Couples Therapy

Virtual Couples & Marriage Counseling in Mississippi

Together, we can:

Strengthen. Improve communication, handle life stressors together, stop having the same arguments over and over.

Deepen. Create a shared vision for the future, support each other’s dreams, build a foundation of friendship and empathy.

Rebuild. Redesign your relationship with trust, intimacy and understanding, have fun together again.

Couples come to therapy for many reasons. You might feel…

  • in crisis within your relationship

  • disconnected from the passion you once shared

  • confused about what you’re feeling

  • lacking in communication tools for couples

  • unsure how to approach relationship conflict resolution

No matter the current state of your relationship, we’ll explore what’s really happening beneath the surface and understand the emotions driving your patterns. With that clarity, we can develop tailored skills to help you create a more fulfilling relationship.

The introduction call is free and should last about 15 minutes. It’s an opportunity to get to know each other, answer any questions, and make sure I’m the best fit for your needs. If it feels right, we’ll schedule your first appointment and begin our work together.

Existing clients: Please call or log into the client portal to message and schedule appointments.

  • We start with a free, 15-minute introduction call.

    Once you decide to move forward, session prices are as follows:

    • Couples Counseling (50 minutes) - $165

    • Couples Counseling (90 minutes) - $265

  • I accept all major credit/debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover).

    I currently do not accept insurance for couples counseling.

  • Most couples work with me for 8–12 sessions, depending on their goals and the complexity of their concerns. Some see meaningful improvement in just a few sessions, while others choose to continue longer for deeper work. We’ll decide together what timeline fits your needs.

  • We’ll meet virtually for every session. You can join from the comfort of your home or another private space where you feel at ease.

    All sessions take place through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You can join from anywhere in Mississippi.

  • I work with adult couples in Mississippi who are married, dating, or engaged. Some are preparing for marriage, some are unsure where they stand, and others are on the brink of separation and looking for clarity.

    Therapy works best when both partners are willing to show up and do the work, and I support couples who are ready to make meaningful changes together.

    Couples of all genders and sexual identities are welcome. I have experience working with LGBTQ+ clients and strive to create a safe, affirming space for everyone.

  • Couples therapy isn’t effective or appropriate in every situation. In the cases below, I generally recommend individual therapy and/or a psychiatric evaluation instead:

    • Serious, unmanaged mental health concerns (including thoughts of harming yourself or others)

    • Ongoing substance use that isn’t in treatment

    • One-directional abuse or violence

    Couples therapy also relies on honesty and openness. If either partner is unwilling to be transparent in the process, progress becomes very limited.

  • I do not currently accept insurance for couples counseling.
