For Davie couples, families along the Pine Island corridor, NSU students and residents, long-married partners in the western neighborhoods, therapy makes room for the conversation the week keeps interrupting. In-person at the Weston office · Telehealth across Florida · English / Español [Contact Maria](/contact) [About couples counseling](/couples-counseling) ![Two warm linen armchairs facing each other, couples counseling for Davie, FL with Maria Van Thienen, LMFT](/assets/couples-D_Jxn6tJ.jpg) Davie, FL ## About working with clients from _Davie_. Davie spans a wide range, equestrian neighborhoods, family subdivisions, and a large university and medical-school population at NSU. The relationships that come into therapy here vary just as much: newly committed graduate students, parents in the busy middle years, long-married couples renegotiating an empty nest. Maria's office is in Weston, only 10 to 15 minutes west. Many Davie couples come in person weekly or biweekly; for the harder weeks, secure telehealth keeps the work consistent. Sessions are warm, structured, and non-blaming. The focus is the pattern between you, what each of you is asking for underneath the argument, and how to rebuild the small daily moments that make a partnership feel like one. With 30+ years of experience, Maria has worked with most of the shapes a relationship can take. Bilingual throughout (English / Español), useful for the many bicultural couples across the county. What we work on ## The shape of the _work_. - Recurring arguments that don't resolve - Communication and listening - Early-relationship skills - Parenting and co-parenting - Repair after rupture or affair - Intimacy and connection - Graduate / residency-stage couples - Bilingual / bicultural couples Modality ## Warm, structured, non-blaming. The work focuses on the pattern between you rather than fault. Sessions are paced so neither partner leaves more flooded than they arrived. When trauma is in the room, EMDR-informed tools can support repair.
