Olga Romero , LMHC

Olga Romero is a faith-based Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who works with individuals, couples, and families navigating significant life transitions. She frames challenges as opportunities to develop new coping skills and greater self-understanding, guiding clients through moments of disconnection from themselves, family, community, or faith.

She assists people facing relationship crises, including escalating couple conflict and breakdowns in family communication, and supports clients through pre- and post-divorce concerns. Olga brings particular experience working with blended family dynamics when partners have children from prior relationships, helping families find healthier ways to relate and communicate.

Recognizing the role trauma can play in keeping people stuck, she addresses how past hurts and abuse may contribute to addictive behaviors and other patterns that interfere with daily life. She offers counseling in Spanish and encourages those ready to take the next step to schedule an appointment to explore goals and options for therapy.

Client-Centered, CBT, and EMDR for Online Care

Olga Romero uses client-centered therapy to create a space where the client’s values and goals guide the work, helping people explore feelings and make decisions at their own pace. This approach supports issues like self-esteem, grief, and life transitions by focusing on empathy and collaboration.

She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) when helpful, a practical approach that helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and develop new skills to manage stress, anxiety, and depression. CBT is goal-oriented and often includes specific strategies to change patterns that get in the way of well-being.

For trauma-related concerns, Olga incorporates EMDR, a therapy that targets distressing memories and the emotions tied to them. EMDR can be part of a broader trauma-focused plan to reduce the hold that past events have on present functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Olga will work with each person to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts treatment as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and maintain continuity of care with licensed professionals and therapists.
