About me

Relationships are wonderful and can also be challenging and confusing at times. Relationships are also unique; each individual comes from a different background and has a different set of experiences. The more you understand yourself – including your emotions and behaviors – the better you can communicate with loved ones (including your spouse).

Every marriage goes through changes. There are times when you feel connected, in love, passionate. There are other times when you feel you are drifting away, you may argue constantly, or simply don’t talk at all. Understanding the cycles of marriage, being creative in nurturing the connection, and giving each other space when needed are important tools that help maintain the dance of marriage.

Hello, I am Dr. Marcela Mejia, a bilingual (Spanish/English) licensed Clinical psychologist in the state of Florida and Virginia. I have experience helping couples navigate their relationships. Counseling sessions are designed to teach you tools that will improve and strengthen your relationship by focusing on communication and conflict resolution.

Congratulations on your decision to take charge of your life. I appreciate your courage and look forward to assisting you on this journey. You don't have to do this alone.
I find my work deeply rewarding and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
