Maureen Leigh-Magee

After more than 20 years as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I remain continually moved by the courage it takes for couples to seek growth together. Relationships ask so much of us—patience, vulnerability, forgiveness, and an openness to being changed by love. Even the strongest partnerships can lose their way at times, not because something is broken, but because every relationship is a living, evolving process that needs care and attention to thrive.

I believe that beneath every moment of disconnection lies a longing to be understood. When couples feel truly seen and heard, something powerful begins to shift. The space between them softens. Hope returns. Real connection becomes possible again.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based methods, including the work of Dr. John Gottman, Dr. Sue Johnson, but guided by something deeply human: the belief that love is both a skill and a practice. Together, we explore patterns that keep you stuck, develop tools for authentic communication, and build the foundation for a partnership rooted in trust, respect, and emotional safety.

Therapy is not about fixing one another—it’s about remembering who you are together, and choosing, with intention, how you want to grow. My role is to create a compassionate space where that discovery can happen—a space where honesty, curiosity, and hope can take root. The work we do together is about more than resolving conflict; it’s about creating a relationship that supports your growth, honors your individuality, and strengthens your bond. My goal is to help you build something lasting: a partnership defined by empathy, honesty, and care.
