As a generalist I enjoy working with families and individuals seeking help to address challenges with mood, anxiety, and behavior. My practice is guided by an ecological perspective that assumes there are strong causal relationships between psychological, physical, spiritual, and relational health.

Malena Ortega, LPC

I believe my job as a counselor is to create a safe space for you, the client, to tell your unique story, and to help you achieve the goals you have for yourself by creating a treatment plan that is tailored to your individual needs. I believe the therapy relationship is rooted in trust and unconditional positive regard. I strive to provide an environment where you will feel comfortable and not only learn to trust in me but in the therapy process as a whole. I am a humanistic, person-centered counselor with an eclectic approach, drawing heavily from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and trauma-informed practices as I deliver solution-focused and strength-based therapies based on your needs.
