About Elvan Kama

Elvan Kama Kurtz, MA, LMFT, CCATP Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist | Gottman & EFT Trained| Culturally Sensitive Couple & Individual Therapy As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) and Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP), I bring over ten years of experience helping individuals and couples rebuild connection, trust, and intimacy. I\'m passionate about guiding those facing relationship challenges, such as affair recovery, communication breakdowns, conflict resolution, and sexual concerns, and helping premarital partners build a strong foundation for lasting love. I specialize in fostering deep emotional bonds, navigating divorce prevention, reigniting sexual communication, and strengthening relationship satisfaction. My trauma-informed and culturally sensitive approach ensures therapy is tailored to values and background of my clients. I work with a wide range of concerns; from anxiety, depression, grief to trauma recovery, LGBTQ+ issues, immigrant issues, life transitions, and sex therapy. Additionally, I facilitate group support for betrayal trauma and narcissistic abuse recovery. I\'m bilingual in Turkish and English. I offer therapy both in-person (Wayne, PA) and virtually, and provide superbills for insurance reimbursement, along with low-fee and sliding-scale options to increase access to quality care. As an immigrant myself, my sliding-scale is limited to immigrant population in need. Whether you\'re seeking healing, deeper connection, or stronger self-understanding, I\'m here to support your journey toward meaningful, lasting change.
