Lucia Lopez Plunkett
Psychologist, PhD
Verified
I specialize in providing support to families through medical illnesses such as
cancer
to promote coping and begin the process of emotional healing while honoring a person's unique cultural history.
My approach to working with families and children is grounded in developing self-awareness. I use a relationally and culturally appropriate based approach to develop strong connections and provide insight to heal relationships. For me, a compassionate and non-judgmental approach is key in working with clients in order to identify maladaptive coping patterns to help repair and strengthen relationships. My goal is to increase a person's emotional presence so that they can be fully available to their families and with themselves.

Lynn Marie Henning
Marriage & Family Therapist, PsyD
Verified
As emotional healing takes place, we awaken to ourselves, to others, to our lives. My work initially involves setting up an environment of safety and trust. In this surround, challenges from the past and present can be unearthed, explored and used to our advantage. Growth is born of struggle, not comfort. Building a story of your experiences, helps one find continuity and purpose in life. I am present, listening and feeling as our work unfolds. I challenge and confront but also validate one's experiences and emotional responses to those experiences. Being seen, heard and understood begets healing.
