Alejandra Vera-Oronia
Marriage and Family Therapist Associate
Relationships, personal challenges, and life transitions can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what to do next. You don't have to navigate those experiences alone.
I work with couples and individuals who want to better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and make meaningful changes in their lives. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that our relationships and experiences shape who we are.
I also offer faith-informed counseling for clients who want their beliefs and values to be part of the therapeutic process. Whether faith is central to your life, something you're exploring, or not part of your story at all, you are welcome here.
Therapy available in English and Spanish.

Relationships can be one of the most meaningful parts of our lives, but they can also be challenging.
Whether you're struggling with communication, experiencing recurring conflict, feeling disconnected, or navigating a difficult season together, I help couples better understand the patterns affecting their relationship and work toward greater connection.
My goal is to help both partners feel heard while building healthier ways to communicate and navigate challenges together.

Sometimes you know something isn't working, but you're not sure how to change it.
Individual therapy offers an opportunity to explore your experiences, understand patterns in your life and relationships, and develop new ways of approaching challenges.
I work with individuals navigating relationship difficulties, family dynamics, identity, life transitions, and emotional challenges.

For many people, faith is an important part of how they understand themselves, their relationships, and the world around them.
If your faith is meaningful to you, we can thoughtfully incorporate your spiritual beliefs and values into our work together. This might include exploring how faith influences your relationships, decisions, personal struggles, or sense of purpose.
Faith-informed counseling is always guided by your preferences. You do not need to be religious to work with me, and I welcome clients of all beliefs and backgrounds.

Being able to express yourself in the language that feels most comfortable can make a meaningful difference in therapy.
I offer counseling in both English and Spanish, giving individuals and couples the opportunity to discuss their experiences, relationships, and concerns in their preferred language.
How I can help
My approach to therapy
I believe that understanding our relationships and experiences can help us better understand ourselves. My approach is rooted in systems- and attachment-based therapy, recognizing that the ways we connect with others, communicate, and respond to challenges are often shaped by our past experiences and relationships.
I have completed specialized training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an evidence-based approach that helps individuals and couples better understand their emotions and the patterns that influence their relationships.
In couples therapy, EFT helps us look beyond recurring arguments to understand the deeper emotions and needs underneath them. Rather than focusing on who's right or wrong, we'll work to recognize the cycles that keep you feeling disconnected and develop new ways to communicate, respond, and strengthen your connection.
In individual therapy, I use these same principles to help you explore your emotional experiences, understand relationship patterns, and build greater self-awareness and emotional security.
My goal is to create a collaborative environment where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also being encouraged to grow and make meaningful changes.
