About Ana-Rocío
Dr. Ana-Rocío Escobar-Chew is a Michigan-licensed LMFT with 18 years of clinical experience. She practices in both English and Spanish and focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns as described in her background.
She helps people who are facing family conflict, relationship strain, parenting pressures, or grief. She also assists with anger, depression, intimacy questions, and compassion fatigue. Her work includes attention to family of origin issues, attachment concerns, and mixed family arrangements like blended families.
Her approach centers on collaboration and building on strengths. In sessions she listens to what matters most, clarifies goals, and uses practical methods to address recurring patterns. That may include looking at how early family roles still shape reactions today.
Dr. Escobar-Chew draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method when relationships and attachment are central. She also uses Client-Centered and Solution-Focused techniques to help people identify next steps and try small, manageable changes.
She brings 18 years of practice to each case while working with individuals who prefer either English or Spanish. People who have immigration-related concerns, adoption and foster care questions, or caregiver stress often bring those topics into sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
How Ana-Rocío’s approaches translate to online work
Dr. Escobar-Chew often draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and core emotions in relationships. EFT helps people notice how they respond to closeness and conflict and supports new ways of connecting. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method to address communication patterns and improve interactional habits in partnerships.She combines those relational approaches with Client-Centered and Solution-Focused techniques so sessions can move between exploring feelings and trying specific practical steps. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest the path forward together.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, support shorter check-ins when needed, or allow people to meet without travel time. They can also let a person choose video or audio depending on bandwidth or comfort. The therapist will review which formats are offered and help arrange sessions that fit the client’s schedule and needs.
