Book with Celina Alvarez Marroquin Couples therapy
Couples therapy for partners navigating different cultures.
When partners come from different cultures, ordinary disagreements can carry extra weight: family expectations, unspoken rules about money or parenting or in-laws, and two different ideas of what love is supposed to look like.
Sound familiar?
You might be in the right place if…
-
Your relationship conflicts are connected to your different backgrounds and family expectations.
-
One or both families have strong opinions, and the boundaries are hard to hold as a team.
-
Guilt and obligation to family keep landing in the middle of your relationship.
-
You keep having the same argument, and it is really about something deeper than the topic.
How we can help
What this work looks like here
We help couples untangle recurring conflict and rebuild understanding, with the cultural layer treated as a real part of the picture rather than background noise. That includes interracial and intercultural relationships, immigrant-generation differences between partners, and negotiating family-of-origin expectations together.
Celina Alvarez Marroquin focuses on couples, families, and acculturation, and also offers in-person sessions in Rochester, NY. Sessions are otherwise by secure video across California and New York.
