Ana Mora
Counselor, LMHC, MEd, MA

It's so hard putting out a perfect image especially when you stress yourself all of the time. It looks like you have it all together. You went to college, excel at work, and have friends. But you feel so alone. Inside you are battling with some hard shit but they don't notice. You are the one that they come to for help and it's so easy helping them sort through their lives and giving advice. You are so tired of helping others and wish that someone would just notice you. But you keep being the rock because there is a little tiny voice that fears the phone calls would stop. After all, will they be there if they know the real you?

Is SHORT TERM therapy right for you? Feeling stressed? Anxious? Losing sleep? Is worry keeping you awake at night? Whatever it is that’s stopping you from feeling your best, therapy can help. Living with stress can cause real problems that affect our physical and mental health. It can trigger anxiety and depression, social problems, low self-esteem, and self doubt. I have over 10 years of experience helping my clients reduce stress, manage anxiety, panic, and OCD symptoms, feel better about themselves, and see a path to improved happiness and wellbeing. There's no point in suffering on you own, when there's another way.

***At this time I am unable to take on new client. If you would like to be added to my wait list please email me your contact information*** There might be relationships in your past that pull at you and keep you from living the life you want to lead. Being in this place can feel like quicksand and make it impossible to move out of. Although you may want to reach out, you still might not be sure if therapy is right for you, that's okay. We can work together to figure out how to get you out of that quicksand and feeling like you are back on solid ground.

I believe in a genuine partnership between a therapist and client and aim to create a safe space full of empathy and curiosity. I find myself drawn to helping people find the tools to more successfully communicate with those they hold dear. There are many unique facets to our individual lives, and each piece has helped to create the person, people, and family that surrounds us today. Approaching therapy with a Marriage and Family Therapy background simply means that I view each individual as part of a whole system, with many influences at play. Family, chosen relationships, and society all affect the choices we make.
