Nury Valerin (she/her)

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I bring specialized training in working with couples and relational dynamics. I help partners move beyond surface-level conflict to understand the deeper patterns shaping their connection. Together, we’ll work to improve communication, rebuild trust, and shift entrenched cycles into more secure, responsive ways of relating—so both partners feel seen, understood, and supported within the relationship.

I support individuals navigating racial and cultural identity, including the experience of feeling “othered,” unseen, or caught between worlds. This may show up in family dynamics, relationships, or how you move through different spaces. I also work with intercultural and interfaith relationships, where differences can feel both meaningful and challenging. Together, we’ll explore identity, belonging, and how to move through the world in a way that feels more grounded, integrated, and fully your

Family systems therapy looks at the bigger picture, how your relationships, family dynamics, and environment shape your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Rather than focusing on one individual, we explore patterns within your system and how they’ve developed over time. This approach helps bring awareness to what’s happening beneath the surface and opens the door to more intentional, connected ways of relating.

I take an integrative approach to therapy, meaning I draw from different methods to best support your unique needs and goals. No two people or families are the same, so our work together is tailored to you. I may incorporate elements of narrative, relational, and intergenerational work to help you better understand your patterns and create meaningful, lasting change in your life and relationships.

I support women navigating identity, relationships, motherhood, and life transitions. This can include pregnancy, postpartum, shifting roles, and the emotional load women often carry. As a mother of four and a stepparent, I understand the complexity of blended family dynamics and the many layers of modern womanhood. Therapy offers a space to reconnect with yourself, feel supported, and move through this season with greater clarity and intention.

Relationships can be some of our greatest sources of meaning, and also our greatest stress. I support individuals and couples in navigating conflict, communication challenges, boundaries, and recurring patterns that feel hard to break. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, build insight, and create more intentional, fulfilling ways of relating to others while staying grounded in yourself.
