About Jairo

Jairo Lozano-Lopez is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, family conflict, low self-esteem, and depression. He speaks English and Spanish and works with adults who want clearer communication and healthier connections. He aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive.

Jairo uses short, direct conversations to find what matters most to each person. He draws on techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.

Background and approach

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice difficult feelings without getting stuck. For couples and family-related concerns he brings in emotionally-focused therapy ideas to improve attachment and repair patterns of interaction. He pays attention to family of origin issues, blended family challenges, adoption and foster care dynamics, and immigration-related stress when those are relevant.

Sessions are shaped to individual needs. Jairo says treatment is a collaborative process where goals and methods are adjusted as progress is made. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every conversation.

With eight years of experience as an LMFT - licensed marriage and family therapist - he combines practical tools and honest conversation. His aim is to support people toward clearer choices, better communication, and a greater sense of direction in daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Jairo uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy among other approaches to support clients. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without fighting them, then choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can help when anxiety or avoidance gets in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and offers practical exercises to reduce symptoms and build coping skills. Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That plan can change as needs evolve, and he explains options in plain language so people can make informed choices. Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family routines and to keep momentum between meetings. The variety also allows clients to pick the way of communicating that feels most comfortable for them.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
