About Evita
Evita Sanchez is a licensed marriage and family therapist who works in both English and Spanish. She brings seven years of clinical experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Evita speaks plainly and aims to make first steps feel manageable for people who are nervous about starting therapy.
She centers Narrative Therapy in her work, which means she helps people separate themselves from problem stories and notice strengths that get overlooked.
Background and approach
She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set small, practical goals and build quick momentum toward change. Together these approaches support short-term progress and deeper sense-making over time. In sessions she listens for patterns that shape how clients see themselves and their lives.
She will help name those patterns and try out different ways of telling the story so new options become possible. Conversations often move between practical steps and reflecting on meaning, depending on what a person needs that week. Evita has worked with people facing trauma, self-esteem issues, identity and LGBT concerns, career stress, and life transitions.
She also supports those dealing with family-of-origin issues, infidelity, divorce, and attachment struggles. Her bilingual background helps when cultural identity or experiences of prejudice are part of the story. She encourages small experiments between sessions and focuses on what feels doable.
Evita’s style is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people find clearer choices and regain a sense of direction.
