Carlos Moreno

(he/him)

My name is Carlos, and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist. As a first-generation immigrant from Chile, a member of the LGBTQ+ community, and someone who is neurodivergent, I understand how important it is to feel truly seen, accepted, and safe. I strive to create a warm, affirming, and inclusive space where clients can show up exactly as they are without fear of judgment. 

I am passionate about helping individuals and couples heal from trauma, especially attachment and inner-child wounds, so they can better understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that may be keeping them stuck. I enjoy supporting couples in rebuilding trust, improving communication, and reconnecting emotionally, while also helping individuals move toward deeper self-understanding, healing, and self-compassion.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and genuine. I believe therapy works best when clients feel comfortable enough to be fully themselves, so I bring honesty, curiosity, and humor into the therapy room whenever it feels helpful. I deeply value getting to know each client’s unique story and experience, and my background in Sociology and Social Work helps me approach my work with cultural sensitivity and care.

I am trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, and informed in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Somatic Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Imago Relational Therapy. I believe healing happens at each person’s own pace, and I strive to support and gently challenge clients in ways that foster meaningful, lasting change.

Personally, I love traveling, hiking, and staying active through activities like pickleball, volleyball, swimming, yoga, and other mindful movement practices. I feel most grounded and connected to myself through movement, nature, meaningful relationships, and experiencing different cultures alongside family, friends, and my bernedoodle, Milo.
