Welcome to Well Marriage Center
A Message From Our Team
Well Marriage Center is both family-owned and therapist-owned, which means the heart of our work is deeply personal. We’re not part of a big corporation or a one-size-fits-all mental health chain. Every decision we make, every therapist who joins us, and every program we offer is shaped by people who are directly invested in the success and well-being of the couples we serve.
From the beginning, we chose to do one thing and do it exceptionally well: couples therapy. We’ve built our practice exclusively around helping partners navigate challenges, heal hurts, rebuild trust, and rediscover connection. This specialization means you’ll work with a therapist who is not only highly trained, but also deeply experienced in the unique dynamics of relationships.
Our team understands the courage it takes to reach out for help – especially when the stakes feel high. That’s why we’ve devoted ourselves to creating a safe, skilled, and hopeful space where couples can have real conversations, address the heart of their challenges, and take meaningful steps toward the relationship they want.
Whether you’re facing a major crisis or simply want to grow stronger together, you’ll find a partner in us who is committed to your journey. At Well Marriage Center, your relationship matters too much for anything less than our best.
Sincerely,
The Well Marriage Center Therapist Team
and many more locations & counselors!

How We Help Couples
We Start with Hope
Even if you’re not sure your relationship can change, we are. We hold that hope with you until you can feel it yourself.
You Work with Relationship Specialists
Couples therapy isn’t a side offering here. Every therapist on our team specializes in relationship work, bringing focus and experience to every session.
We Build a Plan for Your Relationship
No cookie-cutter approaches. We take time to understand your specific patterns and what’s driving the disconnect so we can focus on what matters most.
You Make Changes that Last
We help you understand what’s underneath the conflict so the changes you make are deep and lasting, not just temporary fixes.
Relationship Struggles We Help Fix
Research shows that when couples work with a skilled therapist, counseling can be incredibly effective. Every relationship is unique, but you don’t have to face challenges alone – our specialists are here to walk alongside you with care and expertise. Here are some of the common topics we often explore together in counseling.

Jasmine is the best. We only went a couple of times but learned so much from her. She’s very kind and I would recommend her to anybody.

What do you need in a counselor? Someone who is trustworthy? Capable? Exercises appropriate discretion? Someone who understands and knows how to help? A good person? Sharon Hamilton is all of these. I can't recommend her highly enough. Talk to her. She can help.

Lisa was instrumental in restoring our relationship. We are so grateful. I highly recommend Lisa Ghali.

Working with Lisa Ghali was the best decision we made for our relationship. We felt disconnected and lacking solid communication, but she helped us find our way back to each other. Her empathetic and insightful approach allowed us to address some long-festering issues in a safe space. We felt supported and gained a new perspective on our relationship. Thank you so much, Lisa.

I was hesitant to start marriage counseling but right away Jasmine made us both feel very comfortable. She’s extremely insightful, she really showed us how to communicate with each other productively and helped us work through our problems.

Alexandra Urban was our marriage counselor and she helped us understand each other better. She was empathetic, asked questions to understand what we were thinking, and we are thankful for the help she provided. We only stopped seeing her because we moved to another state.

Holly is an incredible therapist. She is kind and wise and creates a calm environment to process difficult things and work towards new ways of perceiving your situation. I recommend her highly, not just for couples therapy but also for individual therapy.

Quintin is an excellent therapist. He’s extremely understanding and “normal” meaning he’s shows his empathy in sessions and makes things relative. My husband suffers from PTSD and wasn’t ever open or a fan of therapist, that changed with Quintin. We also greatly appreciated that upfront Quintin told us he’s there to advise us “out”. Meaning his goal is for us was to not have to continue therapy, which was refreshing and not something I’ve experienced in my years of therapy. Strong encourage those to leverage Quintin for couples therapy, we’ll certainly use him in the future (needed).

Chae has been an incredible therapist. From our very first session, he created a space that felt safe, thoughtful, and judgment-free, which made it easy to be open and honest. He listens deeply, asks the right questions, and has an amazing ability to help me see things more clearly without ever making me feel rushed or pushed. I always leave sessions feeling lighter, more centered, and better equipped to handle what is in front of me.
He remembers the details, follows up thoughtfully, and tailors his approach in a way that feels very personal. Working with him has made a meaningful difference in how I understand myself and navigate challenges. I am grateful for his support and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate, insightful therapist.

