As a licensed clinical psychologist I employ evidence-based treatments to help clients with improvement of identity issues, assertiveness, emotional regulation, low self-esteem, narcissistic abuse, ethnic or racial discrimination, or have gone through traumatic events. I employ Trauma focused, CBT, and EMDR to treat my clients. I specialize in assisting LGBT and transgender individuals, as well as those with Bipolar Disorder, PTSD, Depression and Anxiety. My typical client is a person who has experienced trauma, has self esteem and boundary issues, has problems maintaining relationships, needs help asserting self. Hablo Espanol!
Most of my clients struggle with identity issues, self-esteem problems, difficulties asserting themselves or with self-advocacy, anxiety, panic symptoms, triggers of trauma, cultural and ethnic background issues, and boundary issues. I am LGBT affirming, and have extensive experience working with minorities, as I am a minority myself.
If you are ready to change your life, remember, this may be the single small step that drives you towards a big change in life. You have nothing to lose, except for an opportunity to learn more about yourself and the world around you. Questions? Please send me an email and I am happy to help you. I hope to see you soon! Laura.
