What My Couples Have to Say

"Our marriage is healthier, our home is happier, and we’re having fun again."

My spouse and I are very grateful for Lisa. We have made great strides by working with her over the past 13 months. She's helped us to get our issues on the table, to acknowledge the other's concerns, and she's given us very practical tools to work through our differences. Our marriage is healthier, our home is happier, our children have improved role models, and we're having way more fun as a couple - like we did before kids.

"We wouldn’t have the happy, healthy marriage we have today without Lisa."

My husband and I have been seeing Lisa on and off since 2016. She has been a crucial part of keeping our marriage happily in tact. Lisa has a way of understanding what we are attempting to say to our partner, and helps us hear what we're each trying to say to one another. We jokingly refer to her as our love translator. She is able to take situations that have happened in your past and tie them to behaviors or communication styles you are presenting as an adult. Lisa does an excellent job of helping you feel heard and loved and is able to help us see the love we have for each other even when we aren't able to see it ourselves. I truly believe we would not have the happy/healthy marriage we have right now if not for Lisa.

"The best therapist I've ever been to"

"Lisa Kaplan is hands down the best therapist I've ever been to (and I myself am a therapist). Compassion, evidence-based skillfulness, and heartfelt care for our relationship from Lisa helped my partner and I see each other's inner children. There's just no way I can withdraw from or be argumentative when I see my partner's inner child in there. When she and I come from the place of our skills we learned from Lisa we literally don't argue. We went from nearly breaking up to being in the best relationship of our lives. I have the love we are all innately worthy of, simply because of Lisa Kaplan…

…Lisa's vibe is calm and gentle both virtually and in-person. The ambiance is perfect!"

"Fair and unbiased"

She's a good listener and offers practical and sound advice. Reading the other reviews, it's natural to be unhappy when someone doesn't take your position. The purpose of therapy isn't to have someone agree with you. It's really to help you work through your own issues and have a mature outside perspective.

"Extremely helpful and balanced"

My wife and I found Lisa to be extremely helpful and balanced during her sessions. She works with us regularly and we have seen real change and growth in our relationship. She was able to identify specific actions that were taking away from our goal of a happy marriage. We have been to a few therapists over the years and I have always felt that they were a bit biased towards my wife. I never felt that way here!

"With Lisa’s wisdom and guidance, you’ll feel safe, heard, and empowered."

Lisa helps couples communicate and connect on a deep, real level. She focuses on core issues and strengths, offering lasting solutions—not quick fixes. With her wisdom and guidance, you'll feel safe, heard, and empowered."

"Got our relationship back on solid ground"

Lisa helped us see and solve a major obstacle and a bunch of smaller ones that got our relationship back on solid ground. Years later we are still very grateful for Lisa's gifts.

"Lisa really is amazing"

Lisa really is amazing! After 30 years of marriage we needed a tune-up. Lisa was able to get us back on track in no time! She taught us that it's all about communication and timing; she worked hard (and succeeded) at getting us to see the goodness in each other. Her methodology combined with a wonderful personality was super effective for us. Thank you so much Lisa!

"Helped us find each other all over again"

My husband and I finally agreed to seek counseling after 27 yrs. Our marriage was struggling for a few years lacking in "healthy communication". She has helped us find each other all over again. My husband was adamant to NOT seek a therapists help for many years. We are truly grateful for Lisa's expertise on bringing the "spark" back into our marriage. Amazing how we can calmly listen and communicate since our first counsel. Her drive to listen and hear each others concerns was amazing to us. We now can recognize things in a much more positive way...Highly recommend Lisa for any marriage help one may need. She did wonders for us...

"Our marriage has taken a wonderful turn"

My husband and I hit an impasse several months ago and sought Lisa's help. Within one session we were back on the path to reconnecting. Lisa gave us a couple of excellent tools to use on an ongoing basis to communicate on a deeper and more productive level, and over the course of a couple of months she helped us practice using these tools. Our marriage has taken a wonderful turn and it was amazing how quickly we were able to move towards each other again, instead of away. We totally recommend Lisa.

"Helped us learn to communicate in a more healthy way"

I originally contacted Lisa because we reached a point where we had a total communication breakdown to the point where we couldn't enjoy each other's company the same anymore. Lisa helped us learn how to communicate in a more healthy way. We rarely bicker anymore, but when we do, we now know how to get ourselves out of it quickly and keep the peace. We are now on the same team. We are so much happier now have fun together every day:) Thank you Lisa for helping us get back on track!!!
