Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I have been married over 40 years so I can tell you, relationships are hard but so worth it. I love working with couples to help them realize what really is normal and messy and how to navigate normal and messy. I will listen to you and your partner describe what each of you see as an issue, then hear your examples and teach each of you how you can approach the situation differently to give you a better outcome. Couples come in thinking they are going to tell me everything that is wrong with their partner and to fix them. I help individuals realize how their own actions can change the outcome. Once everyone focuses on doing their own work, then they see the desired outcome in the relationship. It sounds uncomfortable, but it's really a lot of fun and we laugh a lot.

Daniel Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD., DBSM
Dr. Kessler helps couples improve their communication, resolve conflict, and build stronger relationships. With over 25 years of experience working with couples, he uses a variety of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and Gottman therapy. He can help couples with a variety of concerns related to communication issues, sexuality and intimacy, extended families, parenting and blended families.
The most effective way to help couples is to create a safe and supportive space where they can feel comfortable talking about their challenges, focusing on improving communication and understanding. Therapy will help couples to identify and address the underlying issues in their relationship, and develop the skills they need to communicate more effectively and resolve conflict.

Brian Swope
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships must be able to adapt to the any of the lifespan changes that are inevitable - job and financial changes, children and in-laws. The list is extensive. Relationships are different than friendships in that they require work - deepening communication, making time for intimacy and sex and managing individual growth/exploration. Doing this work without building resentment and defensive is one way that therapy supports relationships to make them more responsive to the changing needs across time.
