“Lead with an open heart, and trust follows.”

Trust isn’t built through perfection or certainty.
It’s built through openness, consistency, and the willingness to meet others with care.

At Armonía, we see this every day — in therapy sessions, healing spaces, and moments where someone finally feels safe enough to soften. When people are met with an open heart, trust has room to grow.

If you’re navigating relationships, transitions, or inner work, you don’t have to do it alone. Support rooted in presence and compassion can make all the difference.

Some of the most important conversations don’t start with words.

As kids grow, their questions about the world — and about themselves — get bigger. And those conversations can feel hard for everyone involved. Kids may not have the language yet, and parents may not always know how to ask or respond.

Art therapy creates a different kind of connection. Through creating, children can express emotions they don’t yet know how to explain. Parents can begin to see what their child is feeling — fear, confusion, curiosity — without pressure, confrontation, or forcing a conversation before they’re ready.

Creating art together can strengthen trust, deepen bonds, and open the door to understanding in a way that feels safer and more natural for kids.

Christina OrtizKing Art Therapist specializes in art therapy for children, teens, and young adults, supporting emotional expression, identity development, and parent–child connection.

Healing doesn’t mean life suddenly becomes easy.

It means your nervous system learns how to hold more steadiness, more freedom, and more joy — even alongside grief or change.

Colleen Daugherty, MS, MA, LMHCA is a trauma-informed therapist at Armonía Counseling who works with adults navigating some of life’s most tender transitions: grief, divorce, emotional abuse, codependency, caregiver stress, and identity shifts.

Colleen’s approach is compassionate, grounded, and deeply respectful of each client’s pace. She believes healing happens in small, meaningful steps — not by pushing through pain, but by gently facing it with support.

She works with:
• Adults healing from emotional or narcissistic abuse
• Individuals experiencing grief, loss, or divorce
• Those struggling with people-pleasing and boundaries
• Adult children caring for aging or chronically ill parents
• LGBTQIA+ individuals seeking affirming care

Her work blends trauma-informed therapy, somatic awareness, mindfulness, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and nervous-system support to help clients reconnect with themselves and move forward with clarity.

If you’re interested in working with Colleen, you’re invited to reach out directly.

Healing is not a race — and you don’t have to do it alone.

Not all love looks like flowers and candlelight.

Sometimes it looks like:
• A partner putting their phone down and really listening
• A friend who checks in without being asked
• A therapist sitting with you in the hard moments without trying to fix them

This Valentine’s Day, we’re reflecting on the kind of love that grounds us. The love built through presence, attunement, and small daily acts of turning toward each other.

In her newest article, Donna explores the Gottman principle of “turning toward,” emotional connection, and what it means to love through presence rather than performance.

If this season feels joyful, complicated, lonely, or somewhere in between, this piece is for you.

Read here:

Explore how small acts of presence create deep connection. Donna Marino shares how attunement, service, and heart-centered leadership ground true love.

The new moon reminds us that growth doesn’t happen all at once.

As Alliom Yoga shares, new moon intention-setting isn’t about flipping a switch or forcing clarity overnight. It’s about honoring the void — the quiet, dark space where something new is beginning to take shape.

With the next new moon arriving on February 17, this is a powerful time to set intentions with patience and trust. Just as the moon gradually grows brighter over the cycle, our intentions unfold through presence, effort, and time.

Practices like sound healing, Reiki, breathwork, and trauma-informed yoga can support this process by calming the nervous system, activating intuition, and creating space for clarity to emerge naturally.

Alli offers private 1:1 and private small group sessions at Armonía Life Design, thoughtfully tailored to support intention-setting, nervous-system regulation, and embodied healing.

As we move through seasons of relationship, care, and connection, this truth becomes clearer and clearer.

Love is often felt most deeply not through advice or explanations, but through being with one another — fully, attentively, without needing to fix or rush.

At Armonía, presence is at the heart of everything we do.
In therapy.
In healing spaces.
In the quiet moments where someone finally feels safe enough to exhale.

Whether you’re navigating relationships, grief, transition, or simply longing to feel more connected — you don’t have to do it alone.

Addiction doesn’t erase who you are — it obscures it.

Kim believes something deeply important: every person is inherently good. Addiction doesn’t change that. What it often does, though, is pull people away from their values, their sense of self, and their belief in their own worth. Over time, that distance can turn into profound self-loathing.

Kim’s work is about guiding people back — back to their inherent goodness, back to self-respect, and back to a sense of integrity that was never truly lost.

She specializes in addiction recovery, trauma healing, and self-worth repair, offering therapy that is compassionate, direct, and rooted in dignity rather than shame.

“For it is in the giving that we receive.” — St. Francis of Assisi

This quote feels especially meaningful in the work we do at Armonía. Day after day, we witness how healing often unfolds not just through individual effort, but through connection, care, and shared humanity.

Giving doesn’t always look grand.
Sometimes it’s listening deeply.
Sometimes it’s holding space.
Sometimes it’s allowing yourself to receive support when you need it most.

At Armonía, we believe healing is reciprocal — what we offer in compassion and presence often returns to us as growth, clarity, and renewed hope.

If you’re seeking support during a season of transition, we’re here to walk alongside you.

Teen emotions are big because they’re new — not because they’re dramatic.

Christina OrtizKing Art Therapist reminds us of something essential: when teens experience heartbreak, loss of friendships, or identity confusion, it’s often the first time they’re feeling those emotions. Of course it feels overwhelming. Their brains, bodies, and sense of self are still developing.

Art therapy offers teens a safe, supportive way to explore these big feelings without needing perfect words — or turning to unsafe coping behaviors. Through creating, teens can layer meaning, explore different parts of themselves, and begin building identity in a way that feels contained and empowering.

Christina specializes in working with kids, teens and young adults, supporting identity development, emotional regulation, anxiety, and life transitions through art therapy and counseling.

January can feel heavy.

The pressure to “start fresh,” set goals, and push forward doesn’t always meet us where we actually are — especially if we’re grieving, burned out, or simply tired.

In her latest reflection, Donna Marie Marino, LMFT invites us to consider a different way forward:
not through striving or perfection, but through charity — as compassion, gentleness, and care for ourselves and others.

At Armonía, we see every day how healing begins when people are met with kindness instead of judgment, and connection instead of pressure. This piece beautifully names that truth.

If this season feels tender for you, we hope you’ll take a few quiet moments to read.

👉 Read the article:

In a season that often demands more, choose compassion. Discover how charity — to others and yourself — can be a healing force in hard times. A reflection from Armonía.

Reiki creates space for your body to do what it already knows how to do: heal.

Alliom Yoga describes Reiki as a gentle, supportive modality that helps the body return to its own intuitive healing rhythm. In a Reiki session, clients are invited to slow down, feel, and process — emotionally, physically, and energetically — without needing to force or explain anything.

Reiki can be especially supportive for those experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, or emotional overwhelm. When paired with sound healing, yoga, or breathwork, the experience often deepens: sound helps quiet the mind and activate relaxation, while hands-on Reiki offers warmth, grounding, and a felt sense of support in the body.

Alli offers private 1:1 and private small group sessions, thoughtfully tailored to each person’s needs.
