Hello, I'm Dr. Larisa Cicila. As a licensed Clinical Psychologist with specialized training in couple therapy, I create a warm, friendly, and nonjudgmental environment to help you and your partner achieve your mutual goals. My collaborative approach empowers couples to develop effective strategies for communication, conflict resolution, and emotional intimacy.

I believe that every couple has the potential for growth and deeper connection. My role is to guide you through that journey, helping you rediscover the strengths in your relationship.

Expertise:

• Couple Therapy: Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

• Individual Therapy: Anxiety, depression, stress management, phobias, and personal development

• Therapeutic Approaches: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)

Education and Training:

• Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, University of Miami (2016)

• Couple Therapy Fellowship, San Diego VA (2017)

My passion for helping partners reconnect is reflected in my academic research and practical experience. While couples therapy is my specialty, I'm also skilled in addressing individual mental health concerns and fostering personal growth.

I work flexibly with you to identify goals, develop treatment plans, and adjust our approach as needed. My aim is to support you in building a stronger, more fulfilling relationship.

For your convenience, I offer both in-person and secure telehealth sessions and am committed to providing accessible care to diverse populations.

I'm excited about the opportunity to work with you and help you achieve your therapeutic goals! Ready to take the first step? Contact me today to schedule a consultation and start your journey towards a more fulfilling relationship.
