Why Choose Saltwater Souls for Couples Counseling

Your relationship deserves a therapist who respects your history and shared goals. At Saltwater Souls Counseling, you’ll work with a clinician who understands the unique dynamics of LGBTQ+ relationships and helps you move toward connection that’s grounded, resilient, and real.

My approach combines grounded, research-backed therapy with tools that actually work. I draw from the Gottman Method and attachment theory to help clients strengthen connection, work through stress or self-doubt, and shift patterns that keep relationships stuck. The aim is to rebuild trust, improve communication, and restore intimacy in ways that fit your relationship structure. Secure telehealth keeps affirming care accessible anywhere in Florida, from Tampa Bay to Miami and beyond.

The Process

  • I begin with a complimentary 30-minute therapy session with both partners to determine if we’re a good fit for couples therapy together

  • After the consultation, we will jump into our first couples session where we collaboratively set therapeutic goals and begin the process of working together.

  • After the first couple’s session, we will have a session with each individual. I’ll meet with each partner one-on-one to hear your goals, perspectives, and concerns before we sit down together again as a couple.

  • I recommend weekly couples counseling sessions, adjusting the frequency as needed based on our progress.

  • Every 4-6 couples sessions, I will each member of the relationship individually to check in and see how things are going.
