I am a bilingual LPC with experience treating women and children, trauma survivors, depression, anxiety, & behavioral issues. My focus is on providing a safe and supportive space where women and children age 8+ can identify and change unhealthy thinking patterns and behaviors.
I work from an integrative therapy approach with the frequent use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques. Throughout my career journey I have worked in both nonprofit and private practice settings and have found that although the experiences and the impact they create may be uniquely different from person to person, the underlying desire to overcome them is commonly shared by most. Knowing this allows me to recognize and validate my clients personal experiences while helping them uncover their ability to create the change they desire. As a therapist I meet therapist where they are and frequently use warm and genuine positive regard along with care-confrontation in order to help my clients move into a more action vs stagnation space.
After a phone consultation in which we will briefly discuss your needs and concerns and whether I’m a good fit for you, you will complete an insurance eligibility check provided you want to utilize your insurance benefits. Once the eligibility check is completed we will schedule an intake session where we can meet and begin the therapeutic process. You can expect to receive intake forms including consent forms and assessments to be completed and returned prior to your scheduled appointment. I find that this allows us to briefly discuss questions you may have while focusing primarily on your concerns and getting to know one another.
