Desiree Medina, LPC

You are already stressed as it is, choosing a therapist shouldn’t have to be.

You’re left feeling confused and unsure about you and your relationship

Are you haunted by self doubt? You worry and question yourself and your relationship making you on edge. Maybe you’ve even began to resent the people you love the most impacting the trust and love you’ve worked so hard to build.

You’ve buried yourself in every self-help book, taken all the relationship quizzes, and even tried an affirmation or two, but you still find yourself having the same argument. Perhaps you have already attempted couple’s counseling, but the frustration and resentment around your sex life and communication is still there and you’re still left wondering if this will continue for years on end.

What’s it like to work with me?

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in relational therapy, with a focus on attachment and trauma. My approach to therapy is compassionate, authentic, and direct. I work systemically, with an emphasis on emotions and believe we are all doing the best we know how to do, and have the ability to change when we learn how to engage differently with ourselves and with the people in our lives. In all my work I hold the space for a person to feel vulnerable, yet supported while empowering them to look within for internal strengths as a foundation for the work.

I don’t shy away from any topic and am an ally for individuals from various cultural or social backgrounds as well as different expressions of gender and sexuality.
