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.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with couples at all stages of their relationships, from those looking to deepen connection to those navigating significant strain or considering major decisions about the future. Relationships can be both deeply fulfilling and profoundly challenging, and many couples find themselves stuck in patterns of miscommunication, disconnection, or recurring conflict.
My approach is active, direct, and grounded in helping both partners better understand not only each other, but their own contributions to the dynamic. I focus on identifying patterns, improving communication, and fostering greater emotional awareness and accountability within the relationship.
I also draw from structured approaches, including discernment counseling when one partner feels uncertain about whether to stay or leave, creating space for thoughtful, intentional decision-making.
The goal is not simply to reduce conflict, but to help couples build more meaningful, resilient, and satisfying ways of relating—whether that leads to strengthening the relationship or gaining clarity about next steps.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My relationship work is informed by attachment theory and Emotionally Focused Therapy approaches. I have no agenda when it comes to your relationship outcomes - I'm happy to help you stay together, open up, or move apart. I bring empathy, patience, humor, respect and a little sass to your sessions in hopes that we can find the best solution for everyone involved.

Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
Relationships can become caught in patterns that neither person intends, yet both find difficult to change. I help couples slow these interactions enough to understand what each partner needs, fears, or longs for, and how those experiences enter the relationship. The work supports a fuller capacity to hear one another, address difficulties, and develop closeness.

I'm a certified Imago therapist, and I'm a strong believer in this approach to couples counseling. I honestly think this is one of the most powerful and effective ways to resolve relationship conflicts. I've watched it help countless couples work through their issues, and I've even benefited from it in my own relationship.

Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
When conflict, emotional distance, or the “roommate phase” takes over, it can feel like the connection you once had is slipping away. In couples therapy, we use Emotionally Focused Therapy to identify the negative cycles keeping you stuck, uncover the underlying emotions and needs, and help you reach for each other in ways that rebuild safety, trust, and closeness—both emotionally and sexually. Whether you want to repair, deepen, or simply understand your patterns better, this is a collaborative space to create the kind of marriage or relationship that feels good again.
