Does anyone know of a good, AFFORDABLE Marriage Counselor in the San Gabriel Valley area? Thanks!
Ask your pastor, they usually do it for free...
the Glenkirk Presbyterian Lay Counselor Program in Glendora. They provide counseling for up to 10 sessions (usually for free or a small donation) and if the problem needs more serious treatment, then they have a large network of Christian counselors/psychiatrists that they refer out to.
*Do you have health coverage? First look in your health coverage directory for a psychologist or call your health provider to ask.
*Google "psychologist " and put in your area.
You should at least come up with a list of them in your area.
Then call to get a price quote.
*If you belong to a church, would you consider inquiring if they have marriage counseling?

I'm not sure about the price, but since marriage is worth so much, maybe you have some family members who would be willing to help with the cost. If you do the Weekend to Remember, you can get 50% off by entering "HernFamilyLife" for the "Are you registering as a member of a group?" question.
My sister is one of the most compassionate and talented therapists! Recently her spouse sent me this email about expanding her practice:
Natasha is a mother and grandmother, and has been working over the past 15 years as a marriage-family therapist and school psychologist. After receiving her Masters in Family Therapy many years ago, she accepted a full time (steady, reliable) school psychologist position that precluded her from taking on more than a few clients for her private practice. It has also slowed her progress in gaining the 3,000 hours of practice that is required for full licensure. She is now getting close, and to get there is working (officially as a marriage-family therapy intern) in her new and spacious office under the license of a highly-recognized and long-successful psychologist.
Natasha has experience working with children, adults, couples, and families. Her level of empathy and the trust she engenders among those she counsels are strong assets. She practices a philosophy of non-violence, which extends well beyond the physical form and has enabled her to empower others in the ways they confront conflict and develop views of themselves and others. Please keep her in mind for referrals! Her contact information is:
