Alejandro Pina
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - LMFT
For couples in conflict, feeling stuck and hopeless; I can help your partner better understand you. I help partners redevelop genuine understanding and empathy for each other. We all have patterns of behavior that can hurt our partner. But together, we’ll find what is really behind how your loved-one behaves. Work with a couples therapist and learn how to help your partner understand you.
For individuals: Talking about yourself can be really hard, it can stress me out too. I like to make sessions as easy-going as possible. If you feel like a burden, can’t share things with the people in your life, or you usually keep to yourself, my practice can support you.
My background includes three years as a crisis counselor at a national suicide hotline. I’ve learned that a common theme among those in pain is not feeling understood or seen in the world.
