“What I really love about my work as a Marriage Counselor and Psychotherapist is that I get to help people to feel better, whether that be to help them get relief from anxiety or stress in their life or relationships, or help them to understand, make adjustments and communicate through relationship difficulties so they can find joy and passion in their relationships again.” – Lori J Collins, MS, MFT

On a personal note, Lori is married and has raised her kids in Redwood City, California. She feels being married to her husband, Patrick since 1989, over 30 years, provides some of her best experience in working with individuals and couples with relationship issues. She often jokes that sitting in the therapist or coaches chair is the easy chair, referring to understanding what it’s like to be in the trenches of real married life.
