Dana Juarez

Dana Juarez is an EMDR-certified marriage and family therapist practicing in Southwest Oklahoma who has worked in the mental health field for over nine years. She earned a Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from Liberty University and is licensed to practice in Oklahoma as a marriage and family therapist (OK LMFT 1350).

Her therapeutic style balances empathy, respect, and collaboration with a direct, no-nonsense attitude rooted in her 20 years of service in the United States Marines, from which she retired as a Master Sergeant in 2012. Dana places the client’s goals at the center of the work and aims to build a relationship where people feel safe and comfortable sharing their feelings without fear of judgment.

She helps individuals and families address relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, self-esteem struggles, stress and anxiety, grief, intimacy-related problems, anger management, depression, and coping with life changes. Dana combines solution-focused work and cognitive behavioral therapy with trauma-focused approaches, using eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) or trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy when those methods are appropriate.

As a therapist, she will encourage, offer insight, and at times challenge clients in the areas they want to change. Dana is committed to supporting and empowering people to reach their desired goals and looks forward to working with those ready to begin that process.