Holly Willard is the perfect person to consult with on life’s circumstances when one desires unbiased, direct, and honest support. Her education and sharing of resources is helpful when navigating through most anything. I highly recommend her as she has a talent for listening, remembering details, and genuinely cares. Holly, along with God’s will for us, is life altering.

Initially set up for marriage counseling but after my now ex decided to renege on counseling, I worked with Gabby on a path forward. She’s absolutely fabulous and understanding. She has helped me and my children navigate our lives though the myriad of changes. She’s helping us focus on healing and supporting each other as a family.

After watching my parents struggle with resentments at the end of their lives, after over 70 years marriage, my husband and I wanted to use this fall to do a long-planned "tune-up" for our wonderful 40-year marriage.
We were blessed to be matched with Lisa Ghali, who was really quite amazing. She listened and laughed with us--pointing out things we didn't always see or appreciate about each other. Our biggest take-aways were learning to communicate even more clearly (because neither of us is a mind-reader!) and asking better questions ("Tell me what you were thinking!"). We so enjoyed our sessions with her and learned strategies to keep the party going for years to come. We've had many health challenges over the years, so we especially appreciate how well she understood the impact of those on our marriage. Most importantly, we learned that there was plenty of blame to go around! Rather than trying to assign blame, we realized we both had "pennies in the nickle."
I also want to thank both Lisa and Office Manager Hannah for working so hard to make sure the Bethesda location could accommodate my physical disability. I truly appreciated that!
We are so grateful for such a lovely experience and highly recommend Well Marriage Center and Lisa Ghali. We will be back whenever we feel the need for another "tune-up" down the road!

Kelly is truly exceptional!! My spouse and I came to her during one of the hardest seasons in our marriage, unsure of how to move forward. From the very first session, Kelly made us feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. She gave us the communication tools, perspective, and guidance we desperately needed to reconnect, understand each other, and rebuild a stronger foundation.
Her approach is compassionate, honest, and practical, and she creates a safe space where real healing and growth can happen. Thanks to Kelly, our marriage is not only in a better place—we are happier, healthier, and more connected than we’ve ever been.
We are truly grateful and highly recommend her to any couple needing support. She changed our lives, and we cannot thank her enough

Dave Wooden is one of the best counselors anyone can have. We were very lucky to work with him. He guided us through what felt like an impossible situation, held us accountable, and taught us things about ourselves, relationships, and our own dynamic that we wouldn't have gleaned from books or on our own. Dave is a great professional who is also very personable, trustworthy, and direct to the point. We highly recommend him and are grateful to him.
Deborah N.

Dr. Beck is an outstanding marriage counselor. She creates a safe, supportive space where both partners feel heard and understood. Her insight, compassion, and ability to guide couples through difficult conversations make a real difference. We’ve found her approach to be both practical and encouraging, and it has helped us move forward in positive ways. I would highly recommend her to any couple looking for meaningful guidance and support.

My wife and I sought marriage counseling after being married for about 11 years at the time. We're glad we found Well Marriage Center. They were professional all throughout the process, from getting an appointment to counseling session. They gave us a list of their certified counselors based on our criteria. Kelly was such a great listener and was really insightful and did indeed help us in our relationship. We highly recommend her.
Julie B.
01:37 03 Aug 25
Kelly is the best! She turned our marriage completely around, including our individual self-care. She is respectful, listens intently, and lets us drive the pace of discussion. She's willing to adjust to meet our needs, both with schedule, therapy approach, and priorities. Kelly is open minded and is an ally to LGBTQ+ couples. I've truly felt from the start that she had our betterment as her goal, and for that she earned my trust.

I can’t recommend Dave highly enough! My partner and I had tried couples therapy before without much success, but working with Dave was truly transformative. He has an incredible ability to get to the heart of the matter while making you feel truly seen and heard. He doesn’t shy away from the hard truths, but he does it in a way that opens your eyes and helps you grow together. Thanks to Dave, we not only improved our communication but also gained a deeper understanding of what a true partnership means. If you’re facing challenges in your relationship, Dave is the person to turn to.

