Kelly Lopez
I am a Licensed Associate Counselor, specializing in the treatment of eating disorders, trauma, abuse/neglect, relationship problems, and basic human issues related to personal development and well- being.
I am committed to maintaining our reputation for providing excellent, compassionate, and innovative care to each of our cherished clients. I am also the Co-Founder and Program Director of Happy Weight, an innovative program dedicated to helping people affected by emotional eating and related body image issues.
My mission is to help you make connections between your current struggles, such as excessive stress and anxiety, people-pleasing, or an eating disorder, and unresolved painful past experiences. In this process I will guide you with compassion, helping you understand that all behavior makes sense when put in context of our basic human need and adaptive coping strategies.
Whether the pain manifests as a persistent eating disorder, relationship codependency, low self-esteem, and/or existential struggles with your meaning and purpose, my gift is the ability to create a safe environment for your personal stories, guiding you to discover your personal power and helping you create the life you desire and deserve.
I am well-trained in various evidence-based modalities of psychotherapy, including Emotionally-Focused Couple Therapy (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR),and Inner Child Work, and Attachment Styles.
