    • Couples Therapy and Marriage Counseling in St. Petersburg & Tampa Bay

    Start Here

    I help couples in St. Petersburg and the Tampa Bay area rebuild trust, improve communication, and reconnect emotionally.

    You can thrive in your marriage, nurture your family, and pursue your dreams.

    Feeling trapped in a miserable marriage? I help you to get clarity so you can make confident decisions.

    You’ll learn how to design a life and to parent during chaos while applying first aid to your heart. Also, you’ll home in on what needs to be done about your relationship and take concrete action–without losing your self-respect or feeling like a failure.

    I know you feel like you’re sinking–but there is HOPE to rise above it all.

    Can a Marriage Survive After Cheating?

    I get it–you’re reeling and feeling stunned. Maybe you never saw it coming or your gut had been speaking to you for a while now.

    You may not know if you want to stay or go, and that’s understandable, but check out this stat:  Drs. John and Julie Gottman’s research shows that the Gottman Couples Method has a 75% success rate for couples who experienced infidelity. 

    Therapy builds a bridge between you and your spouse so that you can understand what happened and move forward.

    Reviews

    L.B.: Jackie has been a key part of my journey for over a year now and I couldn’t recommend her more. She is a fantastic listener, has a comforting environment, and really wants to know the root of the feelings to help you find resolve, not just give a temporary solution. I’m so happy with my decision to trust her with my time.

    J.C.: I have gone to various counselors over my 65 years of age. Jackie is the absolute hands down best. She makes you feel so at ease that you divulge past hurts or present hurts, so that you get to the root and gives you some ideas to work with. I have uncovered many reasons for things with working with her. The best think I ever did was to see Jackie Sager with Rise Above Counseling. We all have the power to rise above, sometimes we just need a little more guidance.

    MC: Jackie is a vital piece to personal healing. She leaves space for me to feel open to speak about anything, and guides me spiritually.I can’t say enough amazing things about Jackie
