A Message From Our President
I’m so glad you’ve found your way to this webpage and I’m delighted to introduce you to Well Marriage Center and our team, mission, and vision. At its heart, Well Marriage Center is an effort to disrupt business models that don’t prioritize us therapists. We are reimagining private practice and as a group prioritizing what therapists want, need, and may have struggled to achieve in traditional private work. What this means is we are committed to bringing the best parts of private practice – autonomy and financial potential – to a specialized team setting for a richer vocational experience. Doing what’s best for therapists means everything to us and to me, and as you learn more about Well Marriage Center and the movement we’re creating together, I’m confident you’ll see that mindset permeate our approach in everything we do. I hope we get a chance to meet one another and talk about this exciting field of couples work!

Our Niche
Well Marriage Center is a group of therapists enjoying the challenges and rewards of specializing in one of the most difficult forms of therapy: couples! Our clinical mission is to provide the highest quality couples counseling to our communities by assisting couples in changing/healing longstanding toxic relationship patterns and learning new skills for deep and thriving relationships. If you love working with couples, we’re confident this can be a place where you find professional success and vocational fulfillment.
5 Best Reasons to Join Our Movement
Hear From Our Therapists
1. Clinical Actualization
We believe therapy is both a calling and a craft, and that each therapist carries within them a unique capacity for mastery. We want that for you! At Well Marriage Center, clinical actualization means creating the conditions for every clinician to grow into their fullest potential, not just for today’s work, but for a lifelong career of deepening skill, wisdom, and impact.
We provide the training, mentorship, and collaborative space to keep evolving as practitioners. This isn’t about checking boxes or collecting CEUs; it’s about cultivating clinical artistry and effectiveness that changes lives. Together, we nurture curiosity, creativity, and courage so that each therapist can bring their best to the couples they serve.
2. Depth Clinical Work
At the heart of couples therapy is the courage to go beyond surface fixes. We believe real healing and transformation happen when therapists guide couples into the deeper layers of their relationship – where patterns are formed, pain is carried, and possibility is waiting. This kind of work requires time, skill, and presence. It means resisting the quick-fix mentality that dominates too much of the mental health field and instead committing to the steady, transformative process that can change lives and futures.
We see therapy as a journey, not a transaction. Couples come to us seeking more than symptom relief; they’re longing for renewal, restoration, and connection that lasts. Our role is to honor that longing and help facilitate change that’s not just temporary, but enduring.
3. Clinical Autonomy
We believe therapy is most powerful when clinicians are trusted to lead the work. At Well Marriage Center, clinical autonomy means the freedom to bring your training, intuition, and professional judgment fully into the room with couples. You are empowered to practice in ways that reflect your unique style and clinical wisdom, knowing that we respect the art and science of therapy as something no system can reduce to checkboxes or scripts.
We’ve built a center where decisions about treatment stay in the hands of therapists. You decide how to pace the work, which interventions fit best, and how to navigate the complexity of relationships in front of you. While we share a common mission and uphold standards of excellence, the path each therapist takes is their own. This trust in clinical judgment not only honors your expertise, it creates the conditions for couples to receive the deepest, most authentic care possible.
4. Belonging
While autonomy allows us to thrive as individuals, belonging reminds us we don’t do this work in isolation. We’ve built a clinical community where connection is real and sustaining. We gather for training, explore meaningful topics together, and support one another through consultations and peer groups. Here, your whole self, both as a person and as a clinician, is seen, valued, and supported.
Belonging means learning from one another, celebrating each other’s growth, and having a place to turn during the inevitable challenges of this work. It’s the balance of independence and connection, woven together into a professional home that makes us stronger as therapists and as people.
5. Legacy
As a community of relationship specialists, we aspire to impact the places where we live in ways that go beyond storefront therapy services. We envision ourselves as part of the evolving story and cultural mythology of relationships in our communities. We want to participate and help lead the larger conversations around what couples are struggling with, what actually works in relationships, and what committed partnership might look like for future generations.
We believe couples counseling should be woven into the fabric of community life. This means connecting with places of worship, parenting circles, social groups – anywhere people are gathering to ask the big questions about love, intimacy, commitment, and connection. If we do this well, if we embed ourselves in the real-life transformation already underway, we won’t just create a strong counseling center. We’ll contribute to a lasting legacy: advancing the support of healthier relationships, stronger families, and a more compassionate culture around partnership and mental health.
The Logistical Details
We might be a center in name, but it won’t feel like a center in practice, and that’s purposeful. We’ve tried to create a type of turn-key private practice with all the support a therapist could ever hope to have. Here are some of the details:
We value financial autonomy and potential
This will feel like a private practice in terms of income. The more hours you do the more income you generate. It’s very important to us that therapists who perform 20 clinical hours a week make over $100,000. Depending on the area you are in, you can make significantly more than that.
We are out-of-network with insurance companies
All our clients are private-pay clients.
You get to do what you wanted to do when you got into this clinical field
Focus on client care!
We take care of all the business elements for you:
- We have an in-house, dedicated operations manager who takes care of all office and business logistics for you. HVAC isn’t working? Email them and they’ll do the rest. Get a subpoena (very, very rare)? Email them and they’ll take care of it. Need help with a client’s superbill that isn’t loading right for them? Email them and they’re on it! We support you with whatever you need.
- We have an in-house, dedicated intake team who take care of all incoming referrals for you. With private-pay clients, the amount of calls that actually turn into clients for most therapists isn’t high. We have trained intake specialists who talk with referrals, get them into your schedule, get them all your paperwork, and get them fully ready for your first session. We’ve even streamlined communication processes so that you update your schedule whenever and however you want. Full? No problem. Need clients? We got `em! You let us know the amount of hours you want and when those hours are. We do the rest.
- We have an in-house, dedicated marketing specialist whose job is to make you look good! We do all the marketing and get all the referrals for therapists. We have over 10 years of proven marketing strategies and often have more referrals than our therapists can handle, which is always a good problem to have.
This is not a position that requires a lot of paperwork
We keep things simple and streamlined.
Great benefits
401k and CEU investment for all, and access to health insurance benefits for 27+ hours/week caseloads.
You get the highest quality training
We believe couples counseling is a lifelong journey. We also believe strongly in supporting you along that journey with the highest quality trainings we can provide. The training we’ve found most helpful and inclusive is the Developmental Model for Couples: Differentiation, Attachment, and Neuroscience. It’s developed by Dr. Ellyn Bader and offered through her Couples Institute in San Francisco. It’s a top notch, year-long program (written lessons with once a month calls) offered online, and is something we provide for every therapist who joins us. It’s a truly wonderful framework for helping couples and has resonated more than anything else with our team.
We are a group of 35+ therapists
The best part of Well Marriage Center for many of us is the camaraderie. There is a wonderful spirit of collegiality within our team, always someone who will be glad to do a case consult with you, and certainly a sense of belonging to something special. We meet in small groups once a month and also set aside time to be together as a whole team several times a year.
The Bottom Line
The reason for our success is therapists. Our team has developed an amazing reputation in each of our communities because of the helpful and hopeful way they’ve supported relationships. We believe every community should have a specialized couples clinic. As we continue to grow, we do it by honoring therapists. Every business decision we make uses this criteria: Will it be good for the therapists?
