Great to meet you!

Margarita is mindful that starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if it’s the client's first time. She creates a warm, welcoming space where clients can talk openly at their own pace. She helps clients understand themselves better, recognize unhelpful patterns, and build healthier ways of coping with anxiety, depression, stress, among other symptoms.

My approach to therapy

The approach I use is based on your needs,and values. I'm also open minded,flexible,and include your input in our sessions. Yes I enjoy humor too! Together, we will develop new coping techniques to empower you.

What you can expect from me

I create a safe and warm environment for my clients. I also like to end each session with a recommendations or "tools" my clients can use, so they feel equipped to overcome whatever stressors or challenges getting in their way.
