Also, being in a constant state of anxiety is so exhausting and disruptive it often leads to depression. Sometimes people get so bad especially if they have panic attacks they stop going places and their world becomes very small. I know anxiety.

I am Chloe Lucas, LMFT. I've been a therapist for just under 10 years now. My personality has been described as direct, curious, and grounding. My practice focuses on trauma work, teens, adult individuals, and parenting. My training is rooted in spirituality as an important part of the whole self. I see therapy as an important tool for existential growth. Our culture doesn't make enough space for emotional expression and introspection. Therapy is a unique relationship that allows for the practice of emotional intimacy such that we may become more attune and connected to ourselves and others.

Embarking on the journey of couples therapy is a profound step towards personal growth, healing, and strengthening the bond of your relationship.

At the core of my approach to couples therapy is a deep-seated belief in the power of empathy and human connection.

If you’ve been trying to change thoughts, feelings, actions, and reactions without success, it’s not your fault. You’ve been trying to change unconscious, root beliefs with conscious processes. Talking about it, feeling bad about it, journaling, reading books, and other typical “therapy” approaches do not usually shift what is going on below the level of consciousness.

There are times in life when people go round and round, and wonder if that is all life has to give...if you feel that the behavior, thoughts, and feelings of yourself or others are not working, then reaching a hand out to an expert who can look for alternatives makes sense.

I help suffering people permanently resolve long-standing emotional wounds and the shame, guilt, depression, and anxiety that ensue. This only happens in one place; "here and now." Thus, we focus on what is happening in your immediate experience of life. This leads directly to the emotional wound where we can heal it. As emotional pain exists outside of time, so does the cure. We locate the unconscious, emotional truth quickly and begin actively dismantling emotionally-learned beliefs & self-perceptions. It does mean active participation in intensive, brief therapy. This approach works for couples and families as well.