Started good but Quintin legit ghosted us after getting some intake appointments and a few followups. We haven't heard from him in 6 months and I'm guessing they decided they were done with us. I guess its a moot point since its over now but we were making progress.

I had the privilege of working with Rabecca for over six months, and I can confidently say she is an exceptional therapist. She’s an extremely effective communicator—always attentive, insightful, and clear. What really stood out was the range of practical tools she offered throughout our time together, which helped me make meaningful progress. Rabecca also consistently followed up, showing a genuine investment in my growth and well-being. I’m incredibly grateful for the support she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, results-oriented therapist.

I highly recommend Lisa! She was an honest and compassionate guide who helped us gain deeper insight into ourselves and each other. Lisa has a remarkable ability to hold you accountable while encouraging self-reflection without judgment. Through our work with her, we were able to have meaningful conversations, especially about our upbringings and how those experiences have shaped who we are today. This opened up a new level of understanding between us. Our time in Lisa’s office has laid a strong foundation for how we will navigate our future.

Dr. Libby Stevens was amazing to work with. She always met me with compassion and understanding, and helped me tackle some difficult issues by providing direct feedback and exercises, which really helped add structure to my treatment path. Her suggestions and insight demonstrated a solid and up-to-date knowledge-base of the issues I was working on with her.
Communication/logistics with her was very easy as well, as she was easily reachable through email, text, or the secure patient portal app that we used. We always did our appointments virtually through video conference, which made things much more convenient, given my work schedule. However, she also had the option for in-person appointments in her Reston office, if I ever preferred that.
Overall, I would highly recommend Dr. Stevens and WMC, as I feel that this was my most positive and productive experience with personal therapy.

I cannot say enough good things about Nicole Stone. My wife and I have seen her together and individually. She is first off just a cool, interesting person to talk to. But more than that she is an intelligent therapist who always seems to have the right words to help you understand what you are feeling. Whether it's through asking the right questions or helping you interpret your own feelings Nicole is always spot on. She has been a huge help for both of us and I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Nicole!

Valerie Patton has been our therapist, both for individual and couples counseling. Her help was invaluable. Our marriage communication has improved dramatically. This has enabled my husband and I to reduce conflict and resolve difficult topics. Valerie is intuitive, empathic, and skilled. Her support and positive feedback enabled me to become more confidant and positive about myself. I felt “seen” with Valerie. I truly cannot fully express my gratitude to her but I hope she knows.

I am incredibly grateful for the transformative experience my husband and I have had with Marissa Josiah of Well Marriage. From the moment we began our sessions, it was clear that we were in the hands of a skilled and compassionate professional. After 19 years of marriage, we hit a point that required professional intervention.
After speaking with and meeting a number of professionals, Marissa's approach was right for us. She is both insightful and empathetic. Marissa created a safe space where we felt comfortable sharing our deepest concerns and challenges. She listened actively and offered practical strategies that helped us navigate complex issues and strengthen our marriage.
What stands out most is Marissa's ability to balance empathy with honest feedback. She guided us through difficult conversations with patience and respect, helping us to see each other's perspectives and fostering a deeper understanding between us. She also set us straight when we became stuck and inflexible with each other. Thanks to her guidance, we've not only improved our communication but also rekindled our connection.
We particularly appreciate the use of evidence-based strategies, thoughtful and tailored exercises, and flexibility in approach. Marissa really went above and beyond to ensure that our therapy was personalized and effective.
Marissa has been a beacon of support and wisdom throughout our journey. We are now in a much stronger place as a couple, and we owe much of that progress to her exceptional skills. We wholeheartedly recommend Marissa to anyone seeking to enhance their relationship and find deeper connection and understanding.
Thank you, Marissa, for everything you’ve done for us!

Holly is amazing. As newly weds, she’s helped us so much! I will forever wish the absolute best for her and her loved ones because she changes couples and marriages for the better. She really helps you understand one another and helps you understand the reality of marriage. Marriage is hard work. When both husband and wife are willing to put in the work selflessly, that’s when the real love flourishes.

