Couples Counseling is Elvina's specialization and passion.
She is trained and capable to see other types of clients-teenagers, individual clients, families-but she has chosen to focus her time and efforts on couples counseling.
She loves the nature of the work-helping two people that are motivated to change, improve, and grow closer as a team.
Of course, relationship counseling means working through conflicts and hurt, sometimes involving heavy issues like infidelity, sex addiction, gambling addiction, alcoholism, long term unemployment, bankruptcy, and the after effects of childhood abuse.

Therapy is productive if it can achieve those two things-the couple can walk away feeling like there is closure to the past as well as having practical actions they can take to improve their relationship.
Couples therapy theories and methods have improved greatly in the last few decades, with research showing much higher success rates.
I personally chose to specialize in this area because of the high success rate I saw in my clients.
Successful couples therapy requires both of you to be committed to "fighting for" the relationship-a mutual dedication that neither of you will give up and walk away.
