Vilma E. Cea, M.A., LMFT

At the beginning the couples sessions were very helpful. After months of sessions, the service started to decline. My husband and I both felt that the counseling sessions were no longer helping. The last two sessions were very difficult and Vilma didn't seem to know how to suggest any helpful, creative ways, tools or support. I felt trust was lost with Vilma due to how she handled things. We decided to still have another session to give another chance but we still didn't feel Vilma was helping at all. The last couple of sessions we were angry at each other. Not united. Also, I didn't feel heard or supported by her. Vilma kept saying, "everyone is responsible for their own actions ". Which is true. However the whole purpose of seeking counseling is to gain a new insight from an expert and hoping to be provided tools to help us. Not a counselor to shame. For that, shaming is easy to find without paying a counselor.

At this point, both of us agreed it was time to find another counselor that we can trust, also be supportive to both of us and teach helpful tools.

I honestly cannot express how helpful working with Vilma has been. It feels like a comfortable conversation with a trusted friend and then you realize she’s led you to discovery without you noticing she’s had your “number” the whole time. I discover even more after the sessions are over. I completely trust her knowledge and intuition and i cannot recommended her enough. I worked with her as a relationship therapist for communication between my partner and me (she definitely helped us); and now I’m working with her on my own for self healing.

Vilma helped me through a very tough time in my life. Her use of ETT and neurofeedback is unsurpassed. I have experienced real healing with her help.
