Online Couples & Marriage Counseling in Florida
Rebuild Connection. Restore Trust. Strengthen Your Relationship.
Are you and your partner struggling to connect, communicate, or move forward?
You're not alone. Many couples go through difficult seasons—and with professional
couples counseling, healing is possible.
Whether you're married, dating, engaged, or navigating a separation, online relationship
therapy can help you find clarity and solutions.
Do These Relationship Struggles Sound Familiar?
-
Constant arguing or frequent miscommunication?
-
Thoughts of separation or divorce?
-
Feelings of resentment building between you and your partner?
-
Hurtful conversations that attack each other’s character?
-
Infidelity—either emotional or physical—impacting your connection?
-
A lack of trust or respect?
-
Feeling like your relationship is transactional, not emotional?
-
Parenthood affecting your intimacy and emotional bond?
-
A sense that your partner has changed—or that you’ve grown apart?
If any of these challenges resonate with you, couples therapy can help you navigate these difficult waters.
How Couples Counseling Can Help
Online couples counseling is a safe space for both partners to be heard, understood, and supported. With guidance, you can:
-
Improve communication skills and reduce conflict
-
Rebuild trust and emotional intimacy
-
Heal from past betrayals or unresolved issues
-
Reconnect with shared goals and values
-
Learn tools to resolve future challenges together
I work with couples using evidence-based methods such as the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Solution-Focused Therapy to strengthen relationships from the ground up.
Why Couples Seek Therapy
Even strong couples experience conflict and disconnect. Life stressors like work, finances, parenting, health, or trauma can all create distance. Therapy helps bring those issues to light and gives you a clear path forward—as a team.
Whether you're trying to save your marriage, explore premarital counseling, or simply need help communicating better, professional guidance can make all the difference.
Is Online Couples Therapy Effective?
Yes—online couples therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions for many couples. It allows you and your partner to attend from the comfort of your own home, creating convenience and flexibility without sacrificing progress.
I offer secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth counseling across the State of Florida.
Is Couples Therapy Worth the Investment?
Think of couples counseling as a way to protect and nurture one of the most important relationships in your life. If your relationship is suffering, the emotional cost is already high. Therapy can help you prevent further damage and rebuild what’s been lost.

Feeling Stuck in Your Relationship?
You found your person—the one you pictured building a life with. At first, everything felt exciting and joyful. But over time, life stressors, routines, and emotional strain may have shifted things.
-
Are you going days without meaningful conversation?
-
Is intimacy missing—emotionally or physically?
-
Has the thing you once loved most about your partner become the thing you now resent?
-
Do you feel emotionally distant—even while lying next to each other?
You're not alone. Many couples experience these struggles, and therapy provides a space to reconnect and rebuild.
Common Relationship Stressors Include:
-
Parenting and loss of intimacy
-
Death of a loved one
-
Job transitions or financial strain
-
Infidelity or emotional betrayal
-
Communication breakdown
-
Mid-life crisis or identity shifts
We Don’t Communicate Anymore...
This is one of the most common concerns I hear. But here’s what I often say in response:
“You are communicating—you’re just not doing it in a way your partner hears or understands.”
There are 5 main forms of communication:
-
Verbal
-
Non-verbal
-
Written
-
Visual
-
Listening ← (often the most overlooked)
When listening fades, partners can feel ignored, unseen, or invalidated—leading to resentment and disconnect.
Do You Know Your Love Languages?
Understanding how you and your partner give and receive love can change everything.
Take the Love Languages Quiz together to better understand each other's emotional needs.
Can Couples Counseling Really Help?
Absolutely. Therapy can help you:
-
Communicate more effectively
-
Rebuild emotional and physical intimacy
-
Resolve lingering conflicts
-
Heal from betrayal
-
Re-establish shared goals and values
-
Create a new, healthier connection
Therapy isn’t about “fixing” your partner. It’s about working together to grow as individuals and as a couple—with support and guidance.
Therapy That Fits Your Life
I offer online couples therapy across Florida so you can attend sessions conveniently from your home. Whether you're married, dating, or in a same-sex relationship—therapy is for every couple seeking clarity, connection, and healing.
What to Expect in Couples Counseling
In our first session, we’ll explore:
-
What brought you to therapy
-
Each of your goals and concerns
-
Patterns in your communication and behavior
-
Emotional triggers and unmet needs
My role is not to take sides or act as a referee, but to guide you in becoming more effective communicators and help you discover new ways to support one another.
Will Therapy “Fix” Our Relationship?
That depends on the goals you and your partner bring to therapy. Couples who enter therapy early, with an open mind and willingness to change, often experience profound improvements.
Those who use therapy as a last resort may find the process more challenging—but even then, therapy can provide clarity, closure, or a renewed foundation to build on.
