About Me

Hello and welcome! My name is Libni Cortez and I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist dedicated to providing compassionate and faith based counseling to individuals seeking healing and growth. 

If you are reading this, you might be curious to see if we would be a good fit, so let me introduce myself. 

As a Christian and Latina, my perspective is deeply shaped by my faith and heritage. I believe in the transformative power of love and open communication.

I have spent ten fulfilling years in marriage and together we are raising three beautiful children. Like yours, my family is not perfect but I understand firsthand the joys and complexities that family life brings. 

Outside of the office, I am a firm believer in work-life balance. I deeply love spending my time with my three children, sharing laughter and creating lasting memories. Being a mom has been one of the greatest joys in my life and has transformed who I am as a person. 

On my free time I love reading books and listening to music. When I’m outdoors, you can find me going on walks with my family, going swimming, and visiting new parks and beaches.

Like everyone else, I have had my fair share of trials and tribulations to overcome. As you know, life can sometimes be very painful, lonely, and scary. Over the years, I have learned that suffering is a normal part of life and nothing to be ashamed of.

Personally, I have been able to experience emotional healing through a combination of my Christian faith, therapy, and a great support system. I am proud to say I have experienced a lot of growth in myself and my clients and have much to share with you if you are ready for emotional and mental healing. I do this work because I intimately know the peace and restoration that comes from therapy and my hope is to help others attain it.

I love what I do and view my profession as one of the great callings in my life. I believe we should never go through life bottling up our pain, hurts, and secrets. We are not meant to go through life alone, so let’s go through this journey together.

I am looking forward to connecting with you. If you believe we could be a good fit, please give me a call or send me an email!
