Hi, I'm Fred Talisman. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 50 years, I've dedicated my life to saving relationships from the brink of collapse - even when all hope seemed lost. My journey began personally when my first marriage ended after 17 years, leading me to discover what actually works to repair damaged relationships.
Unlike traditional therapy that focuses on endless analysis of problems, I've developed practical, proven tools that create real change. These techniques have helped thousands of couples transform from crisis to stronger connection than ever before. They work even when only one partner is trying, when trust has been shattered, or when previous counseling has failed.
Today, I'm happily married to my wife of 28 years. Having experienced both devastating loss and enduring love in my own life, I'm passionate about giving couples the exact tools they need to save their relationships, rebuild trust, and create lasting bonds. I believe that with the right guidance, most relationships can not only be saved but transformed into something even stronger than before.

"Loved everything so far"
“We are doing fantastic – better than ever. I honestly didn’t think we would recover from our hurdle earlier this year. I was convinced he didn’t even want to. After working with Fred for just a few sessions, I cannot explain the impact and the difference he continues to make in our day to day interactions. As we celebrate our 3 year mark next weekend, we truly have Fred to thank. We have never been happier, or stronger as a couple. The tools Fred taught us continue to enrich our communications and understanding of each other. I have a heart full of love and a life filled with happiness that I would not have today with him if not for Fred. ”
- Cindy Sanders

"These tools have transformed the way we interact"
“ Fred was instrumental in helping my wife and I work through a very difficult chapter in our life. After helping us work through the immediate ‘crisis’, he went further and gave us the communication skills necessary to having a healthy relationship. These tools have transformed the way we interact and have allowed us to reach mutually beneficial agreements on items that had long been a source of conflict.”
- Stan Johnson

"my wife KNOWS I’ve changed"
“When I found Fred I was a basket case. Some months before I found Fred, my wife told me that she loved me but she was no longer in love with me. There were signs I should have noticed but I didn’t. I was shocked. She later told me she wanted a divorce and she refused to go to marriage counseling with me. Within the first three days of working with Fred, I made more progress towards saving my marriage than I had done in months on my own. Using Fred’s tools, my wife KNOWS I’ve changed. Fred has helped me to be a better listener, a better husband, a better parent and a better person. Thanks so much Fred for all your help so far.”
