Potoula Diaz

Hello everyone and welcome!

I look forward to working with you on your difficulties and challenges, whether you have anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship issues. We will work together closely and you will be my best guide as to how to do things, because you know yourself best. I think that all of the above issues are related, and that by making some small changes we can get big results. I will help motivate you so that you can do the work that you need to do for yourself, and I will help you keep yourself accountable to achieve whatever would make you happy and whole.

I approach each new client with enthusiasm and curiosity, and I am prepared to learn from each new person I meet. We know that forming a strong positive relationship with your therapist is the most important factor in how well you will do in therapy, so it is important that you take the time to pick someone that you feel comfortable with. I like to ask a lot of questions and invite you to think for yourself, and use your own resources in solving your life's problems and building the life you want.

You can expect to get a lot of personalized attention and many questions. You can choose which ones to answer and how much to tell me. I will ask about your current strengths and what you are doing well, and if that's hard to figure out I will help you. We will set a small goal till next time. In therapy it is better to go too slowly than too fast. Finally, you can also expect a genuine interest in you as a person, and increased motivation to tackle whatever is going on with you.
