Don’t let St. Thomas’ economic transitions impact your relationship’s stability. Our evidence-based therapy helps couples create a secure, loving bond that can withstand both personal and community challenges.

Meet MaryAnn Dawood

I always knew that “The bond between the couple is the heartbeat of the home”. The heartbeat is the life force. When the couples relationship is characterized by a lot of conflict and fighting, it resonates in the home. I knew that when you help a couple, you help them as individuals and you help their home! There is no greater pursuit in my eyes !
