Mara Alverson, MFT
Certified Emotionally Focused Couples Therapist Santa Cruz, California |
Welcome! I have been working with couples for over 40 years as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I use a way of working that produces immediate and powerful change (Emotionally Focused Couples' Therapy) and I love watching my couples deepen their relationship from week to week, strengthening their bonds of love and security. This makes everything possible: intimate, joyful relating with each other, confidence and relaxed success in the work world, and united and successful parenting. How can couples therapy affect all these areas? When we, as individuals, know that we have the love and secure attachment that we crave and need, we can handle anything!
I provide unconditional support, honesty and confidentiality for my clients. I encourage you to give me feedback every step of the way so that we can be sure your concerns and needs are being met. I am so excited to share this work with you and look forward to watching the transformation in your relationship. Please contact me to schedule a conversation about how we can work together to create the relationship you want.. |
