Despair, depression, and an overwhelming sense of emptiness. So many people suffer under the weight of these feelings. Because of them relationships flounder and don’t make headway. Family life and parenting become endless arenas for unhappiness and anger, and in the end, life is not lived to the fullest.

Hello, I am Irene Dominguez, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. Creating a space where you feel safe and not judged is important to me. I have over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, 6 years of which as an LPCC. Working towards creating an environment where you feel supported, heard, and understood is of high value to me. My goal is that after each session you leave knowing that your concerns are important and that because you had an opportunity to share openly, you have more direction on what to do/work on next.

Currently accepting new clients! Depression. Anxiety. Anger. Numbness. These difficult symptoms (and others) color our experience, and make life difficult! And yet, they are merely the smoke from fires sourced far deeper within the caves of Self. Together, we will follow the various strands of symptoms and sensation to their source. Then we begin to untangle the knots that bind and restrict. Let's release you from those things that are inhibiting you from embracing all this life has to offer.
