Mrs. Elisa Duger

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist | LMFT

I provide remote services only

For Couples
We seek to help couples in finding an emotionally safe space where they can determine what would bring peace back to the relationship. Oftentimes, emotions such as anger or resentment can divide a relationship and create a sense of hopelessness. We want to join with you as a couple – married or otherwise – to help you understand each other again and provide steps for reaching the future goals of your partnership. Through these conversations, we will seek to ensure Christ is firmly at the head of the marriage.

For Couples Considering Marriage
Premarital counseling has been shown to help facilitate the transition from dating to marriage by giving couples the opportunity to plan for their future and build skills necessary to create a strong marriage. We will explore topics such as communication patterns, love styles, conflict resolution, religion, dual careers, parenting, intimacy, finances, and more.

Elisa is also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as a trauma response therapy.
