Marriage and couples counseling for Orange County, by video

Orange County couples often want counseling that's private, efficient, and fits a full calendar. Video sessions let you meet from home in Irvine, Anaheim, Santa Ana, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Mission Viejo, or anywhere in the county, without anyone seeing you walk into an office.

Many OC couples are raising kids, managing demanding careers, and caring for aging parents at the same time. The relationship gets whatever is left over. Counseling is a way to put it back near the top of the list.

Common reasons OC couples reach out

  • Busy, successful lives with less and less time together
  • Different expectations around money and lifestyle
  • Faith and family traditions in a blended or intercultural marriage
  • Rebuilding trust after a breach

If faith is important to you, I'm glad to make room for it in our work.

How it works

We follow Brief Directive Marriage Counseling™, six weekly sessions. We talk about the past once, then keep the focus on what you'll do differently.

It's a focused, six-session approach, and I actively guide you toward change. We know what isn't working. Now we put the changes in place. If you're living in the past, you're not building a future. You're just practicing the problem.

Sessions are by secure video. You both need to be in California during the session, and you can join from the same room or from two places.
