Meet Linda Anaya
Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Aloha, I am a Couples and Family Therapist. My approach emphasizes the importance of working with a couple and family as a system that influence one another. To restructure healthy relationships, I use therapies that promote positive interactions between individuals. My methods include trans-generational, structural family therapy, cognitive-behavioral approaches, and Gottman Therapy. I use exercises such as enactments to help clients set new appropriate boundaries, build love maps to improve interactions and establish loving communication.
I specialize in helping couples identify negative cycles change interaction patterns, and create new solutions to old problems. I also help couples by enlightening them with more productive listening skills, help them understand their attachment styles, and guide them with effective forgiveness approaches to live a securely attached relational lifestyle.
In addition to being a Couples and Family Therapist I am a Certified Pre-Marital Therapist. My experience includes: helping engaged couples resolve conflict, providing parenting coaching, and therapy for children, teenagers, and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, sexual abuse, domestic violence, bereavement, anger issues, and personality disorders.
