Hi, my name is Sheryl Torres. I'm an LCSW and I have a calling as a therapist to help those in need. The client-therapist connection is a key component of a client's success in therapy. I focus on helping clients heal from traumas and reduce their anxious and depressive symptoms.
I specialize in working with individuals (kids, teens, and adults). I enjoy working with these individuals and also encourage families to partake in sessions as needed to ensure continuity of care in the home. As an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist, I focus on first helping a client clear large or small traumas that may affect their daily living and relationships. Then I reinforce the healing and coping skills gained by using CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)
Goal setting in therapy is so fundamental to the client's success. As your therapist, I would need your input and full agreement on the goals of therapy to make the therapeutic process most beneficial. My goal as a therapist is to help my clients heal, learn the coping skills they learned in sessions, and use them in the real world. My hope and desire is for all my clients to heal enough to eventually not need therapy
