Telma Armendariz, AMFT

I am deeply passionate about resolving trauma. We all carry wounding in our bodies and without attention, this trauma has a way of taking over when we least want it to. Tapping into the mind-body connection, I guide my clients towards embodiment, empowerment, and intimacy/relational healing, using psychodynamic, existential, and experiential therapies, along with cognitive and sensory awakening practices, biopsychology, and holistic interventions. I offer a caring, somatically attuned space to nourish the nervous system and feel safe in your body. Paving the way towards trauma release, I hope you access the pleasure and wellness of healthy human connection. I shape the style and atmosphere of our work together with elements of Jungian psychology, acceptance and commitment therapy, Zen Buddhist psychology, depth psychology, meditation, and visualization.
