Psychotherapy is a unique experience, in that it is encouraged that you share all of your thoughts & feelings, to include those that you might withhold in other contexts. Ideally, you will have an experience of feeling affirmed/acknowledged, thoroughly listened to, and seen as a complex person. That said, it can take a long time to feel free enough to share yourself in this way, and it is important that we move at your pace, plus respect that there are reasons why certain pieces of you are protected away. Your symptoms/difficulties are there for various reasons. You lead the way; I will support you in your process.

I believe there is no single approach that can treat each client in all situations. We will work together to create goals to help achieve your individual/family needs. Some modalities used may include supportive counseling, solution focused counseling, or other evidence based modalities (Trauma Focused CBT). These services may be provided in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. I hope to encourage the use of positive problem solving skills, healthy coping skills, and self-expression skills. Together, we can work to meet your goals/needs to achieve your desired outcome.
