Evita Sanchez , LMFT

Evita Sanchez is a bilingual Latina licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Minnesota. She brings seven years of clinical experience to sessions and speaks both English and Spanish. Evita focuses on everyday struggles like anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship concerns while also supporting people facing trauma and low self-esteem.

Her approach treats each person as the expert in their own life story. She helps clients name their strengths and use those strengths to move forward. In sessions she listens for parts of a story that feel stuck and looks for small, practical shifts that lead to change.

Evita often uses narrative ideas to help people reframe painful events and see new possibilities. She also draws on solution-focused methods to set short-term goals and build momentum with concrete steps. These ways of working can help with body image, communication problems, attachment issues, and life transitions.

She is comfortable addressing topics related to gender identity and LGBT concerns, including gender dysphoria and relationship impact. Evita also supports clients coping with divorce, infidelity, family of origin issues, multicultural stress, prejudice, and questions about life purpose and midlife change.

Sessions move at a practical pace and aim for clear next steps. Evita encourages people to try small experiments between meetings and to notice what changes. She welcomes people who want a collaborative, straightforward therapist who will listen, reflect, and help plan the next move.

Online approaches that reframe stories and build solutions

Evita uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and retell their life stories so problematic events lose their outsized meaning. This approach is useful for trauma, identity concerns, and patterns that keep repeating. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which emphasizes clear, short-term goals and small steps clients can take between sessions to build momentum.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Evita will listen to your concerns, goals, and preferences and then suggest ways of working that suit you. Together you can try a method, see how it feels, and adjust the plan if needed so the work fits your life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or easier on days when being on camera feels hard. Live chat and text work well for short check-ins, quick problem-solving, and keeping momentum between appointments. These options let people fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep progress moving forward.
