Magaly Passos-HokeLMFT

Nice to meet you

I am a trauma specialist who works with individuals, families, and couples who feel frustrated, angry, or hurting and want to heal and reconnect in healthy ways. I help clients rebuild relationships and create greater harmony within themselves and their families. I work from a family-centered perspective, using the power of emotions, attachment, and in-the-moment experiences. I incorporate EMDR, IFS, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy, and other trauma-informed approaches in my work. You don’t have to struggle alone anymore. It would be my honor to work together and support you and your family.
