Research has shown that online marriage counselling, conducted over the internet, benefits couples as much as in-person marriage counseling.
The couples report that online couples counseling is convenient and effective. They describe a high level of emotional connection with their partner, improved communication, and enhanced relationship
as a result of online marriage counseling.
To view testimonials, either click 'Testimonials' and scroll down (on your computer) or click 'Testimonials' and then 'Reviews' (on your cell phone).
Everyone deserves to have a sense of emotional well-being and happiness that good marriage counseling can bring. If finances are a concern for you, I offer reduced-fee online marriage counseling services.
Reduced-fee online marriage counseling is based on the honor system.
Proof of income is NOT needed to book a reduced fee online marriage counseling session. The Honor System is based on trust and honesty.
Most insurance plans do not pay benefits for marriage counseling.
In order to use insurance benefits for couples counseling, at least one partner needs to meet the criteria for mental health diagnosis, such as adjustment disorder, depression, anxiety, or another disorder that requires mental health treatment. When we meet for the first marriage counseling session, we can discuss whether you or your partner meet the criteria for one of the mental health disorders.
Some people have no problem with having a documented mental health diagnosis. However, others prefer to keep their relationship and personal growth counseling private.
I provide individual and marriage counseling as an OUT-OF-NETWORK provider. Your health insurance policy may often offer partial or full coverage for OUT-OF-NETWORK mental health treatment, which requires a mental health diagnosis.
You are responsible for the payment of the full fee for a session at the time of the service. Upon request, I will provide you with a receipt of payment for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
Please call your insurance company to find out your OUT-OF-NETWORK coverage. Please ask how much out-of-network mental health coverage is and if you have a deductible that you need to meet before your insurance covers your sessions.
For centuries love, mysterious and puzzling in its nature, had been the exclusive domain of poets and songwriters. A 19th-century poet described the connection to a loved one as a safe haven: “Beside him I fear or dread none.” Love has been described as a source of joy and happiness as well as a source of misery and pain.
Not until a few decades ago has romantic love been demystified by psychologists and scientists. Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), described by Johnson as an empirically validated theory of adult love relationships, made love less mystifying.
Based on Bowlby’s attachment theory, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy conceptualizes love as an attachment process. The attachment perspective on adult love suggests that secure bonds are built on interactions in which partners, who are perceived as attachment figures, are accessible and responsive to each other’s attachment needs.
The availability of an attachment figure, especially in times of stress and hardships, provides partners with safe haven for expressing their deepest emotions as well as providing and receiving comfort from each other.
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) is one of the most effective approaches that successfully addresses marital distress, infidelity, and history of trauma in a relationship.
Research has shown that 70% of couples recover from marital distress, and 90% of couples experience improvement in the quality of their relationship with an EFT therapist.
The couples report that they continue maintaining positive progress two years after finishing marriage counselling.
The couples report having fewer conflicts, feeling more connected, and are communicating with each other in a more positive and effective way.
Do you feel like you and your partner are losing connection?
Does conflict deplete your marriage?
Do you feel like you love each other, but can’t get along?
Let me help you communicate effectively,
learn conflict resolution skills and strengthen your bond.
We will identify the core of a marriage conflict, uncover the negative cycle that keeps you and your partner feeling disconnected, and rebuild a positive way of relating that makes you and your partner feel safe, appreciated, and loved.
Reconnect and Rebuild Your Relationship.
If you feel like you and your partner are losing connection, conflict depletes your marriage, you love each other, but can’t get along, and you would like to communicate more effectively, feel connected and trust each other again, Online Couples Counseling is for you!
Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) is one of the most effective approaches that successfully addresses marital distress, infidelity, and history of trauma in a relationship.
Reclaim Your Life
After Infidelity and Trauma.
Restore Trust.
Reconnect and Rebuild Your Relationship.
Trauma impacts the quality of couples’ relationships.
Infidelity is devastating to a marriage.
The partner, whose trust was broken by infidelity, experiences tremendous emotional pain, has a high level of distress, which makes it hard for this person to feel safe.
Reignite passion in your relationship.
Intimacy Therapy is an integral part of marriage counseling.
Intimacy and sex are important aspects of any romantic relationship, but they can be difficult to talk about.
Feeling vulnerable, fears of rejection, inadequacy, a past history of trauma, and/or insecure attachment styles may impact couples' relationships and be the cause for couples' struggles with physical intimacy.
Build a strong foundation for a happy marriage.
Preparing for marriage can be both exciting and overwhelming.
Premarital counseling helps couples build a strong foundation for a happy and fulfilling marriage by identifying potential challenges and developing the tools to overcome them.
Find Hope. Heal. Thrive.
If you survived a traumatic event, experience stress and anxiety,
and it is affecting your relationship and overall emotional well-being,
I am here to help.
I offer online individual counseling to help you heal and feel happy again.
Reconnect with your loved one.
I provide family counseling for parents and their adult children who want to rebuild connection, improve relationship and communication.
Family counseling can also help couples and individuals work through issues related to parenting, in-laws, and other family dynamics.
My name is Angel. After graduating from California State University of Fullerton with a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have been providing counseling to couples, children, individuals, and families for over 16 years. I also worked for a drug and alcohol rehabilitation organization helping teenagers feel greater self-worth, overcome addiction, and reconnect with their families.
I see the profession of a marriage and family therapist as one that brings fulfillment and meaning into my life by helping others. My personal background has significantly influenced my decision of pursuing the profession of a counselor.
My life had been filled with a mix of happy moments and painful traumas. Healing was a challenging journey that required immense inner work. Even though it's not easy, I know that it is possible to break the cycle of abuse, heal from trauma and create a happy and fulfilling life.
When I am not providing counseling, I love spending time with my husband, my 33-year old son and our two little dogs Mika and Kona. My favorite activities are swimming, being in nature, doing yoga, and reading books. I also enjoy alone time for recharging and self-reflection. I value kindness, a sense of wonder and openness to new experiences and ideas.
It’s natural to argue or disagree on occasion. But when you fight more than you talk, feel angry and disconnected rather than close and loving, and your relationship becomes more painful rather than happy, it is time to seek help before it gets worse.
Some couples prefer to have weekly online marriage counseling sessions, while others prefer bi-weekly couples counseling sessions.
Usually, the average length of couples counseling is about 5 to 12 sessions. However, each couple is unique, so the length of marriage counseling can be different for each couple.
Counseling sessions typically last 50 minutes to an hour.
I also offer 2-hour online marriage counseling sessions for couples who struggle with severe marital distress and want to achieve rapid results.
