I am a bilingual LMFT. In 1991 I obtained a B.H in Social Psychology from The Universidad Autonoma de Baja California (Mexico). In 2008, I graduated from University of Phoenix with a M.A in Marriage, Family, and Child therapy. I have more than 20 years working with patients (adolescents, parents, adults, and couples) to improve relationships, mental and/or emotional issues related with depression, anxiety, phobias, traumas, psychosocial stressors, life challenges, and goals.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During the first session my primary goal is to stablish the therapeutic relationship, where you could feel safe and comfortable to start exploring issues, needs, goals and your strengths. I believe that the change, health, and progress is always possible if we work focus on that so I emphasize the use of action plans or assignments to practice and test new skills and strategies during session and in between appointments.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Having worked with Latina population in Mexico and U.S for more than 20 years had have allowed to me adapt to changes in generations, technology, medicine, social, and multicultural factors that help me to support my clients to develop skills to embrace satisfactory relationships and reach the life they dream and deserve to live.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
It is a privilage to work with young people, couples, adults and older adults who are experiencing complex relationship, emotional or mental situations in their lives and have the desire to work with me in search of changing habits, healing difficult experiences, and building new skills to change what is necessary to reach the best version of their self.
Eclectic
I focus on meeting my patient needs using an eclectic approach according to the personal situation. Approches include person-centered, cognitive behavior, dialectical behavioral, narrative, and solution-focused methods.

I’ve had a couple of sessions with Norma and I can say that she’s given me tools to navigate and understand my feelings and current situation. She is kind and empowering. I feel so supported and look forward to my sessions with her.

I don't have the time right now to say all of the wonderful things I'd like to about Ms. Muñoz, but I just adore her and she has already helped me tremendously after only a handful of sessions.

I enjoyed meeting Norma. It seems like we have some things in common which will make it easier for me to open up. She seems authentic, down to earth, intelligent and goal oriented to improve my situation. I'm excited to work with her.
