Do You Have a Climate of Compassion in Your Marriage?
Practicing kindness on a daily basis with your partner and learning to contain anything that is unkind will transform your relationship.
Ms Evelyn Shafner
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
“Experiencing peace and joy is our birthright whether with ourselves or in relationships.”
About Me
Experiencing peace and joy is indeed our birthright, both within ourselves and in our relationships. I help individuals and couples cultivate this profound sense of well-being. We can explore patterns that hold you back, gently uncovering new ways to connect and communicate. My approach supports you in finding lasting harmony, building stronger bonds and feeling more at ease. Clients discover practical tools for daily life.
Approach
Therapy here moves from gentle curiosity into concrete steps that shift how you relate and feel with yourself and partners. In my Los Angeles office and through secure online sessions in English, I keep a steady, paced focus—short check-ins, structured dialogues, and practical experiments to try between meetings. I guide couples and individuals through patterned interactions using attuned mirroring and skill practice so connection becomes easier and communication clearer. People seeking calmer, more connected relationships often find this way of working helpful.
