Let’s Connect
Take the first step, and I’ll be there to meet you!
Hi, I’m La Keeta Behn-Vasquez, AMFT
An Associate Marriage and Family therapist dedicated to supporting your relationship with God, self, and others.
I’m here to create a safe and welcoming space where you can truly be yourself—there’s no judgment here! Building fulfilling relationships with God, yourself, and others takes intentional effort, and I will support you every step of the way. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and sensitive to your unique cultural background, focusing on attachment as a guiding principle. This overall approach can help you live a fuller and more present life. Ultimately, I’m here to support you in gaining a deeper understanding and expression of your emotions, which paves the way for personal growth and stronger relationships through Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I genuinely look forward to connecting with you as you begin this journey to explore and connect with new—and perhaps hidden—parts of yourself, your relationship with God, and your connections with others.
“…walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”
Ephesians 4:2-3

Let’s Work Together to Create the Relationship You Hope For…
“The most functional way to regulate difficult emotions in love relationships is to share them.” -Sue Johnson
I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an effective, evidence-based approach that brings couples and families closer together! It helps enhance relationship satisfaction and ease distress. Whether navigating conflicts, working through feelings of betrayal, improving communication, or reconnecting emotionally, EFT supports a safe, secure, and healthier connection.
When working with Christians…
I enjoy blending EFT with biblical principles that resonate with you. Whether you want to begin or end your sessions with a prayer, reference scriptures in session, or keep your focus solely on your relationship, I’m dedicated to honoring the best balance for you. Working with a Christian therapist makes you confident that I understand and respect your biblical beliefs while supporting you through the challenges in your relationships.
EFT is rooted in attachment theory; God attachment refers to how you feel connected to the divine. Exploring the relationship between EFT and God attachment can enhance the connections with God, yourself, and others. Combining EFT with a secure God attachment enhances healing by allowing you to draw strength from faith and your partner. This focus boosts emotional understanding and compassion in relationships. EFT nurtures bonds in relationships, and recognizing your God attachment helps you recognize and understand faith's influence on connections.
