or dissatisfaction. I help couples map out their current relational patterns, including boundaries and roles, and work together to reorganize these structures in a way that promotes healthier interactions. Through structured interventions, we explore how these dynamics impact their connection and communication. My goal is to empower couples to establish more effective and balanced ways of relating to one another, enhancing their overall relationship satisfaction and fostering a more supportive and cohesive partnership.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, BMP, LCMHC
“If you think you’re enlightened — begins a well-known adage by spiritual leader Ram Dass — “[then] go spend a week with your family.”
It hits a nerve, right?
That’s because we’re most vulnerable — & thus most easily triggered — with our families of origin.
Inevitably, those same wounds and soft spots show up within our romantic relationships.
But there’s hope! In learning to reparent ourselves, we liberate ourselves to a new relational future. Informed by my own personal growth work, I support clients to heal attachment trauma and thereby transform their relationships.
