Ketty Dominguez, LMHC

Licensed Mental Health Counselor

Bilingual in English and Spanish

Welcome! I’m excited to be part of the Maslowe Psychological Services team, where I bring a holistic, compassionate approach to healing. My focus is on creating a safe and supportive space for you to reconnect with your body, mind, and emotions, so you can grow, heal, and rediscover your inner strength.

As a licensed mental health counselor, I integrate somatic practices, mindfulness, and insights from polyvagal theory to help you understand and regulate your nervous system. This allows us to gently process and release trauma, while also nurturing emotional balance and resilience. With a foundation in mindful awareness and gentle curiosity, I work collaboratively with you to explore your experiences, giving you the tools to transform your emotional and physical responses.

A core tool I use is the Managing Emotional States Effectively (MESE) Protocol—a unique approach that blends mindfulness, body awareness, and somatic techniques to help you process emotions and release trauma more easily. This powerful method supports healing, emotional regulation, and empowerment.

I offer a collaborative and integrated therapeutic experience, working closely with you to ensure you receive comprehensive support. Whether you’re healing from trauma, anxiety, or other emotional challenges, my approach provides a safe, supportive, and dynamic path toward transformation.

My approach is collaborative and non-judgmental. I will meet you where you are, tailoring our work to your needs, and helping you cultivate resilience, emotional balance, and self-awareness.

Topics I’m passionate about:

Medical diagnoses and chronic illness, and supporting caregivers.
Navigating prepartum and postpartum experiences, including fertility struggles, postpartum OCD, anxiety, and depression.
Healing from trauma and building emotional resilience.
Exploring assimilation and cultural identity.
Overcoming challenges in relationships, including romantic and familial dynamics.
Providing support for therapists navigating imposter syndrome and the emotional challenges of being in the helping professions.
Managing the pressures and challenges of parenthood.

Let’s begin this transformative journey together.

Let's Connect

Managing Emotional States Effectively (MESE)

As a therapist trained in the Managing Emotional States Effectively (MESE) Protocol, I offer a unique approach that helps you address overwhelming emotions and improve your emotional health. Drawing on principles similar to EMDR and ART, the MESE Protocol helps you achieve meaningful progress from the very first session, without the need to relive painful experiences.

The MESE Protocol stands out for its ability to:

Create Immediate Progress: You’ll experience positive movement from the very first session, allowing you to feel relief and a sense of control right away.
Adapt to Your Needs: Whether your emotional distress comes from trauma, anxiety, grief, or any other source, MESE offers a flexible, life-changing solution tailored to your unique situation.
Limit Emotional Exposure: Unlike traditional therapies, MESE doesn’t require you to revisit or discuss painful events. This allows you to heal without reliving the distressing experiences, making the process more comfortable and empowering.

The MESE Protocol can be integrated into therapy at any time, meaning you don’t need to come specifically for MESE. Whether it’s used as a standalone approach or as a complement to other therapeutic methods, it can help you achieve emotional relief and healing whenever you need it most.

In our sessions together, you’ll learn how to recognize emotional triggers, manage intense feelings in the moment, and cultivate lasting emotional resilience. Whether you’re struggling with past trauma, chronic stress, or simply want to improve emotional balance, the MESE Protocol provides an effective and compassionate pathway toward healing and growth.

Ready to take control of your emotions and experience real change? The MESE Protocol provides a straightforward, effective path to help you feel more balanced, in control, and at peace.
