Malena received her Bachelor of Arts from Baylor University in Waco, Texas, and her Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Counseling from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. Malena’s approach to counseling emphasizes the importance of the therapeutic relationship as well as the importance of processing underlying hurt and behaviors that impede change. She works with clients of all ages but especially enjoys working with children through the process of play therapy. Often when children have major life changes in both environment and routine, there can be emotional and behavioral issues that arise. These issues can be addressed through the counseling process using play therapy. The purpose of counseling serves to provide an environment for children to process the changes in their life, as well as the accompanying emotions that can be difficult for children to cope with and understand.
