Hi, I'm Yo-at (YOE-aht) Silverman and I've been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) for nearly 20 years. I've been doing therapy since I finished my MA at New College of California in 2007, and I've been licensed since 2009.
Have you been experiencing a lot of worry, stress and anxiety lately? Has something significant changed in your life and you're just trying to make heads or tails of it all? Are you having issues staying on task or maintaining focus at work or at school? Are you trying to figure out how to get along with family, friends or coworkers? Have you and your partner been having issues communicating and trusting each other? Are you motivated to create change for your own growth and benefit? I can help.
My style is supportive, solution-focused, and coping skills centered. I'll listen without judgement or criticism and I'll give you concrete ideas and suggestions that are designed to help you in improving your quality of life, your relationships and your self-care (and no, I'm not talking about manicures or haircuts).
And if you need a vent session, I'm here for that, too.
I look forward to meeting you.

Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
Relationships are built over days, weeks, months, and years. They take time to cultivate and grow, and that process can often leave you or your partner feeling emotionally drained and vulnerable. Despite the time and energy you put into your relationship, you and your partner might find that you simply aren’t seeing eye to eye. Perhaps you disagree over little things, like whose turn it is to cook or walk the dog. Or, maybe you’re dealing with a bigger concern such as a life-altering illness or financial troubles.
Whatever is going on in your relationship, seeing a licensed relationship therapist or counselor can provide insights and techniques that revive, repair, or reinforce your relationship. Our licensed marriage and family therapists at Thriveworks in Fairfield, CA, are eager to help you and your partner resolve conflict and improve your relationship. Call our office today to get started.
When some people hear the words “couples therapy,” their minds automatically turn to infidelity. But therapy for couples and spouses covers a wide range of topics that affect the couple as a unit and as individuals.
Here are a few of the reasons our clients decide to work with a mental health professional:
Couples counseling is designed to help you and your spouse or partner resolve conflict through dialogue and active listening. While your exact form of treatment may vary depending on your needs and wants, all relationship-based therapy or counseling focuses on creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for you and your partner.
Your therapist or counselor might introduce therapeutic techniques such as journaling, extended gazing or hand-holding, role reversals, and other practices that ask you and your partner to engage with each other. Your therapist might also practice different kinds of therapy such as family therapy, talk therapy, or narrative therapy. The Gottman Method — which focuses on conflict resolution, empathy, respectfulness, and other traits — may also be used.
Many couples also complete out-of-session assignments together. This “homework” might include participating in a shared hobby, exercising together, or setting up specific times to talk about concerns. These assignments can help you integrate things you learn about during your sessions into your life, or they could help prompt discussions in future sessions. No matter where you’re at in your relationship, working with a counselor or therapist from Thriveworks Counseling in Fairfield, CA, can help you solve your problems and grow closer as a couple.
If you’re facing a difficult situation with your partner or simply want to strengthen your bond, consider scheduling an appointment at Thriveworks Counseling in Fairfield, CA. Our licensed mental health professionals can set up a compassionate space for you to work through any difficulties you’re facing together.
We offer weekday, weekend, and evening sessions to help you find a time that will work for both of your schedules. If scheduling a time where you can both come to an office is difficult, we also offer convenient online appointments over video. Online sessions can be an excellent option for busy couples or people in a long-distance relationship. Some of our new clients can see a couples therapist or counselor within just a week of scheduling. We also offer a flexible cancellation policy; you can reschedule at a more convenient time whenever you need to.
Working with a counselor or therapist could be the first step toward a happier and healthier relationship. Call our office at Thriveworks in Fairfield, CA, today to set up your first appointment.
