I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC), a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and a National Certified Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapist (CFCBT). I have over 20 years of experience working with adults, couples, families, children, and teens on a range of issues. I am trained to work with individuals facing struggles related to parenting skills, developmental and learning disabilities, trauma, abuse, grief, depression, and anxiety. 
I am a certified meditation instructor who uses mind-body-spirit techniques.  I have training in different modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Anchored Relational Framework, to work with dissociative disorders.
If you are going through stormy moments and struggles that prevent you from living a fulfilling life, Ana is here to help you. Se ofrecen también servicios en español
