Meredith Silversmith, MA, LMFT
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Co-Founder | Clinical Director
Over the past six years, I’ve worked with over 100 couples.
I’ve had the opportunity to support, empower, and teach these couples how to be happy together again. So many were simply missing the tools needed to create the relationship they wanted. They didn’t know the “rules” of healthy communication, fighting constructively, and repairing the breaks between them. As communication broke down, they’d begin to feel emotionally disconnected, and lost passion in their intimate relationship.
Most partners entered into their relationship with specific expectations of what it would be like, how they’d spend their time, and the ways in which their partner would show them love. Often, this was unspoken - which led to chronic conflict and feeling disappointed.
Relationship coaching provides me the opportunity to work with motivated couples in a powerful way. My focus is on helping my clients move forward quickly and effectively through assessment, education, concrete strategies, and accountability.
When you understand why couples fight and how unresolved conflicts snowball into deep resentment and unhappiness, you’re able to help reverse (and repair) it. I believe teaching the underlying principles allows each partner to trust the process and invest in making changes. I ensure my clients understand the “why” before I ask them to do things differently.
I love working with couples. I love helping my clients identify specific steps they can take right away to positively impact their relationship. I often encounter couples who believe things will never be the way they once were - and am thrilled to show them that doesn’t have to be the case.
Here’s what you can expect from our work together:
>> Clarity on the stumbling blocks in your relationship and concrete strategies for how to overcome them for good
>> Actions you can take immediately to improve the feel of your relationship (it’s easier than you think)
>> An understanding of how to stop chronic conflict in its tracks
>> Tools for resolving disagreements without having a blow-out argument
>> A specific plan to deepen and enhance three core areas in your relationship:
Friendship
Emotional intimacy
Physical intimacy
>> Having your needs truly heard, understood, and valued by your partner
>> A more passionate and fulfilling sex life
