Valorie de Lena, MA MFT SEP

SpecialtiesI am a Marriage and Family Therapist Registered Intern who enjoys working with individuals, adolescents, families and couples. I work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety and panic attacks, substance abuse and addiction, Trauma and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), relationship difficulties, and life transitions. I also work with adolescents in foster care and their families. I work collaboratively, integrating a variety of methods and techniques to suit each client and their individual challenges. I listen with an open mind, answer questions honestly, and participate actively. I work with clients to define goals, build on their strengths, and find satisfying solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the foundation of my treatment but I incorporate a variety of other methods and techniques. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Relational, Somatic, Mindfulness and other therapies.
