Mary Canzoneri
I’m a marriage and family therapist who helps individuals and couples navigate the complexities of relationships—whether that’s improving communication, rebuilding trust, or finding clarity during times of change. I help people make sense of their relationships—when things feel confusing, distant, or stuck.
I use humor and real-life examples to make therapy feel approachable—because sometimes a little laughter and honesty help things click.
I support clients in building healthy patterns that lead to meaningful, resilient connections. My goal is to help people create stronger, more authentic connections with themselves and others.
First session
As a marriage and family therapist, I bring humor, compassion, and authenticity to our first session. I want you to feel comfortable being yourself as we get to know each other and explore what brings you here. Together, we’ll create a safe, supportive space for real connection and growth. Are you concerned about your partner not wanting to attend with you? Don't be - couples therapy supports both the relationship and each partner as an individual—I make space for each person to express their own needs, values, and goals while we also work on how they function together. I emphasize that honoring individuality actually strengthens the relationship because it helps partners understand each other and communicate more effectively.
Strengths
My style is warm, conversational, and genuine. I use humor and real-life examples to make therapy feel approachable—because sometimes a little laughter and honesty help things click. I believe change happens through collaboration, so we’ll define your goals together, check in often, and keep the process flexible and human. My role is to help you recognize patterns, understand the emotions underneath, and practice new ways of relating that bring ease, balance, and authenticity back into your relationships.
Treatment methods
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
This is rooted in attachment theory. It focuses on identifying negative cycles and creating stronger bonds while improving emotional regulation.
Couples Counseling
Couples counseling looks for unhelpful patterns and together we will create more peaceful ways of communicating.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I use Solution-Focused Therapy in couples therapy by helping partners describe their preferred future, identify small exceptions when things already work, and take small, concrete steps toward those behaviors. Focus on strengths and future possibilities rather than problems or past conflicts.
