Maricela Gomez, LMFT

Embarking on the journey of couples therapy is a profound step towards personal growth, healing, and strengthening the bond of your relationship. It requires courage to face the challenges within a relationship, and it's a journey that doesn't have to be navigated alone. As a therapist specializing in couples therapy and marriage counseling, I aim to be a beacon of hope and a steadfast source of support for both partners.

At the core of my approach to couples therapy is a deep-seated belief in the power of empathy and human connection. My primary goal is to create a welcoming, non-judgmental space where both partners feel safe to openly express themselves and explore the complexities of their relationship. This environment is crucial for addressing issues and fostering understanding and compassion between partners.

Embracing a humanistic approach, I view each partner as an expert in their own experiences and emotions. You both hold the wisdom and insight needed to navigate the challenges in your relationship. My role is not only to provide solutions but to facilitate a process where you, as a couple, can discover and implement your own strategies for healing and growth. This approach underscores the importance of tailoring therapy to meet the unique needs of each relationship, ensuring that the methods employed resonate with both partners and their specific circumstances.

My experience extends to working with individuals and families dealing with a wide array of challenges such as trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety. This broad background enriches my understanding and approach to couples therapy, allowing me to address not only the relationship itself but also the individual issues that may be impacting it.

I am committed to walking alongside you and your partner on this path of discovery and renewal. Through couples therapy and marriage counseling, we can work together to build a stronger, healthier relationship that withstands the tests of time. I look forward to the opportunity to support you both in fostering a deeper connection and achieving the lasting change you seek in your relationship.
