I have 30 years of experience of helping those with those who have mental health, addictions and relationship problems. I am honored to help all who seek help with any of these issues. I help clients find solutions in a safe and non-judgmental place.

Hi! I'm Héctor López, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than ten years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, stress, grief, and other emotional challenges. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences, identify your strengths, and develop practical strategies for moving forward. I believe therapy works best when it is built on trust, authenticity, and collaboration.

In therapy, I strive to create a space where clients feel accepted exactly as they are. Many people spend years feeling misunderstood, judged, or pressured to hide parts of themselves. I believe healing often begins when we can show up authentically and know that we will be met with compassion and respect.

If you're looking for a therapist who values empathy, authenticity, resilience, and genuine human connection, I would be honored to work with you.

Thank you for taking the time to read this! I look forward to the possibility of supporting you on your journey toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.

Dustin R. Kebre; M.A; LMFT; MT3057 My current focus lies in the private practice setting, where I take a special interest in treating trauma, anxiety & depressive disorders in adults. I take a Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) approach, which allows for long-term benefits in fewer sessions than other counseling models. I was intensively trained in EMDR and believe the focus of counseling is to not only work on managing your current struggles, but to develop the tools needed to independently manage future obstacles as well. I use a combination of reflective listening, as well as an instructional approach, to help guide you towards becoming the best version of you!

I have a Master's in Clinical Psychology and a License in Marital and Family Therapy. I treat individuals, couples and families. I specialize in healing people from pain and suffering. I believe the connection you can develop during therapy provides an environment where you can feel safe and nurtured. We all need this kind of support in a world that seems to care less and less about your needs as a human being. The first step is the most difficult; however, often the most life changing. I look forward in helping you transform your life and be the person you were meant to be.

If you're struggling with anxiety, identity questions, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others, you're not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by life transitions, family dynamics, cultural expectations, or the stress of navigating a world that doesn't always feel safe or affirming. Others are working through LGBTQ+ concerns, exploring their identity, healing from past experiences, or looking for support as they build healthier relationships and greater self-confidence.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported.
