Exclusive discount for video sessions. 30 yrs, Laressa Desmond PhD. MFT, Couples Therapist....PreMarital Counselor. I provide a safe, neutral atmosphere for couples seeking to increase cooperation & stop power struggles. When your relationship gets out of sync I can help you reduce arguments, eliminate confusion & improve your communication. It's painful when resentments & misunderstandings build up tensions.

This allows focus on what's helpful to you & your partner.
You'll feel emotional relief knowing that you have an experienced Couples Therapist working with you to move through the murky struggle & focus on solutions. Best way to reach me is via email. Drop me a line & give me an overview of your issues. Let's see if I'm a good fit for your situation.
