Great to meet you!

My name is Nelsy Villalobos. I am a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience providing clinical social work services. I specialize in the treatment of Trauma, Anxiety and Depression by employing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices and Trauma Focused Therapy.

My approach to therapy

I utilize a client-centered, evidence-based approach that is tailored to the unique needs of each client. My primary technique integrates Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices to empower clients to take control of their mental health and live more fulfilling lives. My ideal client, the best match to my particular approach to therapy, is the person with trauma and abuse history, anxiety, boundary problems, those who experience chronic unhappiness, chronic depression, self-esteem issues, those having difficulty with life transitions or those who have experienced narcissistic and other forms of emotional abuse.

What you can expect from me

My goal as a licensed clinician is to create a safe and non-judgemental space where my clients feel supported and heard. There is a focus on building coping strategies to foster improved emotional regulation, long-term mental well being and to assist each client to better understand and navigate their current challenges.
