Diana Lugo - Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist

I am Diana Lugo, a Phoenix-based Marriage and Family therapist dedicated to helping empathic and caring individuals who seek mental health support while prioritizing their own needs. I understand the commitment it takes to care for others while also addressing your own well-being. As a committed military spouse for 24 years and a loving mom to two wonderful children, aged 18 and 12, I truly value the importance of balance in life.

I have a passion for helping those dealing with the many challenges that life can present! As a relationship therapist, I specialize in providing mental health support to individuals who need to heal from struggles such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life changes, and relationship issues. I will walk alongside you to help you discover the skills you need for relief. Additionally, I offer a listening ear to assist you in exploring, growing, and learning how to leverage your strengths to move forward.

I also support children and teens facing behavioral and relationship challenges, as well as their parents. I understand that parents can feel overwhelmed and exhausted while searching for solutions. I can help! I recognize how these challenges affect all aspects of life and will work creatively and supportively for both you and your child. Drawing upon my own experiences, Montessori training, and current education, I aim to find real solutions that make a difference.

For couples who feel disconnected and caught in negative patterns, especially those managing careers and family life, I offer my guidance as a marriage and family therapist. These times can feel isolating and disorienting. I will help you and your spouse understand your patterns and how your feelings and perceptions influence your responses. Together, we will find ways to enhance healthy communication and resolve conflicts with compassion and gentleness.
