Maria Elena Lara, Ph.D.

Do you feel distress about the direction in which your life is headed? Do you ever wonder why you can’t seem to enjoy life like others can? Call today for your free initial phone consultation. I can help! As a clinical psychologist, I can help you to understand not only why you feel debilitated and burdened, but how to overcome these challenges, and thus achieve greater balance in your life. I believe that together, we can make changes that will last, and give you greater hope for the future and a healthy sense of well-being. I am a licensed clinical psychologist offering individual, couple and family sessions from my Issaquah, Washington office. Additionally, I offer home visits, marathon sessions and intensive daily therapy if desired or needed. I work with children, adolescents and adults in a variety of areas. My orientation is eclectic, in that I use the technique that is most pertinent to the issue at hand, but my training is primarily cognitive-behavioral, which has consistently been shown in years of research to be the most effective therapeutic modality for achieving long-lasting results.
