Victoria de los Santos Mycue, PsyD, LMFT

Clinical approach

I am trained in family systems approach which I use with the children, youth and families that I work with. I also hold an art therapy registration (since 2002) and board certification and use art and creative imagination whenever the client is open to incorporating creativity in their healing process. I am also trained in psychodynamic work, specifically I trained for three years in Control Mastery Theory. This helps me provide a depthful approach to the work while looking at and exploring the client’s beliefs and thinking patterns that impact their experiences in daily life. Whenever possible I also incorporate spirituality that resonates with the client’s own approach to living. I am trained in and use tools from CBT, DBT, EMDR, EFT, and SE, but I see these techniques as helping resolve the larger issues which are embedded in a relational frame, meaning through building trust, safety and familiarity with the client, we are able to work through struggles and reduce symptoms.
