Kelley Hopkins-Alvarez: Manifesting Positive Outcomes 💬 Obsessed with helping your relationship
🧠 Finding your path forward
🩵 Couples & S*x Therapy | Affairs | Discernment My clients are amazing!

They choose me to help them work on relationships. I specialize in : Couples Therapy, Individual Therapy, S*x Therapy, Affair Recovery, Healing Separation, Discernment Counseling, Divorce Recovery and Co-Parenting Counseling. I specialize in relationships First, we start with the relationship with yourself, and we look at your level of self-compassion, as well as compassion for others, as these are highly correlated with therapy success. S*x Therapy- I am an AASECT Certified S*x Therapist & provide my clients a s*x positive, open forum to discuss this very private topic. In our sessions, we explore the possibilities of reconnection for emotional and physical intimacy, As aa Certified S*x Therapist, I have advanced training in relationships including LGBTQ issues, gender & s*xual orientation concerns,, trauma and post-traumatic growth, s*x and disability, kink, non-monogamous relationships, etc. Discernment Counseling- Some clients are not ready for Couples Therapy, please take a look at my three videos which describe what Discernment Counseling for couples is and how it differs from Couples Therapy. http://www.kelleyhopkinsalvarez.com/DiscernmentCounseling.en.html

Healing Separation:
I meet with partners and we discuss the very structured model of a Healing Separation, which is a structured time apart which can help partners heal a relationship that isn't working. For many, after going through this process, it results in transforming and relaunching the existing relationship – moving it from conflict, emotional distance, lack of trust, and/or lack of intimacy, to a more connected, and loving relationship. For some though, a Healing Separation results in one or all partners moving forward on a journey toward ending the relationship. We meet regularly to check-in and discuss issues that pertain to the separation including co-parenting, time spent together or apart, etc,

I have trained at Harvard University with speakers such as Christopher Germer, a mindfulness and compassion specialist, exploring more in-depth Positive Psychotherapy and Compassion in relationships. I have also trained with Dr. Kristin Neff, on mindfulness and compassion. I was lucky enough to train with Pema Chodron for a meditation retreat at Omega. I have also had the pleasure of attending conferences and training by the creators of two of the most researched couples therapy models, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Dr. Sue Johnson, and with Gottman Couple Therapy founder, Dr. John Gottman. What do you think of email support outside of sessions to help you solidify the changes you seek? How about small homework items to keep you working outside of our sessions? I provide research-based and results-oriented methods in easy to incorporate steps with the follow-up support you need to get unstuck. I value your time and so make every effort to work hard with you and/or your loved ones to bring about change. Feel free to text me to 203-948-0938 to my office cell to set up an initial phone consultation, where you get a chance to ask me questions and for me to describe how I work with clients. Thanks for reading this!

I love being reminded of these tools, even therapists have to review them! When you’re scrolling, make sure you look at at least one post like this, to reset.

Great reminder to skip the financial hangover.
I work with couples to help them discuss their emotions and behaviors around money, so they can be a team.

Estrangement between young adults and their parents is more common—and more painful—than many families expect.

Join us for Healing Estranged Relationships, a 1-hour live workshop designed for clinicians working with families navigating distance, cutoffs, and fractured trust between parents and adult children.

Led by Peter Abrons, PhD, this training offers practical, clinically grounded strategies to help families understand the roots of estrangement and begin the process of reconnection.

Did you know that up to 30% of couples seeking help have one partner who is seriously considering divorce but isn’t fully sure they want to end the marriage?

They aren’t ready for couples therapy
…and they aren’t ready to divorce.
They're looking for clarity.

Discernment Counseling gives them that clarity, with a short-term, structured process that honors both partners’ goals.

Not therapy.
Not advice.
A decision process.
