At Reconnect Marriage and Family Counseling, founded by Jarvis and Cymone Sams, we specialize in culturally responsive mental health care for individuals, couples, and families. Our practice is committed to supporting historically underrepresented communities, addressing the unique challenges posed by cultural stigma and isolation in mental health. 

 

Our Focus We provide a supportive environment where all clients, diverse in age, race, gender identity, and sexual orientation, feel seen, heard, and included. Our therapists, trained in a variety of modalities including relationship-focused therapies, trauma-focused therapy, and insight therapy, are dedicated to helping you navigate life's challenges in a way that respects and integrates your cultural identity.

• Relationship-Focused Therapy: In relationship-focused therapy, you and your therapist will explore and improve your interactions with others, especially within your family and close relationships. This approach helps you understand and resolve conflicts, improve communication, and strengthen your connections with those around you. Our practice has a strong focus on supporting couples and families, especially those from marginalized communities, helping them navigate the unique challenges they face with empathy and expertise.

• Trauma-Focused Therapy: Trauma-focused therapy is designed to address the specific emotional and psychological needs of individuals who have experienced trauma. This therapeutic approach helps clients process and make sense of their traumatic experiences, aiming to reduce trauma's impact on their current mental health and wellbeing. Through safe, supportive, and compassionate counseling, our therapists assist clients in developing coping strategies that promote healing and resilience.

• Insight Therapy: Insight therapy encourages you to delve into your past and explore your emotions and memories. By gaining a deeper understanding of your personal history and internal conflicts, you can uncover the roots of your emotional issues, leading to greater self-awareness and emotional healing.

 

Our Mission We strive to reduce stigma, increase access to care, and improve the quality of life for our clients by acknowledging the intersection of race, ethnicity, gender identity, and sexual orientation. Our goal is to empower you to reconnect with the best version of yourself and foster meaningful relationships within your community.
