Your appointment is saved after completing your intake forms.

Hello,  

Thanks for reaching out, I know seeking counseling can make you nervous in what to expect but a neutral person can help you both reach your goals with assignments and open communication.

As Family Therapists in the Lake Mary area. We work with couples and individuals trying to communicate better, respectfully again in their relationships to feel heard and valued. Couples can get stuck in not communicating effectively to their partner, their needs and concerns, in a way and time that is heard and as a result dismissed at times. Your feelings and concerns matter and they matter to us. 

We can help you express your needs in a way you're heard and changes occur.  We will actively listen for patterns of communication and negative patterns that keep your message from reaching your partner and assign you techniques to practice at home for changes to occur. We will also point out the positive things in your relationship which are there as well. 

We will work on one main issue at a time to reach acceptance and ownership of certain behaviors that  contribute to the gridlock and then focus on the solution, healing and building trust or connection again. 

We feel very empathetic to people with emotional pain, we can help you see your value and contributions to the relationship to heal, grow and forgive or help you make the decisions that are needed when you are ready. 

We don't wish for people to go through it alone.  We can help you heal and communicate your needs while feeling respected. 

Counseling can be needed before marriage, during or when considering separation. 

We see couples, individuals and teens. NO SMALL CHILDREN under 13 in the office. 

We help reduce depressive symptoms, anxiety, trauma and help you reach your personal goals as well individually.

Online appointments are for self pay or established clients only.

I'm passionate about the staff I hire to provide love and compassion while motivating changes and having the exp. to make a difference.

  • Marla Garcia Grad Student

    Hi, I’m Marla Garcia, and a Grad Student from Messiah University.  My desire has always been to help people in their time of need. Being in a counseling setting I realized that this is the path suited for me. I would like to help clients overcome fear, anxiety, depression, and thoughts of suicide. Knowing that there is so much that goes into a marriage and into a family we can get lost in our day-to-day lives and lose who we are. I plan to give my clients the tools they need in order to regain confidence, live happy, and endure while moving forward. Rates are $50 or sliding scale if needed.
