Lolita M. Domingue, M. S., LMFT, Training Facilitator
Lolita M. Domingue, M.S., LMFT attended the University of La Verne and began her career as a marriage and family therapist utilizing her education in Gestalt play therapy and her own Gestalt psychotherapist as a role model for her work with preschool aged children at the Los Angeles Child Guidance Clinic. These years also nurtured her deep interest in attachment theory. In 1998 she began a private practice in Upland, CA and continued to enhance her Gestalt work with adults and children through continuing education, including attending the annual Interpersonal Neurobiology Conference (previously known as the Attachment Conference) at UCLA. Many years later her mentor saw Steven Vazquez, Ph.D., the developer of Emotional Transformation Therapy (ETT), demonstrate ETT at a conference and put together a group of therapists to be trained by him in California in 2011. Lolita was satisfied with the results she achieved with Gestalt work in her practice, but what she learned, observed and experienced in that first training ignited her passion for ETT. ETT is brain and attachment-based and Dr. Vazquez integrated both disciplines seamlessly in this effective intervention. At the time Lolita admits that she didn’t understand the brain science that serves as ETT’s base for its methods, but she could not deny the consistent results she saw in her clients: the facilitation of the emergence of implicit memory related to emotional trauma: a rapid reduction in often severe emotional distress; the spontaneous formulation of more functional and rational cognitive constructs; and extreme states of well-being. She matriculated through all five levels of ETT training, earned her Master Practitioner certification and began the process toward becoming a trainer. She assisted Dr. Vazquez and other certified ETT teachers as often as possible with their trainings to not only reinforce and enhance her knowledge and practice of ETT but to fulfill the requisites to become a trainer. ETT has become the thrust of her marriage and family therapy private practice, particularly when working with clients with complex trauma. She is certified by Steven Vazquez, Ph.D. together with Emotional Transformation Therapy International Association to train mental health practitioners in Emotional Transformation Therapy.
Over her years as a marriage and family therapist, Lolita has served as adjunct faculty teaching in the Counseling and MFT masters programs at the University of La Verne (ULV) and Loma Linda University (LLU) and continues to teach at LLU. She has presented numerous workshops on Gestalt Therapy, Gestalt Play Therapy, culture and ethnicity, working with African-American clients, attachment theory and introductions to ETT. Lolita has been an AAMFT Approved Supervisor since 2005 and has provided clinical supervision to trainees and associates for the past 20 years.
