Hey!
I'm Mariam, a couples and relationship counselor deeply invested in guiding individuals toward transformative growth in their connections. Drawing inspiration from Gottman's theory, my therapeutic approach is rooted in creating a safe and supportive space for clients to explore and evolve.
In my counseling sessions, I bring a blend of humor and transparency-always committed to telling it like it is. In my role as a couples therapist, l operate as a translator for emotions and dynamics. Bridging the communication gap, I help clients understand each other through interpretation. My goal is to equip clients with the tools to navigate challenges; encourage them to slow down and recognize the roles they play in their relationship dynamics; and instigate lasting positive change within their relationships.
Beyond my counseling practice, l'm an avid lover of travel, fitness, and quality time with loved ones. My heart finds joy in exploring Ivory Coast, where I cherish family visits and indulge in the incredible local cuisine.
Cooking and experimenting with new recipes are some of my favorite pastimes when I'm not in the counseling room.
Join me on the journey to understanding, growth, and creating lasting connections.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
