Milena Lukic, MS, LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #100492
I have an MS in marriage and family therapy. For the past six years, I have been providing therapy for trauma survivors and co-facilitating support groups for survivors of domestic violence, adult males who were molested as children, and high-risk youth. I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an integrative psychotherapy treatment for processing of traumatic memories and other adverse life experiences and bringing them to an adaptive resolution. I also facilitate creative art workshops using a trauma-informed approach. I speak regularly at state and national conferences on trauma-informed issues, the impact of domestic violence on children, prevention of vicarious trauma, and adverse effects on brain development as a result of trauma. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and a member of American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy.
My responsibilities to you are to be authentic, supportive, and non-judgmental, and to
provide you with a safe and confidential space and tools that bring relief and cultivate resilience.
