(she/her)
Hello! My name is Naomi Ortega, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Fulfilling my role as a therapist means a great deal to me, as does building genuine connections with my clients. It is through that genuine connection that I hope to assist you in navigating through depressive, anxious, traumatic, and stress-related symptoms. I also aim to provide treatment through a culturally sensitive perspective.
I hope to be an empathic ear and provide a warm space for you to share what has been heavy to carry candidly.
As a provider I aim to build authentic relationships with my clients and maintain a sense of comfort while exploring topics that are not typically easy to discuss.
My goal is to assist clients looking to gain self-awareness by exploring their identity, cultural values, and belief systems. Additionally, I provide support to clients open to building self-compassion and creating space for their strengths to flourish.

Naomi creates a welcoming space that allows me to feel comfortable opening up. She always lets me know she's being an attentive listener by giving great answers that show great details of the specific situations I present. Her tone is always calm and allows me to express my emotions. She is very flexible and is a great communicator.
