Hello from the Founder
Welcome , I’m Maria Jessica Quiroz, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and founder of The Couples Therapy & Reunification Counseling. When I opened our Newport Beach office, my vision was to create a space where couples, families, and children could feel safe to heal, reconnect, and grow.
I know from both personal and professional experience that relationships are at the heart of our lives. When they’re strained, everything feels harder. My mission, and the mission of our team, is to help you rebuild trust, navigate challenges, and create stronger, healthier bonds.
At our Newport Beach office, we serve clients from across Orange County, including Costa Mesa, Irvine, Huntington Beach, and Corona del Mar. Whether you’re beginning couples therapy, entering reunification counseling, or seeking support for your child, you’ll find a team here dedicated to compassionate, evidence-based care.
This practice is more than therapy, it’s about healing hearts, rebuilding connections, and helping relationships thrive.
With warmth,

“I never thought I’d see the day when my child and I would be in the same room again, let alone laughing together. The pain of separation felt impossible to overcome, but reunification therapy changed everything. It gave us the tools to rebuild trust, heal old wounds, and truly reconnect. Now, we have a relationship I never thought possible. If you're feeling hopeless—don’t. This process works.”
Client Testimonials About Therapy in Newport Beach, CA
"Our home was filled with tension, and every conversation turned into an argument. We felt like we were drifting apart. Family therapy helped us break down walls, understand each other’s emotions, and create a home filled with love and respect again. We don’t just co-exist—we support, listen, and genuinely enjoy each other now. I only wish we had started sooner!"
“We were at a breaking point—barely speaking, constantly arguing, and feeling more like roommates than partners. Therapy helped us truly hear each other for the first time in years. It gave us the tools to communicate, understand our triggers, and rebuild the love we thought was lost. Now, our marriage is stronger than ever, and we’re actually excited about our future together."