Jessica was wonderful and we are so grateful for her help! She is a great 3rd party listener and teacher; she never made either of us feel judged or 'wrong'. I loved that we started by discovering why we communicate the way we do (from family/upbringing, etc..), how to recognize positives and negatives of that, and how to improve our communication in ways the other will understand/respond to. I would highly recommend her!

Marissa is an incredible marriage and relationship counselor. My partner and I suffered from a never ending cycle of miscommunication/constant conflict. She guided us to take a step back and understand what we were actually arguing about and why. She provided effective tools and techniques to help us unpack our wounds and previous traumas so that we could build together more peacefully. Marissa is patient, honest, and most importantly professional. Highly recommend.

Holly is a fantastic therapist. Originally my wife and I went together, but I realized I wanted more help 1:1.

She helped us not only as a couple to work through some tough conversations, but helped us both individually as well. I could not recommend her enough and know my husband feels the same way. She is a gem. Patient and fair, she gets to the root of issues and handles them beautifully. 10/10!!

The Well Marriage Center has been a huge support for me and my husband. We’ve been seeing our amazing counselor for 7+ years now. We started off doing pre-wedding counseling and decided he was so good - we would continue our sessions. He’s been there for us through the good times and bad times. He’s supportive, non judgmental, a good listener, funny (can make light of things) and always has insightful things to say. We always take away great advice and feel better after our sessions. Highly recommend!

Glen is an extraordinary marriage counselor for whom helping couples is clearly not just a passion, but a calling. My husband and I have decades of experience with counselors, because we know that therapeutic insight can lead us to a richness in our relationship that we could never have imagined. Glen is in the top two of those counselors. To those of you debating whether you "need it," everyone benefits from therapy. The view is very different from higher up the mountain, and Glen is one of the very best guides.

Quintin was an absolutely phenomenal marriage counselor. The center in general has many resources which we found helpful.

Quintin was very helpful in providing insight to various situations during our pre-marital counseling. His matter of fact approach to counseling helped put various things in perspective, as well as inspired much introspection and growth.

My Husband and I have been seeing Quintin since about November 2021. It doesn't take problems to seek help, already having the help in place keeps the marriage strong. Quintin is very unbiased and he tells both my Husband and myself not what we want to hear, but what we need to hear! My Husband and I have been together 22 years and married 15 and we needed support for the unexpected and challenging changes of life. Quintin is both fair and honest and I must say my Husband has never received or welcomed counsel as well and as open as he does with Quintin, so for that I am thankful. He's an all around amazing guy! 10/10 would recommend as we still have him for support as needed.

Nicole Stone is an absolutely wonderful therapist and human being. She provided my fiance and I with a phenomenal premarital counseling experience. Although the Well Marriage website seemed a little impersonal at first, when we met Nicole she did a great job helping us feel comfortable and diving into conversation on a schedule that worked for us. Would highly recommend!

Ellen is wonderful to work with—kind-hearted, wise and insightful. She incorporates a variety of practices and philosophies that empower her clients to have greater awareness both of the issues they're grappling with and opportunities to grow from them. I'm forever thankful for my time with her and recommend her highly.

Without a doubt Victoria Ipsen is a true gem in multiple ways. Was a great benefit as we were transitioning to being empty nesters after 25 years of marriage but wanted to get the absolute best out of life together. Victoria helped us sort of our differences, build new common grounds when we didn't realize there were many left. So glad we were lucky enough to find her as a counselor and wouldn't been where we are today without her thoughtful and careful guidance.

Erin has been the best counselor for our pre-marital counseling needs! She really takes the time to understand each of us and acts as a very fair, neutral party when working through issues in the relationship. I would recommend her to anyone looking for marriage counseling! We will definitely continue using her after our wedding for relationship "maintenance" throughout the years.

We worked with Holly for around a year or so. She was always on time, prepared and seldom had scheduling conflicts.
She’s an excellent marriage counselor and helped us navigate through a very difficult period where we could barely communicate effectively with each other. She helped me see what a healthy marriage should look like, how I can better participate in building/maintaining one and mostly that a marriage should be two people living their best lives together. I am grateful for her help and it has helped to live a better life as well as understand how to be an effective partner in a marriage.

Sharon Hamilton is a great marriage counselor! We have been working with her for a few years and will continue engaging with her for the foreseeable future. She has helped us navigate our different communication styles and is thoughtful and creative in her recommendations for healthy ways to connect and strengthen our marriage. I would recommend her to anyone that is considering counseling. Her approach is very personable and genuine!

