About me

I am a clinical social worker licensed in New Mexico and Idaho with over 24 years of experience working as a counselor for individuals and families. My work with youth and families is a vital part of my work. I have worked with adolescents on issues related to self-esteem, conflict, behavioral issues, and coping with loss and change. I have enjoyed supporting families as they work on strengthening parent-child relationships by improving communication, coping, and acceptance. I have a great deal of experience working in Native and Hispanic communities.

My role as your couples counselor is to help you feel comfortable and supported as you identify solutions that make sense for you to improve your relationship. I want you to feel comfortable with the process as you explore various options for improving and making the best of your life. I am trained in approaches such as cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. I use a trauma-informed approach to create an environment of safety, trustworthiness, collaboration, empowerment, and cultural competence.
I realize seeking counseling as a couple is not always easy. You have taken the first step to improve and create the life your partner deserves. I look forward to meeting you and being a part of your journey!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Cornelia (Connie) O'Marra. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Written on Jun 30, 2026 after therapy with Cornelia (Connie) for 1 month on issues concerning relationship

I like that she listens to my problems and tries to help understand where everything has started.
