Mimi E Porat
Marriage & Family Therapist
·LMFT, LPCAbout
As a therapist, I so value the healing potential of human connection. Emotion and suffering are natural reactions to life, and the ability to sit with and process life’s challenges with another person can be a gift. Sharing moments of loss, shame, joy, and disappointment can lead to stronger self-acceptance and connection with others. I strive to be welcoming, open, and empathetic to all clients who walk through the door. With an extensive background in working with individuals and families, I have had the privilege of being witness to many personal stories. Our stories of historical trauma, family strife, and significant life events can affect us daily, determining how we interact with the world around us. I support individuals, couples, and families, working with my clients to provide individualized support for their specific needs. I would be honored to hear your story, to help you to process and cope with life’s challenges, and to support your steps towards feeling a sense of inner-calm and personal empowerment. **Specialties:** I specialize in working with individuals and couples across the life span, experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, family strife, grief, loss, and challenges related to being part of a marginalized community or identity. I offer EMDR therapy, and practice from a humanistic, person-centered lens. **Credentials & Experience:** I am fully licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist (2120 - 124) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (10267 - 125).
