About (contact me)Dr. Trevino is a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in psychoanalytic psychotherapy for individuals and couples. His approach to therapy involves understanding how difficult experiences from our past affects the way we feel and behave in the present. Our past experiences are often the reason we sometimes struggle with the same emotional and relationship problems throughout life. It is only through understanding our past struggles can we expect to achieve a lasting and meaningful change in the present.
