About Ana-Rocío
Dr. Ana-RocEDo Escobar-Chew practices from a client-centered stance that puts the person in the lead. She is a licensed marriage and family therapist, LMFT, based in Michigan with 18 years of clinical experience. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to help people feel heard and understood as they sort through hard moments.
She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Relationship and family concerns are a common focus, including communication problems, blended family issues, and divorce or separation. She also addresses parenting strain, caregiver stress, codependency, and intimacy-related concerns.
Her style is collaborative and strength-based. Sessions tend to center on where a person wants to go, what resources they already have, and small steps that can make daily life easier. She draws from emotionally-focused and existential ideas when exploring feelings and meaning, and she uses solution-focused strategies to set practical goals.
Clients who have immigration-related stress, adoption or foster care questions, attachment-related struggles, body image or shame issues can find direct support. She also works with people facing abandonment, family-of-origin wounds, and compassion fatigue.
Dr. Escobar-Chew offers services in both English and Spanish and accepts international clients. To begin, choose the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.
How core approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on meeting people where they are and following their lead; it helps when someone needs a steady, listening presence to sort feelings and options. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people name and shift the emotional cycles that keep problems going. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps that can be tried between sessions to build momentum and change.Deciding which approach fits best is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they pick methods and pace that feel useful and realistic for the client's life.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn't needed. Some people prefer video for face-to-face connection, while others find audio or text-based check-ins simpler on a hectic day. The focus is on making therapy work with everyday routines rather than adding extra burden.
