Yoana Armendariz, LMFT is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps individuals and couples navigate anxiety, trauma, and life transitions—with compassion, curiosity, and just the right touch of humor. She specializes in trauma, social anxiety, general anxiety, and women’s issues, creating a safe, supportive space for both individual healing and relational growth. In her work with individuals (ages 12 and up), Yoana is particularly passionate about supporting professionals, first-generation individuals and families, and those living with ADHD. As a couple's therapist, she helps partners improve communication, rebuild trust, and deepen emotional intimacy—whether they’re feeling disconnected or simply want to strengthen their bond. Her approach integrates a variety of modalities, including Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), psychodynamic therapy, IFS-informed work, somatic psychotherapy, and the Gottman Method (Level 1). At the heart of her practice is the belief that therapy should be collaborative, empowering, and—yes—a space where it’s okay to laugh as you grow. Whether you're overwhelmed, burned out, or feeling stuck in your relationships or your own head, [Your Name] offers a warm, grounded presence to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

I will sit with you in the hard moments, whether letting out some well-earned frustration, tears, or laughter. You just want to feel unburdened, free from the weight of your relationships, career struggles, past wounds, or even the overwhelming stress of the daily grind and routine. But your mind won’t grant you that relief. Meditation and deep breaths aren’t undoing years of burnout, complicated relationships, or the unresolved wounds that have been shaping the way you move through life. I'm here to support teens and adults who are truly ready to put in the work. No empty clichés, no forced positivity, just real, lasting change.
