About

Online counseling serving MD, VA and DC.

Struggling to connect with your partner? Frustrated that your partner doesn't listen to you? Tired of arguing, fighting?

I can help!

For almost 20 years, my practice has focused on helping individuals and couples repair their relationships. I have attended advanced classes and learned proven and perfected tools and techniques. I will provide you with the knowledge and expertise to help you reconnect and manage fights, so that you will continue to share a meaningful future.
My style of couple counseling conveys empathy, collaboration and objectivity. Couples who come for therapy feel heard and supported. They feel validated. Their pain and issues are dealt with care and fairness.

My advanced training in the Gottman's couple counseling, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Prepare Enrich counseling.
Following therapy, using the customized tools, couples feel more connected, feel the love and bonding that initially brought them together. This helps them identify problems much faster and use the tools to prevent escalation, regulate conflicts and repair fights.

Following therapy, couples feel more confident in their pursuits of a happy togetherness.

Prior to counseling, I practiced as a midwife and maternal child nurse and lactation consultant, working with couple and individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds and different settings. This has led me to the awareness of the need to help people holistically.

Here is what couples said after finishing therapy with me:

"Thank you, Orly for teaching us how to manage a conflict and give us hope. We are doing great! We use the new skills that we've gained on a regular basis. It feels good to be successful and connected!!! C & B