We have been working with Mary Rainer-Skala since the middle of 2021 and she has been an amazing resource for our family as we work to navigate a highly challenging period in our lives. And while any success story is one part luck and one park work, this one is certainly also one part Mary.

My wife and I saw Ellen for about five months to help us better communicate effectively. Her philosophy of bettering ourselves first to be better partners for our spouses helped us focus on what we could control (ourselves) instead of picking at ways our partner could improve. Ellen was truly helpful, kind, and patient with us, even when we weren't displaying our best side. She gave us tools, videos, and readings that we continue to leverage routinely. I would highly recommend Ellen Singer when looking for your next couples therapist.

My husband and I were on opposite ends of the spectrum, criticizing each other repeatedly. Glen explained how we needed to deal with this to get our marriage back on track. He counseled each of us individually and as a couple. His comments and suggestions were very insightful. He really listens. I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking marriage counseling. He was the second person we tried, and he's a keeper.

My husband and I started seeing Marissa Josiah before we were even engaged and she really helped create a neutral, safe space for us to learn the ins and outs of our relationship, communicate better and ultimately realize the goals for our relationship and lives together. Even though I individually was seeing a psychologist, Marissa still helped me uncover things about myself and the way I view relationships that transformed my outlook. Marissa is kind, patient and understanding and is really interested in helping people process the reasons they come to see her. You will have to do work and be an active participant in your sessions in order to get the most of it, but I found Marissa had a great step wise approach that didn't seem overwhelming and allowed us to be receptive to the changes we wanted to make.

Working with Ellen was a real pleasure! She was always very warm and made both my husband and I very comfortable. She is an excellent listener and her insight really helped us to turn toward each other instead of away. Working with Ellen was by far the best investment in our marriage, she is a wonderful therapist!!

Ellen Singer is a wonderful marriage counselor! My husband and I spoke with a few therapists before meeting Ellen and after spending a few minutes with her, we agreed she would be a good fit for us. She is warm, kind, and understanding, and we truly felt like she cared about us and our marriage. Not only did she help our marriage, many of the things she taught us have helped with our other relationships as well. Highly recommend her, we miss her now that we no longer see her!

Twelve years ago Ellen saved our marriage, and we are super grateful. We found Ellen when we had been in a deep crisis related to infertility, and our inability to make a shared decision or move forward together. We met with three other previous therapists and some of that made things worse, but Ellen really “got” us. She was so gentle, kind, transparent and wise, and saw us through the worst experience of our lives. Twelve years later we came back to focus on some other issues because we knew that we could trust Ellen to really have both of our best interests at heart. (And we wanted her to know about our two kids!)

Ellen helped us immensely and made our marriage so much stronger. She taught us that we don't always need to share the same point of view to be on the same page, and how to come together when we were the furthest apart. The tools we learned over a year ago we still employ today, and we frequently talk about what Ellen taught us when we stumble. We highly recommend Ellen.

Dr. Marianne Niles is brilliant. My husband and I saw her for a few sessions and she was able to guide us through the center of the issue, and out the other side, by hearing and seeing each other with more compassionate hearts. She led us to remember why we fell in love with each other in the first place.

My husband and I started seeing Lori a couple years ago to help with some problems we were having in our marriage. I can honestly say it was the best decision we have made for our marriage. Thanks to Lori's help I feel like we are happier than we have been in a long time. We just had our last appointment with Lori, but I know that if we ever have any issues in the future Lori will be the first person we call. I cannot recommend her enough.

Dr. Steve was great. My husband and I worked with him in couples and individual counseling and he was able to remain honest and unbiased with us both separately and together. He helped us learn to be more honest with ourselves and each other by being able to point out issues that have been going on for years without us noticing. Now we are confident that we won't be moving backwards.

My wife and I saw Dr Steve for a period of 3-4 months. It was a hard time. We came out of the other side with an amazing new marriage. I was struct how every time Dr Steve was able to correctly identify the real issues at hand and provide good direction how to reconnect in genuine and meaningful ways. I have recommended him to friends and colleagues without hesitation
