Emotionally Focused Therapists in Granada Hills, CA

Hello! My name is Jenn Torres Duran (she/they) and I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). I believe strongly in the innate natural talents we each hold and am ready to help stand with my clients to achieve the goals and ambitions held for their present and future. I utilize many different modalities (SFBT, CBT, EFT, EMDR, and ACT to name a few), depending on what my clients need in order to co-create tools and brainstorm ideas to face intergenerational traumas, depression, anxiety, and more!

As a Bilingual Latina provider, I am mindful of how our culture and upbringing can impact our sense of self and how we handle challenges. Do you feel stuck? Do you sometimes "know" what to do but don't follow or feel like you can't? I am mindful of culture and the physical, social and other factors impact our mental health. Allow me to help you get "unstuck" through EMDR and utilize an individually tailored approach that will give you the best outcomes. I support couples, individuals and families. Take the time to grow for yourself and your loved ones. I see my work as a calling and my spiritual gift to be of service.

Are you struggling with pornography or unwanted sexual behavior? Are your habits affecting your relationships, your job and your way of life? Are you feeling distant from God, with immense shame and guilt? Are you using your habits to escape a life that is not going the way you want? Do you find yourself going back when you are stressed, yet left with deeper lows? I can help you find the reasons you keep going back to watching porn or acting out sexually, explore the deeper feelings and past/present experiences that may have driven you to this place and provide practical steps to helping you start recovery.

We assist clients in developing a clinical understanding of their emotions/behaviors in the context of their relationships with others. Assisting clients to understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings and responses helps them gain control over themselves and their environment. When life happens, and we are in the midst of chaos, our brain gets stuck and begins to believe that there are no options available; but sometimes we need a push, an emotional support, or just someone to talk to, to help us un-knot the chaos in our mind with the essential problem-solving skills that we need to manage our lives properly.
