Catherine Carballeira

I am a licensed clinical social worker, chemical dependency counselor and trauma specialist with training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I use a variety of modalities-whatever works best for my clients, EMDR, including DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), Mindfulness, & Solution Focused Therapy, I grew up in a Spanish family as the eldest girl and know what it is like to be passed over! I am bilingual. There is nothing you can tell me that I have not heard before!

I use a variety of approaches and will work with my clients to choose the best approach, and you will lead the way!

Clients will feel empowered, confident and know that they are not alone. Clients will learn specific skills and techniques to use then they are stressed, overwhelmed or frightened. They can practice these skills during the week, so that they will be meeting their goals-the ones the client sets-even when we are not meeting. I offer empathy and unconditional positive regard, a concept that Carl Rogers made famous in his person centered therapy approach.
