My Approach to Helping
Hello! My name is Lina. I am a Hispanic mom from Texas to 3 young adults and a marriage veteran of 20 yrs. My family and I have lived in South Carolina for nearly 4 yrs. where I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Associate with a primary focus of sex and relationship therapy. I possess a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with a specialization in systemic sex therapy and I am currently pursuing a doctorate in Clinical Sexology. What is sex therapy? It is purely talk therapy between me and each partner in the relationship.
Most therapists address your mental health issues and their impact. Sex therapists address your sexualrelationship issues when they are impacting, and being impacted by the various issues in your life. I have a deep understanding of how sexual issues can impact all aspects of your life, including your self worth, but that of your partner's as well.
I develop a treatment approach based on the needs of each client. I am trained in a variety of methods including the use of tarot cards in therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) which is capable of being adapted to reduce any distressing thoughts, feelings, andor behaviors that may be impacting your relationships. Call me today! I look forward to working with you to strengthen your relationship with intimacy, communication, & trust.
