Break the Cycle
Save the Relationship
Are you exhausted from the constant fights, broken promises, and the painful silence in your home? Things get better for awhile then slowly change until you find yourself once again feeling undervalued and unappreciated. It wasn't supposed to be like this, but here you are, feeling the weight of disconnection and despair. At SBS Mental Health, I meet couples who are searching for answers, clarity, and hope. My role is to work side by side with you towards healing, understanding, and a renewed connection.
Welcome!
Hello, I'm Reinna Albornoz, a licensed therapist that uses Emotionally Focused Therapy and attachment science for couples. With over a decade of experience in the mental health field, I am dedicated to helping couples build stronger, healthier relationships. When desired, I integrate biblical Christian principles into our sessions, providing a faith-based approach to healing and growth.
During our sessions, I will help you and your partner identify negative patterns of interaction that have developed over time and work to interrupt those patterns so that healthier patterns can take their place. As a team we take time to work from a place of frustration, hurt and defense to softness, empathy and trust.
EFT can be effective for a variety of relationship issues, including building better communication, infidelity or affair recovery, and emotional distance.
“Distressed partners no longer see each other as their emotional safe haven. Our lover is supposed to be the one person we can count on who will always respond. Instead, unhappy partners feel emotionally deprived, rejected, even abandoned."
Dr. Sue Johnson
