Marriage & Relationship Specialist · Yorba Linda, CA
Ed has spent decades helping couples rebuild what felt lost — and the results speak for themselves. The approach, heralded by both the New York Times and Time Magazine as "the couples therapy with the highest rate of success," breaks the healing process into a clear, step-by-step system that couples actually understand and use.
"We communicated in 6 weeks of counseling what we couldn't figure out in 6 years on our own."
Ed doesn't just study healthy relationships — he grew up in one. His parents were married for 58 years. Both sets of his grandparents were together until death. His father had 12 siblings, nearly all of whom had lifelong marriages. That multigenerational foundation of commitment shapes everything about how Ed approaches couples work.
He left a successful career in technology to pursue more meaningful work — and found his calling in helping couples reconnect, communicate, and rediscover why they chose each other in the first place.
Ed uses a research-backed method that is structured, practical, and deeply effective. Rather than talking in circles, couples leave each session with real tools they can use immediately. The approach focuses on breaking negative communication cycles, rebuilding emotional safety, and creating lasting change — not just temporary relief.

Ed is passionate about mixed martial arts and gymnastics — disciplines he says share something with great therapy: both require discipline, trust, and a willingness to be challenged.
Most couples wait too long before seeking help. The fact that you're here means you haven't given up — and that matters more than you know.
