Couples Therapy & Marriage Counseling Serving Orinda, CA
Welcome!
Orinda has a quiet, tucked-away quality that many residents love, but sometimes that same sense of privacy can make it harder to reach out for help, especially when it comes to your relationship. If you’ve been struggling and haven’t known where to turn, we’re glad you found us.
Renewed Relationships Counseling Group works exclusively with couples and individuals using Emotionally Focused Therapy, the most research-backed approach in couples therapy and the foundation of everything we do. Our practice is led by one of California’s few Certified EFT Therapists and Supervisors, and every therapist on our team is trained and supervised to that standard.
We regularly work with couples from Orinda and the surrounding Lamorinda area – in person at our Danville office, accessible via Highway 24 and I-680, or online from anywhere in California for those who prefer the convenience of sessions from home.
Most couples who come to us feel caught in the same cycle, the same argument, the same silence, the same distance. That pattern can shift. With the right support, most couples start to notice a real difference within the first few weeks of focused work.
