  • “We wish we could give more stars! My fiancé and I wanted to do pre-marriage counseling before getting married this year. We decided to go with Couples Counseling ATL and met with Jessica Settle. She exceeded our expectations. She has such a calming presence and is just the sweetest person ever. We felt we could talk to her about anything and after just a few months of therapy we feel stronger as a couple and more prepared to resolve conflicts and communicate more effectively. The sessions were so fun too! We laughed! We talked! We cried! It was so therapeutic and we looked forward to every single one of them. She also gave us so many great resources to use! If you and your significant other are looking for someone to talk to, look no further. Jessica is the absolute best person to go to.”

  • “We had an awesome experience with Jessica at Couples Counseling. We did our premarital counseling with her and ended up doing more sessions than we initially thought we would. She was patient, kind, and made us feel very comfortable and heard. She had a lot of great advice and ways to cope and manage all different conflicts and just to improve our overall qualities of life. She was flexible with scheduling, timing, and always kind and sensitive. I would recommend this service and especially Jessica to any couple looking to better understand how to have a successful relationship! Overall, 5 stars!”

Gottman Method

My approach to counseling is informed by a number of insight-orientated theories of counseling, as well as my understanding of attachment, interpersonal, internalized oppression, and contemporary modern and postmodern perspectives. I use Gottman method for couples counseling--the most proven and effective form of couples therapy based on decades of research.

Premarital Counseling

In addition to traditional Relationship Counseling, I specialize in working with pre-committed and engaged couples. Please schedule a complimentary consultation with me to discuss your goals!

I am passionate about helping people, especially those with the following concerns:

  • multicultural and inter-cultural issues
